FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: depending on communication type (e.g., VoIP, non-VoIP) such fields include a combination of a Segment Indicator (SI - which indicates presence of a whole SDU at beginning or at an ending), a Sequence Number (SN), a Length Indicator (LI - which indicates length of a service data unit); a length for the length indicator (LLI - to enable a variable size for the LI and notify a receiver regarding such varying size); a Segment Offset (SO - to designate resegmented packets for lost protocol data units); a length indicator for the SO (LSO - to enable a variable size for the SO); and Last Segment Flag (LSF - for resegmentation of RLC protocol data units).
EFFECT: number of service signals reduces by indicating different fields in an optimised wireless control header.
