There is provided a data transmitting/receiving method in an HARQ data
communication system. To transmit a physical layer information stream
having a plurality of sub-blocks, each sub-block having an error
correction code, a QoS (Quality of Service), and a priority if the
sub-blocks has a different QoS, the encoded physical layer information
stream is divided into a plurality of slots. The slot data are
sequentially transmitted to a receiver in predetermined time intervals.
If an HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request) message for the initial slot
data is received from the receiver, indicating that at least one of the
sub-block in the initial slot data has a reception error and the other
sub-blocks are good in reception, slot data with a sub-block having an
error repeated within the number of the sub-blocks is retransmitted after
transmission of initial slot data.
