TL;DR
A relatively simple protocol is studied which is easy to implement and performs very well under a wide range of conditions and is shown to perform considerably better than the other go-back- N protocols, particularly in environments with a large number of receivers.
Abstract
In this paper we study some link control protocols for use in point-to-multipoint communication over broadcast links. We concentrate on automatic repeat request protocols of the go-back- N type and define, analyze, and compare three such protocols. A major contribution of this paper is a relatively simple protocol which is easy to implement and performs very well under a wide range of conditions. Our analytical models show that this protocol performs considerably better than the other go-back- N protocols, particularly in environments with a large number of receivers.

Some important elements of the basic system of the Ethernet system are highlighted, and the evolution of the design from a research prototype to the specification of a multi-company standard is traced.
IRE Transactions on Communications SystemsThe Stutter Go Back-N ARQ Protocol
98 Citations1979Don Towsley
The average queue length for an idealized ARQ protocol for such an environment characterized by high error rates and/or long propagation delays is derived and it is shown that for the case of low message traffic rates, the modified Go Back- N protocol approaches the idealized scheme in performance.

IEEE Transactions on CommunicationsMultidestination Protocols for Satellite Broadcast Channels
71 Citations1985Krishan Sabnani, Moshe Schwartz
Two retransmission procedures, the go-back- N (GBN) scheme and the selective repeat (SR) scheme, have been analyzed for data transfer from one transmitter to many receivers, and two Retransmission strategies are proposed, the dynamic retransmissions group reduction (DRGR) technique and the fixedretransmission group (FRG) technique.

The conventional go-back- N ARQ is modified so as to be applicable to point-to-multipoint communication by using a control block that indicates the occurrence of retransmission to all the receivers.
IRE Transactions on Communications SystemsA Broadcast Protocol for File Transfers to Multiple Sites
40 Citations1981Seraphin Calo, Malcolm C. Easton
A retransmission Protocol for a broadcast connection (point-to-multipoint) is proposed and its performance characteristics are considered and upper and lower bounds are derived and are shown to be virtually indistinguishable for many practical sets of system parameters.
