Abstract
An apparatus and method for using an Automatic Repeat reQuest (ARQ) in a Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) communication system are provided. In a transmitting method of a wireless communication system, a Media Access Control (MAC) layer creates a packet and transmits it to a physical layer, the physical layer generates a Hybrid ARQ (HARQ) burst using the packet received from the MAC layer and transmits it, the physical layer generates a HARQ ending signal and transmits it to the MAC layer when HARQ transmission of the packet is discontinued, and the MAC layer drives an ARQ retransmission timer for the packet in response to the HARQ ending signal.
