Abstract
A method of performing a compression operation on data in a mobile communication network. An intermediate node located between a mobile terminal and a mobility anchor point node, receives a data payload. If the intermediate node has access to compression information required to perform the compression operation, it performs the compression operation to generate a modified data payload and sends the modified data payload to a next node. If the intermediate node does not have access to compression information required to perform the compression operation, it sends the data payload to the next node. The compression operation may be data compression or de-compression.
