DETERMINING A RATE AT WHICH UNITS OF DATA ARE RECEIVED ERRONEOUSLY

摘要

A method is implemented by a first radio node (30) for determining a rate at which units of data are received erroneously from one or more second radio nodes. The method comprises inspecting (110) data units received from the one or more second radio nodes for errors. The method also includes making (120) successive determinations of the rate at which data units are received erroneously from the one or more second radio nodes. Each determination must be made based on inspecting at least a minimum number of received data units for errors. The method further entails adapting (130) the minimum number of data units that must be inspected across determinations of different rates, such that determinations of different rates must be respectively made based on inspecting different minimum numbers of received data units for errors.
