In this case, if the required TB size, i.e., the size of the MAC PDU that the UE 605 will transmit at the next transmission time, is too large to transmit the corresponding MAC PDU over the persistent transmission resources, the Node B 610 can temporarily allocate more transmission resources to the UE 605 in step 635.

If no new TB size has been signaled, the UE uses the intact TB size received in step 705, and if a new TB size has been signaled after step 705, the UE uses the new TB size.
  • the UE determines in step 715 whether a desired transmission VoIP packet can be contained in a MAC PDU with the (updated) TB size without being fragmented. Assuming that the MAC PDU is generated by adding an H-byte overhead to the VoIP packet, if the TB size is greater than the size of the VoIP packet by H bytes or more, the UE proceeds to step 720, as the VoIP packet can be contained in the MAC PDU without being fragmented. However, if the TB size is not greater than the size of the VoIP packet by H bytes or more, the UE proceeds to step 725, because the VoIP packet should be fragmented.
