VERFAHREN ZUR ÜBERTRAGUNG VON NACHRICHTEN VERTEILT IN MEHREREN PAKETEN

摘要

Concerns a method for processing received packets in a transmission system comprising an emitter device and a receiver device, a message from the emitter being split into packets of fixed length for transmission to the receiver, an indication of message length N being transmitted with at least one packet relating to the message, characterized by the steps of: receiving packets and storing packets in memory according to a sequence number order of the packets; upon reception of an end-of-message packet, determining the number of packets necessary to contain the message based on the length indication; retrieving the determined number of packets in memory, backtracking from the packet having greatest sequence number and using these retrieved packets to reconstitute the message; discarding other packets in memory.
