Abstract
In one embodiment the modem has a network interface, application interface, processor, and memory. The network interface exchanges radio data with a network. The application (or host) interface exchanges application data with an application (or host) processor. The processor converts a unit of radio data to a corresponding unit of application data. The memory stores each unit of application data received by the modem. The processor is configured to execute a selective discard function to reduce traffic by determining if a newly arrived unit of application data is a duplicate of a stored unit of application. In the case that the newly arrived unit of application data is a duplicate of the stored unit of application data, the processor is further configured to selectively discard the duplicate unit of application data in dependence on whether an acknowledgement of the data has been already recognized by the processor.
