Abstract

We present an analytical method called steady state function method (SSFM) to evaluate the performance of a full memory multidestination selective repeat (MSR) ARQ scheme. For a wide range of system parameters, SSFM provides a throughput closer to the simulation results. SSFM is also extended in a direct way to analyze the performance of a hybrid MSR ARQ scheme in which forward error correction (FEC) is employed in the MSR ARQ scheme. Analytical results shows that the hybrid MSR ARQ scheme largely outperforms the pure MSR ARQ scheme when the packet error ratio is high
