Re: [AVT] RFC3558 header-free packet format question

[Magnus Westerlund <magnus.westerlund at ericsson.com>]

Hi Qiaobing,

As I understand it from when the format was developed: The header-free 
format exist to enable ROHC-LLA to be used and the resulting IP stream 
to be mapped onto a CDMA2000 bearer that only have room for the voice 
frames. As this configuration does not have any space for any extra 
payload headers the header free format was developed.

Cheers

Magnus
