Abstract: | This paper describes the design and performance of a novel adaptive hybrid ARQ scheme using concatenated FEC codes for error
control over wireless ATM networks. The wireless links are characterized by higher, time‐varying error rates and burstier
error patterns in comparison with the fiber‐based links for which ATM was designed. The purpose of the hybrid ARQ scheme is
to provide a capability to dynamically support reliable ATM‐based transport over wireless channels by using a combination
of our ARQ scheme (called SDLP) and the concatenated FEC scheme. The key ideas in the proposed hybrid ARQ scheme are to adapt
the code rate to the channel conditions using incremental redundancy and to increase the starting code rate as much as possible
with the concatenated FEC, maximizing the throughput efficiency. The numerical results show that our proposed scheme outperforms
other ARQ schemes for all SNR values.
