| Summary: | Logical Channel Prioritization (LCP) may be enhanced by accounting for Quality of Service (QoS) attributes of single hop and multi-hop paths. QoS attributes may be communicated as a QoS budget comprising a number of attributes, or as a single composite QoS "resistance" factor that quantifies the compounded impact of number of hops, latency, load conditions, and the like. The QoS budget or resistance may dynamically adjusted, and may be used by LCP to provide differentiated uplink resource allocation to data of the bearer or logical channel subject to different transmission paths between the transmitter and the receiver, for example. QoS budget and resistance information may be used to, e.g., enhance Buffer Status Report (BSR) and Scheduling Request (SR) operations. |
