RObust Header Compression : Requirements on TCP/IP Header Compression
RFC 4163, “RObust Header Compression : Requirements on TCP/IP Header Compression”, is an Informational document published in August 2005 by L-E. Jonsson. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document contains requirements on the TCP/IP header compression scheme (profile) to be developed by the RObust Header Compression (ROHC) Working Group. The document discusses the scope of TCP compression, performance considerations, assumptions about the surrounding environment, as well as Intellectual Property Rights concerns. The structure of this document is inherited from RFC 3096, which defines IP/UDP/RTP requirements for ROHC. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
