Patent ID: 8817987

Claim:
An encryption communication apparatus comprising: a receiving means to compute a packet loss ratio and a network transfer delay time through a received packet when the packet is received and generate network status report information for a packet size and a packet transfer period of key resynchronization information using the packet loss ratio and the network transfer delay time, wherein the receiving means comprises: a packet analyzer to compute the packet loss ratio and the network transfer delay time by extracting a packet sequence number and a packet transmission time from the received packet, a network status report information generator to determine a network status using the computed packet loss ratio and the computed network transfer delay time and generate the network status report information for controlling the packet size and the packet transfer period of the key resynchronization information, and a transceiver to receive the packet and transmits the generated network status report information; and a transmitting means to transmit a packet of the key resynchronization information in the transfer period by controlling the packet size and the packet transfer period of the key resynchronization information according to the network status report information received from the receiving means when data is input, wherein the network status report information generator generates the network status report information and executes at least one of: (i) decrement or increment the packet size according to an increment or decrement of the transfer delay time without changing the packet transfer period of the key resynchronization information when the packet loss ratio has been constant; (ii) decrement or increment the packet size according to an increment or decrement of the transfer delay time by decrementing the packet transfer period of the key resynchronization information when the packet loss ratio has been incremented and (iii) decrement or increment the packet size according to an increment or decrement of the transfer delay time by incrementing the packet transfer period of the key resynchronization information when the packet loss ratio has been decremented.
