RFC 4077: A Negative Acknowledgement Mechanism for Signaling Compression

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

This document describes a mechanism that allows Signaling Compression (SigComp) implementations to report precise error information upon receipt of a message which cannot be decompressed. This negative feedback can be used by the recipient to make fine-grained adjustments to the compressed message before retransmitting it, allowing for rapid and efficient recovery from error situations.
