The proposed fault-tolerant data communication setup has two main features: a consecutive transmission scheme that improves the reliability of message transmission, and an adaptive buffer management scheme that prevents message losses due to buffer overflow. These two features together reduce message retransmissions and produce better channel reliability and system performance. Simulation data confirm that the adaptive buffer management scheme is indeed an effective reliability measure to prevent data overflow
