A method is provided for transmission of packets (102) as a sequence of
data packets (104). A redundancy or check word (106) is composed for each
packet of the sequence of data packets. A transmission packet is composed
of a packet, a check word of a prior packet in the sequence of packets,
and a check word of a subsequent packet in the sequence of packets. The
transmission packets are transmitted in a sequence and received in a
sequence. After reception, the transmission packets are separated so that
the packets are compared with the corresponding check words transmitted
with adjacent packets in the sequence.
