Methods and apparatus to use window alignment information to process acknowledgment information associated with transmitted data blocks

摘要

Methods and apparatus to use window alignment information to process acknowledgment information associated with transmitted data blocks are disclosed. An example method disclosed herein comprises receiving acknowledgment information piggy-backed with data when a first previously transmitted block is associated with at least one of a tentative acknowledgment state or a pending acknowledgment state, and advancing a transmit window when the acknowledgment information indicates that all previously transmitted data blocks including the first previously transmitted block have been positively acknowledged.
