Abstract:
Disclosed are a method and apparatus for packet communication using header compression. The method includes applying a header compression protocol to generate a packet to be transmitted, determining whether the packet is dropped in a transport layer, and transmitting, if it is determined that the packet is dropped, a full packet having an uncompressed header.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatuses (including, but not limited to, User Equipment (UE) and Base Stations) for a UE to control a packet header compression function in a communication system are described. In one method, if a predetermined condition is satisfied while the packet header compression function is enabled, the UE transmits a request for disabling the packet header compression function to a Base Station (BS), and, if a response is received from the BS, the UE disables the packet header compression function.
