  • Publication number: 20170180329
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a receiving apparatus for preprocessing at least one segment data packet to a data packet. The receiving apparatus includes a packet parser, a data memory, a decrypt engine, a transmission engine, a header processing unit and a controller. The packet parser fetches segment-packet-header information from a segment packet header of each segment data packet. The decrypt engine decrypts an encrypted data of each segment data packet to obtain a segment payload and a QUIC private header including sequence information. The transmission engine transmits the segment payload to a specific location of a system memory. The header processing unit calculates packet information and updates the segment packet header stored in the data memory to generate a packet header. The controller controls the transmission engine based on the sequence information to output the packet header to the system memory for generating the data packet.
