Abstract: Method and system are provided for optimisation of mobile data communication using byte caching. The method includes: intercepting data communications at a base station 2, wherein the data communications are between a user equipment 301and a network 360; and implementing byte caching 390 at the base station to optimise data transfer between the base station and a byte cache server 380 in the network at a peering point; wherein the network containing the base station supports mobility management of data transfer to and from the user equipment. The method includes providing a byte cache server as a transparent proxy with byte caching functionality where traffic for the user equipment is no longer tunnelled.
