1. A method comprising:
- determining a first value indicating a length of repetitive impulse noise events occurring on a communication system when transmitting data transfer units comprising data from a first device to a second device, wherein the first value indicates a length of the repetitive impulse noise events which corresponds to a length of a plurality of data transfer units;
determining a second value indicating a period length of the repetitive impulse noise events occurring on the communication system;
determining a parameter of a retransmission for the communication system based on the first and second value,wherein the parameter is used to determine a starting point for counting a number of consecutive correct received data transfer units, wherein the number of consecutive correct received data transfer units is provided in a retransmission return message.

Abstract
Embodiments related to retransmission in a communication system are described and depicted. In one embodiment, a retransmission entity repeats a transmission of a data transfer unit by the device after a predetermined number of other transmitted data transfer units has been transmitted. The retransmission entity may also determine whether a measure for a time period since the first transmission of the data transfer unit by the device has exceeded a predetermined threshold and to provide a final transmission of the data transfer unit based on the determining that the measure for the time period has exceeded the predetermined threshold.

5. A device comprising:
-
an entity to configure a retransmission of a communication system, the entity being capable to obtain a first value indicating a length of repetitive impulse noise events occurring on the communication system and a second value indicating a period length of the repetitive impulse noise events occurring on a communication system, wherein the first value indicates a length of the repetitive impulse noise events which corresponds to a plurality of data transfer units used for transmission in the communication system, the entity further being capable to determine a parameter of the retransmission for the communication system based on the first and second value, wherein a starting point for counting a number of consecutive correct received data transfer units is determined based on the parameter, wherein the number of consecutive correct received data transfer units is provided in a retransmission return message. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
