Claim 10:
11. A wireless data network to use Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) to serve wireless User Equipment (UEs) that execute server applications, the wireless data network comprising:
Distributed Unit (DU) circuitry configured to execute an Uplink (UL) DU MAC that comprises an UL DU HARQ and the UL DU MAC configured to receive UL server data from the server applications in the wireless UEs, process the UL server data with the UL DU HARQ, generate UL HARQ Acknowledgements (ACKs) based on the UL server data, and transfer the UL server data to Central Unit (CU) circuitry;
the CU circuitry configured to execute an UL CU MAC and the UL CU MAC configured to receive the UL server data, process the UL server data, and transfer the UL server data;
the CU circuitry configured to receive Downlink (DL) server data for the server applications in the wireless UEs and transfer the DL server data to the DU circuitry; and
the DU circuitry configured to execute a DL DU MAC that comprises a DL DU HARQ, and the DL DU MAC configured to receive the DL server data for the server applications from the CU circuitry, process the DL server data with the DL DU HARQ, and transfer the DL server data and the UL HARQ ACKs for delivery to the wireless UEs.
