A method for reducing a number of bits representing an encoded communication signal including classifying frames of an encoded signal according to at least one characterization criterion selected from among a plurality of predetermined characterization criteria, and selecting a representation signal for each of the frames, wherein the total number of bits comprised in the selected representation signals is less than the number of bits comprised in the encoded communication signal.

Method and system for efficiently transmitting encoded communication signals

A method of forwarding signals over a cellular link. The method includes receiving, at a first base station of a cellular fixed network, a packet of signals having a data payload directed to a second base station, determining whether the data payload will be used by the second base station, and forwarding the entire packet if the data payload will be used and not forwarding the entire packet if the data payload will not be used.

Increasing channel capacity in fixed cellular networks

A method of transmitting signals along a communication path, by a first compression/decompression unit, which method comprises receiving first signals from a first direction along the path, determining based on the received first signals whether a second decompression unit is located along the path in the first direction, receiving second signals from a second direction. In the case it is determined that a second decompression unit is located along the path in the first direction, selecting a compressed or decompressed format for transmission of the second signals responsive to at least one additional parameter, such that the determination that a second decompression unit is located along the path in the first direction does not always bring about selecting the compressed format. Then, the second signals are transmitted in the selected format.
