Abstract(in English) This paper extends our previously reported low latency hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) using early retransmission before channel decoding to perform multistage judgement at the early-retransmission decision. The low latency HARQ method can mitigate the increased transmission latency resulting mainly from the delay time required for the channel decoding in HARQ by requesting early retransmission before channel decoding process is completed based on the channel state information obtained before channel decoding. However, the early-retransmission decision may include error, which results in unnecessary retransmission and consequently throughput loss. To address the potential throughput loss due to the decision error in early-retransmission request, we use the multistage decision in which the number of bits conveyed by the early-retransmission packet is controlled dependent on the measured channel state information before channel decoding. By setting the number of retransmit bits small when the observed channel state seems borderline to perform the early retransmission, we can reduce the throughput loss when the early retransmission is not necessary, as the initial packet is eventually channel decoded correctly. Simulation results show that the proposed method further improves the achievable tradeoff between the transmission latency and throughput, which contributes to realize the ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC).
