An HARQ method for guaranteeing a QoS in a wireless communication system is provided. In a transmitting apparatus using a HARQ for transmitting packet data in a wireless communication system, a retransmission controller determines the size of redundancy information for correcting transmission errors in packet data, and a transmitter transmits the redundancy information of the determined size upon request for a retransmission of the packet data. Transmission of redundancy information of a variable size at each retransmission satisfies the QoS required for each user, maximizes a data throughput, and allows for the efficient reception of an ACK or a NACK for the redundancy information.

What is claimed is: 1. A hybrid automatic retransmission request (HARQ) method for transmitting packet data in a wireless communication system, comprising the steps of: (1) determining the size of redundancy information for correcting transmission errors in packet data, such that a packet blocking rate required to ensure a quality of service (QoS) class of the packet data is satisfied and a data throughput is maximized; and (2) transmitting the redundancy information of the determined size upon request for a retransmission of the packet data. 2. The HARQ method of claim 1, wherein step (1) comprises the steps of: calculating a data throughput for a redundancy information size for each transmission number using the size of the packet data and an average transmission amount, and calculating a transmission failure rate for a redundancy information size for each transmission number using an error probability for each transmission number; and determining the size of the redundancy information for each transmission number such that the data throughput is maximized and the transmission failure rate does not exceed the packet blocking rate required to ensure a QoS class of the packet data. 3. The HARQ method of claim 2, wherein the data throughput is calculated by where η is the data throughput, k is the size of the packet data, Rmin is the size of a minimum data unit, xi (i=1, 2, . . . , N) is the number of minimum data units at an ith transmission, N is a maximum transmission number, and P(DdN) is a probability of detecting errors after transmitting a packet N times. 4. The HARQ method of claim 3, wherein the maximum transmission number is the ratio of D to RTT, D being an allowable time delay for the packet data and RTT being a round trip time between reception of an acknowledgement (ACK) or non-acknowledgement (NACK) for one transmitted packet data or transmitted redundancy information until the transmission of a next redundancy information or a new packet data. 5. The HARQ method of claim 4, wherein if the packet data or the redundancy information is transmitted in a time division multiplexing (TDD) method and an ACK or NACK for the packet data or the redundancy information is received in the TDD, the RTT is the sum of the length of a downlink frame, the length of an uplink frame, a downlink processing time, and an uplink processing time. 6. The HARQ method of claim 4, wherein if the packet data or the redundancy information is transmitted in a frequency division multiplexing (FDD) method and an ACK or NACK for the packet data or the redundancy information is received in the FDD, the RTT is at least greater than the sum of the transmission timing interval (TTI) of the ACK or NACK, propagation time, and processing time. 7. The HARQ method of claim 2, wherein the transmission failure rate is a probability of generating errors after transmitting the redundancy information a maximum number of times. 8. The HARQ method of claim 7, wherein the maximum transmission number is the ratio of D to RTT, D being an allowable time delay for the packet data and RTT being a round trip time between reception of an acknowledgement (ACK) or non-acknowledgement (NACK) for one transmitted packet data or transmitted redundancy information until the transmission of a next redundancy information or a new packet data. 9. The HARQ method of claim 8, wherein if the packet data or the redundancy information is transmitted in a time division multiplexing (TDD) method and an ACK or NACK for the packet data or the redundancy information is received in the TDD, the RTT is the sum of the length of a downlink frame, the length of an uplink frame, a downlink processing time, and an uplink processing time. 10. The HARQ method of claim 8, wherein if the packet data or the redundancy information is transmitted in a frequency division multiplexing (FDD) method and an ACK or NACK for the packet data or the redundancy information is received in the FDD, the RTT is at least greater than the sum of the transmission timing interval (TTI) of the ACK or NACK, propagation time, and processing time. 11.

The HARQ method of claim 1, further comprising the step of transmitting information related to the size of the redundancy information on a control channel. 13. The HARQ method of claim 12, further comprising the step of transmitting information related to an assignment of an ACK (acknowledgement) channel that delivers an ACK or a NACK (nonacknowledgment) for the transmitted redundancy information. 14. The HARQ method of claim 13, wherein the ACK channel assignment information includes information related to mapping between the redundancy information and the ACK or the NACK. 15. The HARQ method of claim 12, further comprising the step of receiving an ACK (acknowledgement) or a NACK (nonacknowledgment) for the redundancy information on a predetermined ACK channel. 16. A transmitting apparatus using hybrid automatic retransmission request (HARQ) for transmitting packet data in a wireless communication system, comprising: a retransmission controller for determining a size of redundancy information for correcting transmission errors in packet data, such that a packet blocking rate required to ensure a quality of service (QoS) class of the packet data is satisfied and a data throughput is maximized; and a transmitter for transmitting the redundancy information of the determined size upon request for a retransmission of the packet data. 17.
