Abstract

An enhanced data transport system and method for a mobile terminal are provided that may improve transmission rates. A data transport system for a mobile terminal includes a radio frequency unit, a data processing unit, a memory unit, and a control unit. The radio frequency unit establishes a radio frequency channel on the basis of a transmission control protocol parameter received from a mobile communication network. The data processing unit performs encoding/decoding and modulation/demodulation on signals to be transmitted or received through the radio frequency unit. The memory unit stores routines to execute a communication session and the transmission control protocol parameter. The control unit controls signal flows among the radio frequency unit, the data processing unit, and the memory unit, and configures a data transmission scheme according to the transmission control protocol parameter.

Claims

1. A method for data transport in a mobile terminal, comprising:

receiving a transmission control protocol parameter from a mobile communication network;

configuring a data transmission scheme from the transmission control protocol parameter; and

establishing a communication channel with the mobile communication network based on the data transmission scheme,

wherein configuring a data transmission scheme comprises;

checking at least one of a window size of the mobile communication network and a message segment size of the mobile communication network; and

setting the at least one of the window size and the message segment size of the mobile communication network as a transmission parameter of the data transmission scheme.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the transmission control protocol parameter is a system parameter defining a characteristic of the mobile communication network.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the transmission control parameter comprises at least one of a transmission window size, a reception window size, and a message segment size.

4. The method of claim 1, further comprising displaying the transmission control protocol parameter.
