Abstract :
A selective-repeat automatic-repeat request (SR ARQ) system model in which packets arrive at the transmitter according to a general renewal process is analyzed. The overall delay of a packet in a system that operates under the SR ARQ protocol consists of the queuing delay at the transmitter and the resequencing delay at the receiver. The joint distribution of the buffer occupancies at the transmitter and at the receiver is derived, and the tow types of delay are compared using numerical examples
