Abstract:

   This document defines how to compress Constrained Application
   Protocol (CoAP) headers using the Static Context Header Compression
   and fragmentation (SCHC) framework.  SCHC defines a header
   compression mechanism adapted for Constrained Devices.  SCHC uses a
   static description of the header to reduce the header's redundancy
   and size.  While RFC 8724 describes the SCHC compression and
   fragmentation framework, and its application for IPv6/UDP headers,
   this document applies SCHC to CoAP headers.  The CoAP header
   structure differs from IPv6 and UDP, since CoAP uses a flexible
   header with a variable number of options, themselves of variable
   length.  The CoAP message format is asymmetric: the request messages
   have a header format different from the format in the response
   messages.  This specification gives guidance on applying SCHC to
   flexible headers and how to leverage the asymmetry for more efficient
   compression Rules.  This document replaces and obsoletes RFC 8824.
