Abstract
A method of forwarding data transmissions from a first network to a third network via a second network comprises receiving packets of a first type from the first network, segmenting each packet into packets of a second type that are transmitted to the second network, and producing and transmitting at least one encoded duplicate of each of the packets of a second type to the second network to allow a packet of the first type to be recreated in the event that not all the packets of the second type are received. In the event that a sufficient number of the packets of a second type and the encoded duplicate packets are not received to recreate the packet of a first type, the method determines a loss ratio that represents the number of packets not recreated relative to the number of packets transmitted during a selected time interval.
