METHOD AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM FOR SIGNALLING INFORMATION FOR OPTIMISING RATE CONTROL SCHEMES IN WIRELESS NETWORKS

摘要

A method of exchanging signalling information for optimising a rate control scheme in a mobile network, wherein data packets are transmitted over the network from a sender to a receiver employing the rate control scheme with a sending rate which can be adapted using feedback information from the receiver, comprising the step of exchanging PDP context information between the receiver and the network, signalling PDP context information to the sender; and adapting the sending rate using the signal PDP context information. The invention further relates to a corresponding communication system as well as to a sender and a receiver for use therein.
