Description
Jianwen Yang, Qiang Huang, and Yating Lin work on sending data when feedback keeps dropping out. Their paper appeared in PLOS ONE in 2026. A classic scheme uses instant feedback to fix errors with great accuracy. It assumes the feedback link never fails. Real wireless links fail often, though.
The authors adapt the scheme for feedback that arrives only at times. They cover clean feedback first, then noisy feedback. They work out how length, error odds, speed, and secrecy trade off. They also grade how well the schemes guard data from eavesdroppers. The math gives engineers clear targets. Satellite links, where feedback is patchy, are one use case.
