SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPLEMENTING HYBRID AUTOMATIC REPEAT REQUEST RETRANSMISSION SCHEDULING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18078032 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPLEMENTING HYBRID AUTOMATIC REPEAT REQUEST RETRANSMISSION SCHEDULING

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for implementing a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process in communication systems. HARQ is a technique used to improve the reliability of data transmission by allowing for retransmissions in case of errors.

  • The method involves transmitting an initial transmission of the HARQ process from a transmitter to a receiver.
  • The transmitter then receives receiver decoding capability information from the receiver, which indicates the receiver's ability to decode the transmitted data.
  • Based on this information, the transmitter sets a retransmission duration, which determines the timing for any retransmissions.
  • Finally, the transmitter implements a retransmission of the HARQ process according to the set retransmission duration.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, where reliable data transmission is crucial.
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices, which often operate in challenging environments and require robust communication.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Improves the reliability of data transmission by allowing for retransmissions in case of errors.
  • Adapts the retransmission duration based on the receiver's decoding capability, optimizing the process for different receivers.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced reliability of data transmission, leading to improved overall communication performance.
  • Efficient use of network resources by adapting the retransmission duration based on receiver capabilities.
  • Increased flexibility and adaptability in communication systems, allowing for better performance in various scenarios.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method of implementing a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process. The method includes: transmitting, by a transmitter to a receiver, an initial transmission of the HARQ process; receiving, by the transmitter from the receiver, receiver decoding capability information; setting, by the transmitter, a retransmission duration based on the receiver decoding capability information; and implementing, by the transmitter, a retransmission of the HARQ process based on the retransmission duration.
