This paper focuses on the header compression for wireless technologies with fixed link layer packet types. Exploiting specifics of packet transmission over air in this situation, a novel IP header compression scheme is developed. The novelty of the scheme consists in the unique CONTEXT repair mechanisms that ensured high robustness and at the same time does not degrade bandwidth savings. After the general concept of the novel scheme is introduced, it is illustrated by an example of Bluetooth technology. By means of extensive simulation study, we show the performance of the introduced approach. Simulation results verify the robustness of the novel scheme and its ability to deal with characteristics of the wireless channel.
