Abstract
The present invention provides a method for retransmitting a data packet in a packet network. Compressed data packets are sent from a first network entity to a second network entity. It is then determined if a compressed data packet has not been properly received at the second network entity. If the compressed data packet has not been properly received, the second network entity signals the first network entity to send an uncompressed version of the improperly received compressed data packet.
