Abstract
A method is provided to detect a lost packet in an event-based communication system which uses a communication protocol without error correction or recovery. The method includes maintaining a plurality of counters for tracking an overall count of data packets transmitted, and a count of data packets transmitted for each event-type; and transmitting a sequence of data packets to at least one remote device. Each data packet includes information of an event-type from the plurality of different event-types and count information associated with the counters. The method further involves receiving a message from the at least one remote device that at least one data packet from the sequence of transmitted data packets is lost based on the count information from at least one transmitted data packet; and taking at least one action in response to the message.
