Finite Block-Length Analysis of the Incremental Redundancy HARQ
Finite Block-Length Analysis of the Incremental Redundancy HARQ
This letter studies the power-limited throughput of a communication system utilizing incremental redundancy (INR) hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ). We use some recent results on the achievable rates of finite-length codes to analyze the system performance. With codewords of finite length, we derive closed-form expressions for the outage probabilities of …
