Abstract

A method and apparatus are described including receiving channel condition feedback from a device over a wireless channel, determining response to the channel condition feedback if a forward error correction coding rate is sufficient for the device to recover lost data, adjusting the forward error correction coding rate responsive to the second determining act and generating forward error correction packets using the adjusted forward error correction coding rate from source data.
