Abstract
A method of transmitting a status report from a receiving terminal to a transmitting terminal is disclosed. A receiving terminal generates a status report according to a first retransmission protocol implemented by a higher layer protocol layer and sends the status report to a transmitting terminal in one or more data units of a lower layer protocol. If the lower layer data units are not successfully received, the lower layer protocol provides a failure indication, referred to as a local NACK, to the higher layer protocol. In response to the failure indication, the higher layer protocol generates an updated status report and sends the updated status report from the receiving terminal to the transmitting terminal.
