Abstract:

An apparatus and method for compressing and compressing text based messages. A TCCB layer is added to a mobile device and P-CSCF At the sending device, the TCCB compression method is invoked to remove all redundant header information contained in a message to be transmitted. When the TCCB compression method detects that a headers contents are the same as previously sent or received for a particular sequence, the TCCB method blanks the header contents. At the receiving device, when the TCCB layer receives a message with blank header contents, the TCCB decompression method is invoked to reconstruct the header from its cache.

Abstract:

A method and system for providing credit for participation in an ad hoc wireless communication network is useful for improving network efficiency. The method includes receiving at a first network node a first data packet transmitted from a second network node (step ). The first data packet includes payload data and credit claim data. The first node then determines that the credit claim data should be forwarded to a credit accounting authority (step ), so a second data packet is then transmitted from the first node to the credit accounting authority (step ). The second data packet includes some of the credit claim data. The first node then transmits a third data packet to a third network node, where the third data packet includes the payload data (step ).
