Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method and device used in a communication node for wireless communications. a first receiver, generates first information, and the first information indicates a buffer state of a first serving cell group; and a first transmitter, when the first serving cell group is in an active state, transmits the first information through the first serving cell group; and when the first serving cell group is in an inactive state, transmits the first information through the second serving cell group; wherein the first serving cell group and the second serving cell group are respectively an SCG and an MCG. The present application activates a first cell group by timely transmitting buffer status by an MCG in active state, thereby reducing the delay for data transmission on a first cell group.
