Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus for payload compression are disclosed. In one aspect, a determination is made that one or more fields of a packet to be transmitted are compressible based on a compression table. Prior to transmitting the packet and in response to the determination, the one or more fields of the packet are compressed based on the compression table. Compressing the one or more fields of the packet includes removing the one or more fields from the packet to generate a compressed packet. One or more bits in a header of the compressed packet are modified to indicate at least one compression entry in the compression table associated with the compression performed on the compressed packet.
