Abstract

Selective-Repeat ARQ (Automatic Repeat reQuest) protocol is the most efficient error control technology in wireless because it allows the transmitter to retransmit only negatively acknowledges (NACK) packets. In this paper, by analyzing the transmission mechanism of SR-ARQ, the discrete-time Geom/G/1/ queue model is established sententiously based on equivalent delay under the condition that the numbers of packets entering the transmitter are assumed to be independent and identically distributed random variables. With the method of embedded Markov chain, the expression formulations of the packet mean waiting delay, system mean delay and channel utilization are explicitly obtained. And then, the sliding window length control model is built adaptively according to the change of transmission conditions. Furthermore, the influences of packet length, the successful transmission probability and packet arrival rate on system mean delay are analyzed by numerical simulation. The numerical simulation results show that the expression formulations are valid for SR-ARQ protocol.
