Abstract

This draft describes TCP/IP field behavior in the context of header compression. Header compression is possible thanks to the fact that most header fields do not vary randomly from packet to packet. Many of the fields exhibit static behavior or change in a more or less predictable way. When designing a header compression scheme, it is of fundamental importance to understand the behavior of the fields in detail.
