Abstract
Various aspects include methods for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/Internet Protocol (IP) (TCP/IP) packet transmission and compression of headers for TCP/IP packet transmission. Various embodiments may include a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer of a processing device applying least significant bit (LSB) encoding to a TCP Timestamp (TS) option of a TCP/IP packet using an offset parameter of zero to generate a compressed header in response to determining that a TCP TS field of the TCP/IP packet and a TCP TS field of a last TCP/IP packet transmitted have a same value. In some embodiments, a Timestamp Value (TSVal) field or a Timestamp Echo Reply (TSEcho) field of the TCP TS option of the compressed header may have a size of one byte.
