COMMUNICATION METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240179560 titled 'COMMUNICATION METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method and apparatus for communication involving packet header compression context during handover scenarios.

  • Target access network device determines handover of a terminal device and sends first information indicating packet header compression context to the terminal device.
  • First information helps the terminal device correctly decompress subsequently received data packets with compressed packet headers, improving communication reliability.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various communication systems where handovers between different access network devices occur frequently.

Problems Solved

1. Ensures correct decompression of data packets during handover scenarios. 2. Improves communication reliability by providing necessary information for decompression.

Benefits

1. Enhanced communication reliability. 2. Seamless handover experience for users. 3. Efficient data packet handling during handovers.

Potential Commercial Applications

1. Mobile communication networks. 2. Internet of Things (IoT) devices. 3. Industrial automation systems.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art may include existing methods for packet header compression in communication systems, but specific solutions for correct decompression during handovers may not be readily available.

What are the technical specifications of the communication apparatus described in the patent application?

The technical specifications of the communication apparatus, such as the supported network protocols, data transfer rates, and compatibility with different terminal devices, are not detailed in the abstract.

How does this technology compare to existing solutions for packet header compression in communication systems?

The abstract does not provide a direct comparison between this technology and existing solutions for packet header compression. Further details on the efficiency, performance, and compatibility of this technology compared to existing solutions would be necessary to make a comprehensive comparison.


Original Abstract Submitted

this application provides a communication method and a communication apparatus. the method includes: a target access network device determines that a first terminal device is handed over from a source access network device to the target access network device; and sends first information to the first terminal device, where the first information indicates a first packet header compression context, and the first packet header compression context is for compressing or decompressing a packet header of a data packet. in this application, the target access network device sends, to the first terminal device, the first information indicating the first packet header compression context, so that in a handover scenario, the first terminal device can correctly decompress a subsequently received data packet with a compressed packet header. this helps improve communication reliability.
