ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method and a system for generating a block acknowledgment for aggregated MSDUs (A-MSDU) transmitted from a sender to a receiver over a wireless channel. Upon receiving the A-MSDU, the receiver generates a MSDU Block Acknowledgment (MSDU-BA) that includes an acknowledgment for each received MSDU. Based on the MSDU-BA, the sender selectively retransmits only the erroneous MSDU(s) to the receiver.
