Abstract
In a method and device for transfer of data over a data connection from a transmitter to a receiver by means of packets, repetition packets with respect to predetermined packets are transmitted given free transfer capacity The packets and their corresponding repetition packets comprise an identifier by use of which the receiver can identify the packets. Given a faulty transfer of a packet, the receiver can identify this quickly via the provision of the repetition packets and can introduce corresponding countermeasures This method is in particular provided for serial high-capacity data connections in which a faulty transfer of individual packets cannot be precluded in principle.
