The second sentence can stand some improvement as well:
1. There is no need for the word "only."
1. It is not necessary to say that the ACK frame was received.
1. Packets, not packet numbers, are acknowledged.

How about something like this:
> An ACK frame acknowledges packets in the same packet number space as the packet in which it is contained.
