Claim 17:
18. A method of operating a Multiple Access Management Service (MAMS) receiver (Rx), comprising:
receiving a burst of packets from a MAMS transmitter (Tx);
generating a packet loss report (PLR) message to include an acknowledgement (ACK) number field and a number of lost bursts field, wherein:
the ACK number field is to include a next in-order sequence number (SN) that the MAMS Rx is expecting, and the next in-order SN is based on one or more detected lost packets, and
the number of lost bursts field is to include, for each lost burst, an SN of a first lost multi-access (MX) Service Data Unit (SDU) in a burst and a number of consecutive lost MX SDUs in the burst;

transmitting the PLR message to the MAMS Tx; and
receiving a First SN (FSN) message based on the PLR, wherein the FSN message includes an FSN field, the FSN field is an SN of an oldest MX SDU in a transmission buffer of the MAMS Tx.
