A data compression method and system is disclosed. In one embodiment, the data compression method includes receiving a data packet. Also, the method includes compressing the data packet using a confirmed compression history, wherein the confirmed compression history includes previously acknowledged data packets. Further, the method includes sending a compressed data packet to a downstream device. Moreover, the method includes detecting a delivery acknowledgement associated with the compressed data packet. Continuing, the method includes updating the confirmed compression history by incorporating the data packet information into the confirmed compression history based upon receipt of the delivery acknowledgement.

In a transport system, data is reliably transported from a sender to a receiver by organizing the data to be transported into data blocks, wherein each data block comprises a plurality of encoding units, transmitting encoding units of a first data block from the sender to the receiver, and detecting, at the sender, acknowledgments of receipt of encoding units by the receiver. At the sender, a probability that the receiver received sufficient encoding units of the first data block to recover the first data block at the receiver is detected and the probability is tested against a threshold probability to determine whether a predetermined test is met. Following the step of testing and prior to the sender receiving confirmation of recovery of the first data block at the receiver, when the predetermined test is met, transmitting encoding units of a second data block from the sender. If an indication of failure to recover the first data block is received at the sender, sending further encoding units for the first data block from the sender to the receiver. In some embodiments, the predetermined test is a comparison of the probability against the threshold probability and the predetermined test is met when the probability is greater than the threshold probability.

Epoch numbers are maintained in a pair wise fashion at a plurality of communication endpoints to provide communication consistency and recovery from a range of failure conditions including total or partial node failure and subsequent recovery. Once an epoch state inconsistency is recognized, negotiation procedures provide an effective mechanism to reestablish valid communication links without the need to employ global variables which inherently possess greater transmission and overhead requirements needed to maintain communications. Renegotiation of recognizably valid epoch numbers occurs on a pair wise basis.

A base station, mobile station, and/or other terminal device includes physical layer (layer 1) protocol and link layer (layer 2) protocol that both include automatic retransmission request (ARQ) operations. The physical layer and link layer include enhancements that interact with one another to cause the link layer to inhibit ARQ operations while error recovery operations are pending at the physical layer. A transmitter packages link layer packet data units into physical layer frames and transmits the physical layer frames. A receiver responds to indicate either successful or unsuccessful transmission. The transmitting physical layer waits for the response and initiates error recovery operations when required. The receiving link layer, when it detects lost data packets, inhibits its ARQ operations to allow physical layer error recovery operations to complete.

A decision as to whether a mobile terminal has transmitted an ACK, a NACK or a NULL from a received signal at a base station is made by successively eliminating one of the three possible transmitted symbols by sequentially applying decision rules that maximize network throughput by minimizing the sum of the weighted costs of making a decision based on the magnitude of the received signal.

Disclosed is a system and method for estimating retransmission timeout (RTO) in a real-time streaming applications over the Internet between a server and a client. Accordingly, the present invention employs retransmission timeout (RTO) in NACK-based applications to support multiple retransmission attempts per lost packet, wherein the RTO is estimated by an actual around-trip delay (RTT) and a smooth inter-packet delay variance.

A method for selecting frame encoding parameters to improve transmission performance for a transmitting frame being transmitted from a transmitting station to a receiving station over a transmission medium of a frame-based communications network, the transmitting frame having a header segment and a payload segment, the header segment being transmitted using a fixed set of encoding parameters such that the header segment can be received and decoded by all stations on the network, the payload segment being transmitted using a variable set of payload encoding parameters, the transmitting station sending the transmitting frame using one set of the variable set of payload encoding parameters at a time. The receiving station receives and decodes the header and payload segments of each transmitting frame. The decoding includes computing frame statistics. A plurality of sets are selected from the variable set of payload encoding parameters to form a possible set of payload encoding parameters. For each set of payload encoding parameters in the possible set of payload encoding parameters, an estimate of network performance characteristics expected if the transmitting station were to transmit the transmitting frame using that set of payload encoding parameters is generated based upon the frame statistics. A set of payload encoding parameters having optimized network performance characteristics is selected based upon estimates of expected network performance for each set of payload encoding parameters in the possible set of payload encoding parameters. The frame statistics include a slicer maximum squared error for the header segment and a slicer maximum squared error for the payload segment.

A method for distributing sets of collision resolution parameters to be used for resolution of network access contention events among nodes of a non-centralized media access control shared medium network. A set of collision resolution parameters is provided which includes a sequence of fixed numbers for resolving a single network access contention event. A single collision signal slot master node is identified when one or more candidate collision signal slot master nodes exist. Collision signal slot request messages are sent from client nodes addressed to all network nodes. Collision signal slot assignment messages are sent from the master node to the client nodes. A collision resolution parameter set to be employed by that given client node is obtained at a given client node from within a received collision signal slot assignment message. Collision signal slot acknowledgment messages are sent from client nodes addressed to all network nodes. Collision signal slot drop messages are sent from client nodes addressed to all network nodes.
摘要:
A single physical channel carries “fast feedback” information in such a way that each type of data is on a physical sub-channel. The sub-channels are not “logical” channels in that they cannot be separated by logical functions alone because some knowledge of the modulation mechanisms is required. Each sub-channel is independently channel coded (this is outer channel coding if an inner code is applied). The resulting code symbols from all sub-channels are then merged into one set of symbols. These code symbols can then optionally be concatenation interleaved and inner channel coded, if the performance enhancement is desired and the complexity is acceptable. The result is then extended by code symbol repetition to provide a total number of symbols greater than or equal to one of the possible quantities of symbols per frame supported by the physical channel, and then decimated (symbols deleted) to provide a number of symbols equal to one of the allowable quantities of symbols per frame. The result is then interleaved, and transmitted over the physical channel.
摘要:
A method to detect a lost status report determines that a second status report is required when an AMD PDU not negatively acknowledged in the first status report, an AMD PDU with a polling bit set, or the last negatively acknowledged AMD PDU is received after the expiry of a roundtrip timer and before all the negatively acknowledged AMD PDUs in the first status report are received. The method provides a deterministic way of detecting a lost status report, resulting in improved transmission throughput in a wireless communications system.
