Transmission of data packets in a radiocommunication system using a common hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process

摘要

Data packets of a data flow are identified for transmission in a radio communication system with a data flow and/or individual service indicator enabling them to be allocated to the corresponding data flow for reception. A sequence number for the data packets in each data flow is added upon transmission to the data packet in order to reestablish the original order of the data packets of a data flow; the advantage thereof being that the data flows of several services can use a common HARQ process, whereupon the memory used for reception according to said HARQ process can be reduced.
