Abstract

Within a user device to which a radio communication network infrastructure transmits data carried by a sequence of frames broadcast to the user device, each frame comprising a first section comprising data and a second section comprising redundancy information associated with the data of a predetermined number B of previous frames in the sequence, a number of consecutive lost frames is compared to a threshold dependent on the number B of previous frames with which said redundancy information is associated and encoding parameters that generate said redundancy information, and a request to retransmit at least one of the consecutive lost frames is sent to the radio communication network infrastructure if the number of consecutive lost frames exceeds said threshold.
