Record 1 1996-07-12

English

Subject field(s)
  • Data Transmission
OBS

This class introduces two new concepts. Adaptive Packet Assembly and Data Phase Optimization, both of which further enhance performance. Adaptive Packet Assembly means that the size of the packets in which data is sent between modems is altered according to the quality of the physical link. The higher the line quality, the larger the packets. Data Phase Optimization means that repetitive control information is removed from the data stream to make packets more efficient. Both techniques when combined with Class 3, yield a protocol efficiency of about 120 percent.

Domaine(s)
  • Transmission de données
OBS

Ce protocole apporte deux compléments par rapport aux versions antérieures : suppression des informations de contrôle répétitives et correction en fonction de la qualité de la ligne et de la taille des paquets contenant les données. Cette technique multiplie le débit par 1,2. À titre d'exemple, un modem de 2 400 bps pourra atteindre une vitesse de transfert de 2 900 bps.
