  • Method for rerouting MPLS traffic in ring networks
    Patent number: 7388828
    Abstract: A method is described for fast rerouting, in case of a fault, packets of MPLS traffic in a ring-like network configuration, where the MPLS traffic is formed by one or more Label Switched Paths (LSPs) entitled to protection. The method comprises rerouting the MPLS packets to a protection path in the ring, providing the rerouted MPLS packets with additional labels to their respective label stacks, and then detecting the additional labels at network nodes included in the protection path. Detection of the additional labels further allows determining egress nodes of the rerouted MPLS packets and outputting the rerouted MPLS packets at their corresponding egress points from the protection path.

  • Method for header compression in packet-based telecommunication systems
    Publication number: 20050271033
    Abstract: A technology for transmitting compressed data packets via a packet-based communications path extending between a compressing node and a decompressing node, the technology comprises transmitting groups of one or more compressed packets wherein each two consecutive groups are separated from each other by single partially compressed packets. The compressed packets are data packets each having a compressed header and comprising a first compression context ID (CID) for further decompression of the compressed data packets, while the partially compressed packets are data packets each having a partially compressed header and a second CID.
