When a data frame is lost or corrupted during transmission, the solution adopted by the stop- and-wait protocol of the data-link layer is overtime retransmission. An improved algorithm was proposed by utilizing the correlation in quantum entanglement and instantaneous transmission of quantum teleportation. When something wrong happened during the data transmission, the algorithm sends negative frame and the acknowledgement frame instantaneously, which reduces the minimum time interval between two successful data frame transmission. Compared with the classical stop-and-wait algorithm, quantitative analysis illustrates that our algorithm improves the data frame transmission efficiency.
