Abstract :
Two improvements in the design of retransmission (ARQ) systems are described which lead to simpler implementation and improved performance. One change simplifies the procedure for handling erroneous messages and repeat-request-bearing messages; the other simplifies the procedure for requesting retransmissions. The consequences of these modifications and the results of a comparative analysis with previous techniques are summarized.
