'An adaptive hybrid automatic repeat request system and method include transmitting a data frame having channel-coded data and a parity bit using an initial coding rate, receiving the data frame and performing channel decoding and correcting any error that exists. When the error is not corrected, an error degree of a corresponding frame is measured and a NACK message to which the measured error degree is added is transmitted to the transmitting terminal. A parity frame is retransmitted by channel coding a parity bit corresponding to a parity level determined in accordance with the error degree added to the NACK message, and is combined with a data bit of a data frame in which error correction fails. Channel decoding and error correction are then performed.'

Adaptive hybrid automatic repeat request method and apparatus

A power controllable wireless mobile communications system using an adaptive modulation and coding scheme includes a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) extracting unit which extracts a SNR from a received signal that is processed using a predetermined first modulation and coding scheme; a modulation and coding scheme determining unit which compares the extracted SNR with a first requested SNR for the received signal and determines a second modulation and coding scheme; a power control value determining unit which compares the extracted SNR with a second requested SNR for a signal of the second modulation and coding scheme and determines a power control value; and a signal generating unit which inserts a field indicating the second modulation and coding scheme and a power control command field for the power control value, into data to be transmitted, processes a resulting signal according to the second modulation and coding scheme, and generates a transmission signal.
