Abstract
An apparatus and method for supporting Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) in a broadband wireless communication system are provided. A method of performing HARQ by a Mobile Station (MS) in a wireless communication system includes receiving a control message including resource allocation information, decoding the control message, if the decoding is successful, determining whether a previous control message is lost, and if the previous control message is lost, transmitting one of a null signal and a specific indicator through a response channel.
