Abstract:
A method transmits information in a communication system. The method includes transmitting information from a transmitting device to a receiving device through a communication channel, checking whether the receiving device has received the information without errors, and transmitting an acknowledgement notification from the receiving device to the transmitting device if the receiving device has received the information without errors. The acknowledgement notification includes an indication of a capability of the receiving device to receive further information from the transmitting device.
Abstract:
An Ethernet adapting apparatus for data transfer between a standard Ethernet data pump and an Ethernet medium access controller via telecommunication medium (4), comprising: (a) a dual mode media independent interface (9) which emulates in a PHY mode the standard Ethernet data pump and which emulates in a MAC mode the Ethernet medium access controller; (b) a data pump (10) connected to the telecommunication medium (4); (c) a data buffer (11) for storing at least one Ethernet data package to be transferred between the standard Ethernet data pump and the Ethernet medium access controller.
