| Abstract: |
Disclosed is a method of transmitting ATM cells from a sending unit to a receiving unit on an ATM link wherein each of the ATM cells includes a header portion and a data portion. In the sending unit, a header portion is identified which is common to a set of subsequent ATM cells. Then, the common header portion is transmitted from the sending unit to the receiving unit followed by all data portions of the set of subsequent ATM cells. In the receiving unit, the original set of subsequent ATM cells is generated by using the common header portion.
