Method and apparatus for time efficient retransmission using symbol accumulation

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and apparatus for data transmission comprising the steps of encoding a first set of data symbols to provide a first set of encoded symbols and a second set of encoded symbols; transmitting the first set of encoded symbols in a first frame; encoding a second set of data symbols to provide a third set of encoded symbols; determining whether the first frame failed to decode; determining a minimum retransmission power level for the second set of encoded symbols if the first frame failed to decode; and transmitting the second set of encoded symbols and the third set of encoded symbols in a second frame if the first frame failed to decode. Efficient transmission of data is achieved by determining a minimum retransmission power level in the event transmitted encoded symbols fail to decode.
