Abstract
A communication system (100) for selectively providing repeat messages includes a message transmission device (105) for normally transmitting messages a single time, for receiving repeat requests indicating that a previously transmitted message should be transmitted again, and for automatically transmitting future messages more than once in response to determining that a number of repeat requests exceeds a transmission threshold. A radio communication device (110) is included in the communication system (100) for receiving the messages and for generating a repeat request in response to determining that the previously transmitted message has not been correctly received.
