Abstract
A system for correcting errors in the transmission of data packets between a source and a receiver. The source sends data packets to the client unit and server unit. The system uses the client unit and the server unit to send a repaired packet stream to a receiver when an error is detected. The client unit detects errors in the packet stream and sends retransmission requests of the lost data packets to the server unit. The server unit retransmits the lost data packet to the client unit, which then corrects the packet stream by inserting the lost packet into the proper time order and transmitting the repaired packet stream to the receiver.
