Abstract:
1. A method operable by an infrastructure entity in a communication system, comprising: examining a data packet exchanged between at least two communication entities; detecting packet flow parameter information from the data packet; and determining packet flow treatment of data packets exchanged between the at least two communication entities based on the packet flow parameter information detected from the data packet, wherein the data packet exchanged is received from a mobile station and comprises a session initiation message indicating that a request has succeeded and a codec type for the data packets, wherein a header compression type is determined based on the codec type, and wherein when the codec type is determined to be a non-code-division-multiple-access codec then robust header compression is used and when the codec type is determined to be a code-division-multiple-access codec then link-layer-assisted robust header compression is used.
