We assume packets arriving out-of-order at the wireless receiver due to random retransmissions are resequenced before being released to the network. For this reason, an approximate model for the delay experienced at the resequencing buffer is also presented. In the light of the results obtained from the presented analysis, we propose a threshold for the aforementioned probability of failure making the investigated AMC scheme work at an overall performance close to that of the optimum policy. © 2015 IEEE.EnglishAdaptive modulation and codingHARQTCPCodes (symbols)ModulationQueueing networksTransmission control protocolActive queue managementAdaptive modulation and codingAdaptive modulation and coding schemesApproximate modelHARQProbability of failureTCPWireless receiversAdaptive modulationConference Paper10.1109/WTS.2015.7117239
