Abstract:
1. A method for implementing a protocol adaptation layer (PAL) over Internet protocol (IP) communication scheme, comprising: establishing communication between a source device and a sink device; determining at the source device whether each of the source device and the sink device support communication of PAL data traffic; placing at the source device an IP layer and a transport layer between MAC and PAL layers based on the determining to establish a PAL over IP communication scheme; completing data communication between the source device and the sink device according to the established PAL over IP communication scheme, wherein a first portion of the data communication being supported by TCP and a second portion of the data communication being supported by UDP; and assigning the data communication respectively to the first portion and the second portion according to at least one of a relative priority, a relative importance and a relative latency-sensitivity of the first portion and the second portion of the data communication, wherein the PAL data traffic being WiGig 60 GHz PAL data traffic.
