Abstract

A method and device are described for determining an error rate during transmission from a transmitter/receiver station to a transmitter/receiver device and a measuring device. A first data block and at least one other and different redundant block is received by the transmitter/receiver device, decoded, and checked for transmission errors. If an error is ascertained in the first data block, another redundant block is requested, but in response the first data block is retransmitted instead.
