Performance of RTP/UDP/IP header compression in cellular networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
A number of real-time multimedia services are being designed to operate over mobile end-to-end IP networks. Such services require the use of the Real Time Transport protocol (RTP) in order to provide acceptable Quality of Service at the receiver. The resulting RTP/UDP/IP headers however constitute a significant overhead, particularly at low-bitrate speech applications. This paper examines current header compression techniques for multimedia services over IP and examines their performance in mobile channel environments.

Robust Header Compression for Real-time Services in Cellular Networks
The 3G mobile-IP networks currently being developed will support end-to-end enhanced real-time multimedia services. End-to-end IP enables very high flexibility for transmission over a mobile network. Conversational services require the use of the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP), which is typically deployed on top of UDP/IP, to facilitate acceptable Quality of Service at the receiver. The mai...
متن کاملRTP / UDP / IP Header Compression
This document describes lower layer guidelines for robust header compression (ROHC) and the requirements ROHC puts on lower layers. The purpose of this document is to support the incorporation of robust header compression algorithms, as specified in the ROHC working group, into different systems such as those specified by Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), 3GPP Project 2 (3GPP2), Euro...
متن کاملPerformance Tradeoffs for Header Compression in MPLS Networks
In this paper, we propose the use of compression techniques for RTP/UDP/IP/MPLS headers in MPLS networks to enable header compression over several IP hops. We consider the transmission of low-bitrate real-time traffic and analytical results illustrate performance tradeoffs regarding network utilization by user data. Header compression reduces the gross rate of low-bitrate streams and increases ...
متن کاملRObust Header Compression (ROHC): A Compression Profile for IP
The original RObust Header Compression (ROHC) RFC (RFC 3095) defines a framework for header compression, along with compression protocols (profiles) for IP/UDP/RTP, IP/ESP (Encapsulating Security Payload), IP/UDP, and also a profile for uncompressed packet streams. However, no profile was defined for compression of IP only, which has been identified as a missing piece in RFC 3095. This document...
متن کاملPerformance evaluation and implementation of IP and robust header compression schemes for TCP and UDP traffic in static and dynamic wireless contexts
Modern cellular networks utilising the long–term evolution (LTE) set of standards face an ever–increasing demand for mobile data from connected devices. Header compression is commonly employed to minimise the overhead for IP–based cellular network traffic. In this paper, we evaluate the three header compression implementations used by these networks with respect to their potential throughput in...
