4. APPLICATION OF ARQ METHOD5. CONCLUSION

In information theory and coding theory with applications in computer science and telecommunication, error detection and correction or error control are techniques that enable reliable delivery of digital data over unreliable communication channel. Many communication channels are subject to channel noise, and thus errors may be introduced during transmission from the source to a receiver. Error detection techniques allow detecting such errors, while error correction enables reconstruction of the original data.

The general definitions of the terms are as follows:

Error detection: is the detection of errors caused by noise or other impairments during transmission from the transmitter to the receiver.Error correction: is the detection of errors and reconstruction of the original, error-free data.

DEFINITIONAutomatic Repeat reQuest (ARQ), also known as Automatic

Repeat Query, is an error-control method for data transmission that uses acknowledgements (messages sent by the receiver indicating that the it has correctly received a data frame or packet) and timeouts (specified periods of time allowed) .

Automatic repeat request (ARQ) is a protocol for error control in data transmission. When the receiver detects an error in a packet, it automatically requests the transmitter to resend the packet. This process is repeated until the packet is error free or the error continues beyond a predetermined number of transmissions. ARQ is sometimes used with Global System for Mobile (GSM) communication to guarantee data integrity.

TYPES OF ARQ METHODS

1. GO BACK-n ARQ METHOD2. STOP AND WAIT ARQ METHOD3. SELECTIVE REPEATE ARQ METHOD

Go-Back-N ARQ Go-Back-N ARQ is a specific instance of

the Automatic-repeate-reQuest(ARQ) Protocol, in which the sending process continues to send a number of frames specified by a window size even without receiving an ACK packet from the receiver. It is a special case of the general sliding window protocol with the transmit window size of N and receive window size of 1.

Go-Back-NSender has to buffer all unacknowledged

packets, because they may require retransmission.

Receiver may be able to accept out-of-order packets, but only up to its buffer limits.

The sender needs to set timers in order to know when to retransmit a packet that may have been lost

Example

Stop-and-wait ARQ is the simplest kind of Automatic repeat request(ARQ) method. A stop-and-wait ARQ sender sends one frame at a time; it is a special case of the general sliding window protocol with both transmit and receive window sizes equal to 1. After sending each frame, the sender doesn't send any further frames until it receives an ACK (acknowledgement) signal. After receiving a good frame, the receiver sends an ACK. If the ACK does not reach the sender before a certain time, known as the timeout, the sender sends the same frame again.

Selective Repeat ARQ / Selective Reject ARQ is a specific instance of the ARQ

Protocol. It may be used as a protocol for the delivery and acknowledgement of message

units, or it may be used as a protocol for the delivery of subdivided message sub-units.

We can conclude by saying that Error detection and correction or error control are techniques that enable reliable delivery of digital data over unreliable communication channel.
