Abstract

Techniques described herein may be used to enable a base station to dynamically implement error correction procedures (e.g., Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ), Forward Error Correction (FEC), etc.) based on one or more factors, such as a level of network activity, network congestion, etc. When network congestion is high, the network device may implement an error correction policy that is directed to using available network resources to prioritize error correction procedures for transmission failures with high service requirements. However, when network congestion is low, the network device may implement an error correction policy directed to optimizing error correction effectiveness by allocating unused network resources (e.g., bandwidth, physical channels, etc.) to correct transmission failures.
