Radio communications apparatus and method used in a mobile communications system

摘要

A radio communications apparatus having a retransmission function that has a determination portion configured to receive an error detection result obtained for a first packet transmitted to a destination apparatus and determine in a first sub-layer whether the error detection result is a positive acknowledgement; a transmission portion configured to transmit a second packet following the first packet to the destination apparatus; a timer portion configured to measure a predetermined period of time after the second packet is transmitted; and a report portion configured to report to a second sub-layer that is an upper sub-layer of the first sub-layer that the error detection result is the positive acknowledgement when no message is received from the destination apparatus during the predetermined period of time, the message indicating that the error detection result is falsely determined to be the positive acknowledgement.
