Patent ID: 6965600

Claim:
A system for transmitting data between a first modem and a second modem across a packet network with reduced bandwidth and improved resistance to network packet loss, comprising: a first processor for connection between said first modem and a first side of said packet network for: providing a local interface to said first modem; demodulating a full duplex data stream from said first modem into bits; packetizing the bits into packets for transport over said packet network; and remodulating said full duplex data stream from a remote end, and a second processor for connection between said second modem and a second side of said packet network for: providing a local interface to said second modem; demodulating the full duplex data stream from said second modem into bits; packetizing the bits into packets for transport over said packet network; and remodulating said full duplex data stream from said first end side, wherein said packets include both new and redundant data which may be read upon said network packet loss.
