Abstract
In a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) wireless communication system, there is provided a method for error correction. The method includes receiving an original signal in an initial MIMO format, detecting an error in the original signal, and notifying a transmitter of the error detected in the original signal. The method also includes receiving a new retransmitted signal in a first retransmitted MIMO format, different from the initial MIMO format, the new retransmitted signal including at least a fraction of encoded bits of the original signal. The method also includes correcting the original signal by applying the new retransmitted signal to the original signal.
