摘要:
A data link layer tunneling technique improves the throughput of high speed data in noisy wireless environments. Recovering lost frames transmitted between a packet sending unit and a packet receiving unit in a data communications system generally comprises (a) identifying a failure to successfully receive a missed frame at the packet receiving unit; (b) establishing a logical tunnel channel at the packet receiving unit to acknowledge the next successfully received frame; (c) starting a first timer at the packet receiving unit; (c) upon receiving a tunnel establishment request from the packet receiving unit, the packet sending unit resending the missed frame on the logical tunnel channel and starting a second timer; and (d) the packet sending unit resending the missed frame a specified number of times until receiving an acknowledgement from the packet receiving unit.

A method of recovering lost frames transmitted between a packet data sending unit and a packet data receiving unit in a data communications system is disclosed. When a frame is successfully received by the packet data receiving unit, it identifies a failure to successfully receive prior frames, i.e., at least one frame prior to the frame successfully received at the packet data receiving unit. The packet data receiving unit starts a selective reject wait timer and determines whether the number of frames missed so far is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold. If the number of missed frames is greater than or equal to the preset limit, the packet data receiving unit generates a selective reject message that includes a payload indicating a first missed frame and subsequent missed frames. If the number of missed frames is less than the predetermined threshold, the packet data receiving unit waits until the expiration of the selective reject wait timer, or until after the next determination that the number of missed frames meets or exceeds the predetermined threshold. It then sends the selective reject message to the packet data sending unit. Upon successful receipt of the retransmitted missed frames from the packet data sending unit, the packet data receiving unit generates a receive ready message and sends the receive ready message to the packet data sending unit.

A method of dynamically controlling congestion in a wireless communication system. The method generally comprises the steps of: (a) the medium access control layer detecting congestion; (b) the medium access control layer communicating a control message with the data link control layer indicating a congested state; (c) in the congested state, the data link layer placing frames received from a higher layer into a data link layer queue and suspending frame transmission to the medium access control layer; and (d) upon receipt of a control message indicating an uncongested state, the data link control layer sending frames to the medium access control layer.

摘要:
In a wireless communications system, a data link layer and a medium access control layer are connected to each other by data and control paths, where the data path is operable to exchange frames between the data link layer and the medium access control layer and the control path is operable to exchange control messages between the data link layer and the medium access control layer. The data link layer includes a queue for storing frames received from the medium access control layer and the medium access control layer includes a queue for storing frames received from the data link layer. The data link layer is adapted to pass new data frames from a higher layer relative to the data link layer into the data link layer queue and to suspend a retransmission timer upon a congestion message received from the medium access control layer, the congestion message being responsive to a level of stored frames in the medium access control queue.
