{{Main | Go-Back-N ARQ}}
 
An automatic repeat request (ARQ) algorithm, used for error correction, in which a negative acknowledgement (NAKNACK) causes retransmission of the word in error as well as the next N–1 words. The value of N is usually chosen such that the time taken to transmit the N words is less than the round trip delay from transmitter to receiver and back again. Therefore, a buffer is not needed at the receiver.
 
The normalized propagation delay (a) = {{frac|propagation time (Tp)|transmission time (Tt)}}, where Tp = length (L) over propagation velocity (V) and Tt = bitrate (r) over framerate (F). So that a ={{frac|LF|Vr}}.
