Abstract

There is provided a system and method for dynamically adjusting the maximum number of hybrid ARQ transmissions in a wireless system. More specifically, in one embodiment, there is provided a method comprising generating a plurality of hybrid ARQ sub-packets associated with a packet, wherein a transmitter is configured to transmit up to a maximum number of the hybrid ARQ sub-packets, detecting a degradation in transmission quality that affects the transmitter, and reducing the maximum number of hybrid ARQ sub-packets associated with the packet that can be transmitted by the transmitter in response to detecting the degradation.
