The conversion unit converts the frame into a transmission frame to be transmitted to another transmission apparatus when the error determination unit determines that the error exists. The deletion unit deletes the transmission frame. | 2015-09-10 |
20150256295 | METHODS OF COMMUNICATING DATA INCLUDING SHARED ACK/NACK MESSAGES AND RELATED WIRELESS TERMINALS AND NETWORK NODES - A method of transmitting data from a wireless network node over a MIMO channel to a wireless terminal may include transmitting first and second transport data blocks to the wireless terminal over the MIMO channel. Responsive to receiving a NACK message from the wireless terminal corresponding to the first and second transport data blocks, the first and second transport data blocks may be retransmitted to the wireless terminal over the MIMO channel. | 2015-09-10 |
20150256296 | Method of Handling Soft Buffer Size for a Transport Block and Related Communication Device - A method of determining a soft buffer size for a transport block comprises determining a basic unit for the soft buffer size according to a legacy soft buffer size for the transport block and a first parameter, and determining the soft buffer size for the transport block according to the basic unit and a second parameter. | 2015-09-10 |
