The patent US12063117B2 describes a wireless data transmission system designed to enhance communication reliability between a transmitter and a designated receiver. The system incorporates processing circuitry that establishes Quality of Service (QoS) and delay requirements for the communication link. In the event that the receiver fails to detect certain messages within a transmitted frame, the system is configured to add multiple copies of the undetected messages to subsequent frames. Notably, the number of copies added can vary between frames, allowing for a tailored approach to meet the specified QoS and delay requirements. The system continues to transmit these subsequent frames until a success notification is received or a predetermined limit on retransmissions is reached.

Additionally, the patent outlines methods for determining the number of allowed retransmission frames and allocated copies based on the QoS and delay requirements, as well as the average message error rate. The system can also employ frequency hopping during transmission and strategically place copies of messages at the leading end of subsequent frames. Furthermore, it allows for the addition of free space copies in frames that have available capacity. The copies of the messages are designed to be independently decodable, ensuring that even if some messages are lost, the remaining copies can still be understood by the receiver. This innovative approach aims to improve the efficiency and reliability of wireless data transmission in various applications.
