Technique for Header Integrity in a Relayed Radio Communication - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18021080 Titled 'Technique for Header Integrity in a Relayed Radio Communication'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a technique for protecting and validating the integrity of headers in relayed radio communication. The technique involves adding a token, which includes a temporary identifier, to the header of a data unit (DU) at the adaptation layer. This integrity-protected header is then attached to the DU obtained from the transparent layer and transmitted from the transmitter (TX) to the receiver (RX).


Original Abstract Submitted

A technique for protecting and validating header integrity in a relayed radio communication is described. As to a method aspect of the technique, integrity of a header of a data unit, DU, is protected at an adaptation layer for a relayed radio communication between a remote radio device (-RM) and a radio access network, RAN (-NN), or a further radio device (-RM), through a relay radio device (- RL). A DU is obtained at a transmitter, TX, from a transparent layer, wherein the relayed radio communication uses a protocol stack comprising the adaptation layer below the transparent layer that is relayed transparently at the relay radio device (-RL). The integrity of the header of the DU is protected at the adaptation layer of the TX by including a token in the header of the DU at the adaptation layer, the token comprising a local temporary identifier, ID, of the remote radio device (-RM), wherein the integrity-protected header is attached to the DU obtained from the transparent layer. The DU comprising the integrity-protected header is transmitted from the TX to a receiver, RX.
