BECAbbreviation for basic error correction in SS7 signaling. Mainly used for terresterial links. It is a non-compelled, positive/negative acknowledgement, retransmission error correction system. A signal unit which has been transmitted is retained at the transmitting signaling link terminal until a positive acknowledgement for that signal unit is received. If a negative acknowledgement is received, then the transmission of new signal units is interrupted and those signal units which have been transmitted but not yet positively acknowledged starting with that indicated by the negative acknowledgement will be retransmitted once, in the order in which they were first transmitted. |
