    Abstract: A communication transmitter retransmits a Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocol Data unit (MPDU) to a communication receiver over a communication channel using a Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) retransmission scheme. The MPDU includes a plurality of information bits. The communication transmitter includes a processor configured to determine the MPDU to be retransmitted based on a Block ACK frame received from the communication receiver, the Block ACK frame indicating previously correctly decoded MPDUs at the communication receiver, and to generate a bit sequence to be transmitted to the communication receiver, wherein the bit sequence comprises the plurality of information bits. The communication transmitter further comprises a communication interface configured to transmit the bit sequence to the communication receiver for retransmitting the MPDU to the communication receiver.
