If station A wants to send the acknowledgment, it first waits for a short period of time to see whether a data frame needs to be sent, then decides whether to send an ACK frame alone or attach a data frame with it. If station A wants to send just the data, then the previous acknowledgment field is sent along with the data.
The acknowledgement function is used in the automatic repeat request (ARQ) function. Acknowledgement frames are numbered in coordination with the frames that have been received and then sent to the transmitter. This allows the transmitter to avoid overflow or underrun at the receiver, and to become aware of any missed frames.
Alice replies with an acknowledgment (ACK) message with acknowledgement number +, which Bob receives and to which he doesn't need to reply. In this setup, the synchronize messages act as service requests from one server to the other, while the acknowledgement messages return to the requesting server to let it know the message was received.
The initiating host A sends an RRQ (read request) or WRQ (write request) packet to host S at port number 69, containing the filename, transfer mode, and optionally any negotiated option under the terms of RFC 2347. S replies with an option ACK if options were used, and an ACK (acknowledgment) packet to WRQ and directly with a DATA packet to RRQ.
Use AOL Certified Mail to confirm legitimate AOL emails AOL may send you emails from time to time about products or features we think you'd be interested in. If you're ever concerned about the legitimacy of these emails, just check to see if there's a green "AOL Certified Mail" icon beside the sender name.
Automatic repeat request (ARQ), also known as automatic repeat query, is an error-control method for data transmission that uses acknowledgements (messages sent by the receiver indicating that it has correctly received a message) and timeouts (specified periods of time allowed to elapse before an acknowledgment is to be received) to achieve ...

Retransmission, essentially identical with automatic repeat request (ARQ), is the resending of packets which have been either damaged or lost. Retransmission is one of the basic mechanisms used by protocols operating over a packet switched computer network to provide reliable communication (such as that provided by a reliable byte stream, for example TCP).
