IMPROVED LINK ADAPTATION METHOD

摘要

A method, where data is transmitted from a network node to user equipment in a succession of communication frames. An estimate indicative of the quality of the user equipment transmission channel in a reference communication frame is ascertained, and modified by an amount that varies in dependence on a configuration of the resources allocated to the user equipment in the reference communication frame. The modified estimate is used in selecting one or more connection parameters for a data transmission in a target communication frame. This improves the adaptation of the transmission parameters to the existing channel conditions.
