Abdellatif Benyouss et al., « Joint Coding/Decoding for Multi-message HARQ », HAL-SHS : sciences de l'information, de la communication et des bibliothèques, ID : 10670/1.qcyvei
In this work, we propose and investigate a new coding strategy devised to increase the throughput of hybrid ARQ (HARQ) transmission over block fading channel. In our proposition, the transmitter jointly encodes a variable number of bits for each round of HARQ. The parameters (rates) of this joint coding can vary and may be based on the negative acknowledgment (NACK) signals provided by the receiver or, on the past (outdated) information about the channel states. The results indicate that significant gains can be obtained using the proposed coding strategy especially where the conventional HARQ fails to offer throughput improvement even if the number of transmission rounds is increased.
