Abstract: The invention relates to an improved transmission protocol for uplink data packet transmission in a communication system. A receiver of a user equipment receives a Fast Retransmission Indicator, referred to as FRI.

A transmitter of the user equipment retransmits the data packet using the same redundancy version as already used for the previous transmission of the data packet.
