Abstract

A method for retransmitting packet, a data server using the same and a packet retransmitting system are provided. The packet retransmitting system includes a control server, a network switch, a plurality of upper nodes, and the data server. Terminal nodes download data packets provided by the data server through the upper nodes, respectively. The data server receives missing packet reports in which the data packets correspond to the terminal nodes via the network switch, obtains network topology information related to the terminal nodes from the control server, encodes missing packets in the data packets according to the missing packet reports and the network topology information, and transmits encoded packets encoded from the missing packets to the terminal nodes via the network switch and each of the upper nodes.
