Abstract
A transport layer protocol for a compressed voice, facsimile and modem data includes a voice packetization sublayer; a voice transport sublayer; and a voice payload segmentation and reassembly sublayer. The voice payload segmentation and reassembly sublayer breaks up user data packets into segments. Each segment includes a header and a payload data unit. Voice data segments have payloads made up of voice data. Signaling payloads are made up of op codes, which define the type of signaling message, and related operands.
