ILtePdcpRrc

module interface

Interface for the PDCP/RRC layer of the LTE Stack.

This module serves as an interface for the Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) layer. It exchanges IP datagrams with the upper layers and sends/receives PDCP Protocol Data Units (PDUs) to/from the underlying Radio Link Control (RLC) layer. Its primary responsibilities include header compression and connection identification.
