Abstract
A method of enhancing sessions or applications protocols which use successive transmission control protocol connections within a session on time division multiple access wireless packet data systems or wireline modem access protocols, wherein temporary block flows are chained. The present invention provides for a method and system for utilising sessions or applications protocols which use successive transmission control protocol connections within a session on time division multiple access wireless packet data systems or wireline modem access protocols. The method and system have the advantages of reducing the download time for web pages and reducing the number of random access contentions experienced.
Claims29
A method of enhancing sessions or applications protocols which use successive transmission control protocol (TCP) connections within a session on time division multiple access (TDMA) wireless packet data systems and wireline modem access protocols, wherein temporary block flows (TBFs) are chained.
A method of reducing the download time of a web page using sessions or applications protocols which use successive TCP connections within a session on TDMA wireless packet data systems and wireline modem access protocols, wherein temporary block flows (TBFs) are chained.
A method of reducing the number of random access contentions in TDMA wireless packet data systems and wireline modem access protocols using sessions or applications protocols which use successive TCP connections within a session, wherein temporary block flows (TBFs) are chained.
A method according to any preceding claim, wherein the sessions or applications protocols include hyper text transfer protocol (HTTP) and the TDMA wireless packet data system and wireline modem access protocols include global packet radio systems (GPRSs) and enhanced GPRSs (EGPRSs).
A method according to any preceding claim, comprising:
- utilising an existing downlink TBF to request a rendezvous point from a network.
A TDMA wireless packet data system or wireline modem access protocol which uses a method according to any preceding claim.
A TDMA wireless packet data system or wireline modem access protocol comprising means for chaining TBFs.
A method for enhancing sessions or applications protocols which use successive TCP connections within a session on TDMA wireless packet data systems or wireline modem access protocols, substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 9 of the accompanying drawings.
A method for reducing the download time of a web page substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 9 of the accompanying drawings.
A method for reducing the number of random access contentions substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 9 of the accompanying drawings.
A TDMA wireless packet data system or wireline modem access protocol substantially as hereinbefore described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 9 of the accompanying drawings.
