An effective go-back-N ARQ scheme for variable-error-rate channels
Yudong Yao · IEEE Transactions on Communications · 1995
In nonstationary channels, error rates vary considerably. The author proposes an effective go-back-N ARQ scheme which estimates the channel state in a simple manner, and adaptively switches its operation mode in a channel where error rates vary slowly. It provides higher throughput than other comparable ARQ schemes under a wide variety of error rate conditions.>
