Methods of electronic communication device and network node, electronic communication device, network node, and computer programs
First Claim
1. A method of a network node of a radio communication system, wherein the radio communication system has capability of performing link adaptation by adapting one or more parameters of communication in view of a quality of a radio link between the network node of the radio communication system and an electronic communication device arranged to operate in the radio communication system, the method comprising:
- determining whether it is allowed or forbidden for the electronic communication device to perform link adaptation, wherein it is determined that link adaptation is forbidden for the electronic communication device when the network node determines that the electronic communication device will perform a link adaptation that will result in a conflict between one or more link adaptation parameter targets of the network node and one or more link adaptation parameter targets of the electronic communication device; and
transmitting signalling to the electronic communication device, wherein the signalling comprises an indication whether link adaptation is allowed or forbidden for the electronic communication device, wherein the indication from the network node that link adaptation is forbidden instructs the electronic communication device to readily cause no link adaption to be applied;
receiving, from the electronic communication device, a link adaptation status for the electronic communication device; and
adapting link adaptation operations based on the received link adaptation status.

Abstract
A method of an electronic communication device is disclosed. The electronic communication device is arranged to operate in a radio communication system, wherein the radio communication system has capability of performing link adaptation by adapting one or more parameters of communication in view of a quality of a radio link between a network node of the radio communication system and the electronic communication device. The method comprises determining a link adaptation status for the electronic communication device, and transmitting information related to the determined link adaptation status to one or more network nodes of the radio communication system. A method of a network node, an electronic communication device, a network node, and computer programs are also disclosed.

9. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising instructions which, when executed on a processor of a network node of a radio communication system, causes the network node to perform a method, wherein the radio communication system has capability of performing link adaptation by adapting one or more parameters of communication in view of a quality of a radio link between the network node of the radio communication system and an electronic communication device arranged to operate in the radio communication system, the method comprising:
-
determining whether it is allowed or forbidden for the electronic communication device to perform link adaptation, wherein it is determined that link adaptation is forbidden for the electronic communication device when the network node determines that the electronic communication device will perform a link adaptation that will result in a conflict between one or more link adaptation parameter targets of the network node and one or more link adaptation parameter targets of the electronic communication device; and transmitting signalling to the electronic communication device, wherein the signalling comprises an indication whether link adaptation is allowed or forbidden for the electronic communication device, wherein the indication from the network node that link adaptation is forbidden instructs the electronic communication device to readily cause no link adaption to be applied; receiving, from the electronic communication device, a link adaptation status for the electronic communication device; and adapting link adaptation operations based on the received link adaptation status.
