Abstract
A method transmits packets over a single channel in a wireless communication network that includes multiple nodes. Access to the channel is gained in a transmitting node. Then, a block of packets is transmitted to a receiving node via the channel. The transmitting node receives only a single acknowledgement packet from the receiving node in response to transmitting the block of packets.
