Abstract: A packet compressor 12 operates under a reliable mode or an optimistic mode. A mode determination unit 31 counts the number of ACK packets or NACK packets received by a unit time X by an ACK/NACK packet receiver 14. When the counted number of NACK packets is larger than a predetermined value Y, the mode determination unit 31 switches the operation mode of the packet compressor 12 to the reliable mode. When the counted number of ACK packets is larger than a predetermined value Z, the mode determination unit 31 switches the operation mode of the packet compressor 12 to the optimistic mode.

Abstract: In a header decompression apparatus 709, a header decompressor 703 refers to reference information stored in a reference information manager 707 to decompress a compressed header of a packet received by a packet receiver 704. An error detector 702 detects a CRC error in the packet with its header decompressed by the packet receiver 704, and outputs only a correct packet. A successive error counter 705 counts the number of successive errors detected by the error detector 702. A successive decompression success counter 706 counts the number of decompression successes that successively appear. By referring to these counted numbers, an update request unit 708 transmits an update request to a transmitting side as required. The reference information manager 707 manages the reference information for header decompression. With this structure, the header decompression apparatus can request update of the reference information based on the state of the error.
