A NETWORK NODE, A WIRELESS DEVICE AND METHODS THEREIN FOR HANDLING AUTOMATIC REPEAT REQUESTS (ARQ) FEEDBACK INFORMATION

摘要

Embodiments herein relate to a method performed by a network node (110) in a wireless communications network (100) for handling Automatic Repeat reQuest, ARQ, feedback information from a wireless device (121) relating to downlink transmissions from the network node (110). The network node (110) obtains an indication of a downlink processing delay for the ARQ feedback information from the wireless device (121). Then, the network node (110) considers the ARQ feedback information relating to a downlink transmission from the wireless device (121) to be invalid when, according to the obtained indication of a downlink processing delay, the downlink transmission has not been processed by the wireless device (121). Embodiments of the network node (110) are also described. Furthermore, embodiments herein further relate to a wireless device (110) and method therein for enabling a network node (110) in a wireless communications network (100) to handle Automatic Repeat reQuest, ARQ, feedback information from the wireless device (121) relating to downlink transmissions from the network node (110).
