Method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving packet in a communication system

摘要

A method for transmitting a packet in a communication system is provided. The method includes dividing a data stream into data payloads of a predetermined size and adding a common header to each of the data payloads, to generate a source payload, adding a first Forward Error Correction (FEC) payload Identifier (ID) to the source payload and applying an FEC code thereto, to generate an FEC source packet for a source payload, adding a second FEC payload ID to at least one parity payload and applying an FEC code thereto, to generate an FEC parity packet for the at least one parity payload, and transmitting the FEC source packet and the FEC parity packet.

1. A method for transmitting a transmission packet in a communication system, the method comprising:
generating a source packet by adding a first payload identifier (ID) to an input transmission packet; generating a parity packet by adding a second payload ID to a repair symbol, the repair symbol being generated by encoding a source block; and transmitting the source packet and the parity packet as a transmission packet, wherein each of the source packet and the parity packet includes a transmission packet header, wherein the transmission packet header includes type information indicating if a forward error correction (FEC) encoding is applied to the transmission packet, and wherein the second payload ID includes information indicating a boundary of the source block.
