Claim 56:
57. A communication apparatus, comprising:
a data transceiver comprising one or more processors or electronic circuits, wherein the data transceiver is configured to receive channel-encoded data, wherein the channel-encoded data is divided onto a plurality of sub-data packets and transferred distributed according to a hopping pattern, wherein the data is channel-encoded and divided onto the plurality of sub-data packets such that, in a faultless transfer, only a first group of sub-data packets is needed to successfully decode the data, wherein transmission pauses between the sub-data packets of the first group of sub-data packets are smaller than transmission pauses between sub-data packets of a second group of sub-data packets transmitted after the first group of sub-data packets;
wherein the data transceiver is configured to receive at least the first group of sub-data packets, and to decode a part of the channel-encoded data received with the first group of sub-data packets in order to acquire the data;
wherein the data transceiver is configured to, if decoding the data has not been successful, combine, for achieving a higher coding gain, at least a second part of the channel-encoded data received with at least a second group of sub-data packets with the first part of the channel-encoded data and to decode the combination of the first part of the channel-encoded data and the at least second part of the channel-encoded data in order to acquire the data.
