Termination-Specifying ARQ protocol for Wireless Communications

摘要

A method of performing wireless communications. The method receives at a receiving unit a sequence of data blocks from a transmitting unit. The method also identifies at the receiving unit a first invalid sequential data block in the sequence. The method also communicates from the receiving unit a wireless message to the transmitting unit for provoking the transmitting unit to re-transmit a portion of the sequence of data blocks. The wireless message comprises a first field and a second field. The first field is for identifying the first invalid sequential data block. The second field is for identifying a last data block, from the sequence of data blocks, to which the wireless message applies.
