A novel retransmission scheme, considering both transmission rate and frame error rate, is proposed to alleviate the inefficiencies caused by head-of-line blocking and null padding problems during retransmission in IEEE 802.11be synchronous multi-link wireless local area networks. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme improves throughput by up to 200% over the legacy scheme by reallocating lost subframes and adding effective duplicate subframes to multiple links.
