Data communicating method for e.g. discrete multi-tone system, involves generating retransmission container in response to retransmission request, where data units are included in retransmission container

摘要

The method involves incorporating container stream into transmission data stream that is transmitted to a receiver, and receiving a retransmission request from the receiver, where the retransmission request specifying an original container in the transmission data stream is received with corrupted data. A retransmission container is generated in response to the retransmission request, where data units eligible for retransmission in the original container are included in the retransmission container. An independent claim is also included for a communication system, comprising a transmitter that transmits data transmission units over a transmission medium.
