ROHC protocol
The RObust Header Compression (ROHC) protocol aims at reducing bandwidth usage on network links with limited capacity or expensive costs, such as mobile networks or satellite links. It defines a lossless compression scheme for network headers. It leaves the network payload unchanged.

ROHC library
The ROHC library aims to implement the ROHC protocol as defined by the IETF in the RFC standards.

Applications
This section lists some of the applications based on the ROHC library. Some are developed within the ROHC library itself because they are useful as debug tools; some are developed in external locations to allow them to evolve at their own pace.
Supported applications:
