Abstract

La présente divulgation concerne un procédé de transmission d'un volume de données, un appareil et un support de stockage lisible. Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : dans un scénario dans lequel une entité PDCP transmet des paquets de données d'un premier service à au moins un type d'entités de commande de liaison radio (RLC), l'entité PDCP transmet à une entité de commande d'accès au support (MAC) associée audit un ou à plusieurs types d'entités RLC un volume de données de données à transmettre. Dans les modes de réalisation de la présente divulgation, dans un scénario de transmission de premières données de service, une transmission de délestage de trafic des données de service est obtenue au moyen d'une couche PDCP, et, étant donné le ou les types d'entités RLC recevant des trafics délestés, le volume de données des données à transmettre est rapporté à l'entité MAC associée, fournissant ainsi un mode de rapport efficace de volumes de données dans des scénarios de délestage de trafic de service XR.
