APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING/RECEIVING FORWARD ERROR CORRECTION PACKET IN MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

An apparatus and method for transmitting/receiving a Forward Error Correction (FEC) packet in a mobile communication system are provided. In the FEC packet transmission method, an FEC packet transmission apparatus transmits an FEC delivery block to an FEC packet reception apparatus. The FEC delivery block includes N payloads. Each of the N payloads includes a payload header. Each payload header included in each of C payloads among the N payloads includes packet oriented header information and an FEC delivery block oriented header information fragment. The packet oriented header information is applied to a related payload, and the FEC delivery block oriented header information fragment is generated by fragmenting FEC delivery block oriented header information applied to the N payloads.
