A broad-band wireless access (BWA) network may support high bandwidth, which may allow video multicast and broadcast services (MBS) over the BWA networks. The BWA network may comprise a base station and mobile subscriber stations provisioned in each wireless cell. The base station may select feedback leaders, which includes a sub-set of the mobile subscriber stations. The base station may send a first request to the feedback leaders and receive a response to the first request that is to indicate whether a packet transmitted prior to sending the first request is to be retransmitted. The feedback leaders may provide a feedback on the first channel, while watching a second channel. Also, the feedback leaders may provide feedback on the first channel while watching the first channel itself. Such an approach may enhance the reliability of the MBS over BWA networks.
