Abstract:
1. A method for re-sequencing data packets in a wireless communication system, comprising: receiving a plurality of sub-packets at a wireless communication device, the plurality of sub-packets being in a sequence different from an original sequence; assigning channel identifier information to each of the plurality of sub-packets as received; assigning packet identification information to each of the plurality of sub-packets as received; re-sequencing the data packets as received to the original sequence according to the assigned packet identification information; determining whether any of the plurality of sub-packets has associated packet identification information stored in a table using the channel identifier information, wherein the re-sequencing improves data throughput of the wireless communication device; determining whether a received sub-packet of the plurality of sub-packets can be correctly de-coded; if the received sub-packet can be correctly decoded, determining whether such sub-packet has a predetermined packet identification information; if the received sub-packet cannot be correctly decoded and such sub-packet has no predetermined packet identification information, determining packet identification information for such sub-packet.
