Abstract
For communication systems, a good error control technology is expected to get higher data transmission rate without reducing the quality of service. This paper presents a Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) scheme based on Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) codes to improve the ability of error correction. We divide the file into several segments, i.e., information packets and get a check packet using a kind of MDS codes before we transmit the file. Then we try our best to recover the file with the help of the check packet and information packets at the receiver. It is shown that our proposed HARQ scheme has better Block Error Rate (BLER) performance when compared to the traditional HARQ scheme, but the average slots cost per file does not increase significantly.
