English to French Tech/Engineering Patents (in a patent) METHOD FOR HANDLING TIMERS AFTER AN RLC RESET OR RE-ESTABLISHMENT IN A WIRELESS COMMINICATIONS SYSTEM

the Timer_Poll_Prohibit timer is started when a first poll is sent out and a second poll is not allowed to send before the Timer_Poll_Prohibit timer expires. According to the current RLC reset procedure for acknowledged mode, all timers except for a Timer_RST timer are stopped for each peer
RLC AM entity upon completion of the reset procedure for that entity. Therefore, Timer_Poll, Timer_Poll_Prohibit, Timer_EPC,' Timer_Discard, Timer_Poll_Periodic, Timer_Status_Prohibit, Timer_Status_Periodic, and Timer_MRW are all stopped during a reset procedure.

The Timer_Poll_Periodic timer is used by the RLC AM entity 14 to poll its peer RLC AM entity 24 to send a STATUS PDU. When the Timer_Poll_Periodic timer of the RLC AM entity 14 expires, a poll request is send to the RLC AM entity 24 asking for a STATUS PDU to be sent back to the RLC AM entity 14.
