Description:
data_handler is a module like file, which handles all the ARQ related parts.
Because of the fact, that we need to use it from both directions,
socket.py and modem.py ( TX and RX ), I was not able, to move it to a class system, yet.
Global variables are needed, because we need to save our ack state for example, which needs to 
be accessable by several functions.
If we want to use global varialbes within a multithreaded environment,
we need to declare every needed variable in every function, so the threading module can 
detect and use them.

From time to time I try to reduce the amount of application wide variables within static. module
and moving them to module wide globals
