摘要:
A mobile station (100) and a compression/decompression node in a wireless network (5), preferably the GGSN 30 (30), agree on whether to apply compression/decompression, and what compression/decompression scheme to use either by pre-configuration (when the GGSN 30 is in the home network of the mobile terminal) or by signalling (when the GGSN 30 is in a visited or a roamed-to network). Additional information, such as a profile-specific dictionary, may be used to increase the compression efficiency, particularly during start-up. Dynamic data can also be accommodated. The compression/decompression may be turned on and off on a packet-by-packet basis, depending on whether the compression actually results in a smaller packet. A compressed/uncompressed indicator bit or bits can be inserted explicitly on a per packet basis, and/or the compressed/uncompressed indication can be derived implicitly. A desired data compression/decompression algorithm, or any desired Proprietary Feature, can be signaled, possible without requiring standardization changes, by using a Packet Data Protocol PDP Context Activation message with a predetermined Access Point Name (APN) message information element that is sent from a first network element to a second network element for at least identifying the desired compression/decompression algorithm. It another embodiment, for the case where Proprietary Feature capability is exchanged between a RAN and a UE network element, a transmission of an extension to a UE Capability Enquiry message is sent to the UE for identifying the Proprietary Feature.

Various example embodiments are disclosed relating to contention window management in relay networks. In an example embodiment, a data unit transmitted from a network node based on a first contention window associated with a first network station may be received, for example, by the first network station located, for example, on a first level. The data unit may be forwarded to a second network station based on a second contention window associated with the second network station. The second network station may, for example, be located on a second level. The first network station may, for example, include a relay station and the second network station may, for example, include a base station.

摘要:
The present invention provides an enhanced H-ARQ scheme that optimizes bandwidth utilization and spectrum efficiency. When an H-ARQ attempt is unsuccessful due to loss or error over a hop between the BS and MS/SS, then only the first node in the hop chain that fails to decode the packet transmits another H-ARQ attempt. The BS determines the first node that fails on decoding based on certain information such as the feedback information sent from the nodes on the path. The previous node of the failed node is then instructed to retransmit by the BS.

摘要:
The link layer (68, 64) of the sending end of a wireless link (66) is enhanced (10, 74) by providing a mechanism for discriminating (36, 38; 79, 82) between special, critical or otherwise important packets from among a plurality of packets send over the wireless link. Special link layer treatment (42; 89) is accorded to such special, critical or otherwise important packets, while the remaining packets are subjected to normal link layer treatment (44; 86) before transmission over the wireless link.
摘要:
A method and equipment for accelerating throughput of communication segments from a sender (30) to a receiver (40) each of which include a protocol layer (30a 40a) for providing such segments, the method in case of TCP including a first step (20a) in which the sender protocol layer (30a) initializes a congestion window (cwnd) to some initial size (iwnd) and increases the congestion window by one segment each time it receives an ACK, but upon receiving an indication of low congestion, performs a step (20c) of accelerated start in which it sets a slow start threshold (SSTHRES) to a standard initial value (typically 65535) and re-initializes cwnd to a new value, and the sender protocol layer (30a) then increments cwnd at one or another predetermined rate—depending on whether the start immediately follows a new connection or instead follows a transfer of an existing connection to a new path—in respect to received ACKs.

The invention proposes a method for controlling a packet transmission between a sender and a receiver sent via a packet transport protocol, the receiver being a mobile network element, comprising the steps of detecting whether a mobility event has occurred, detecting whether a downlink packet loss has occurred, and providing, in case a mobility event and a packet loss has been detected, an indication to the sender that a packet loss due to mobility has occurred.
摘要:
The present invention concerns a data communication method for communicating packetized data via an interface between a transmitter and a receiver, wherein communication relies on a layered communication protocol stack comprising at least two protocol layers of different hierarchy level, wherein at least data communication on a lower one of the layers adopts a retransmission scheme for data packets for which an acknowledgment of receipt was not received at the transmitter, the method comprising the steps of initializing the retransmission scheme of the lower one of the layers by setting a condition parameter, wherein fulfilling the condition defined by the condition parameter represents an indication as to how to control the retransmission scheme, wherein initializing comprises setting said condition parameter of the lower one of the layers according to information forwarded from the higher one of said layers to the lower one of said layers, transmitting packet data from the transmitter via the interface to the receiver according to the retransmission scheme of the lower one of the layers, detecting that the condition is fulfilled during transmitting, and controlling said retransmission scheme of the lower one of said layers in response to the detecting.
