Method and arrangement for improved link quality control
First Claim
1. A method of link quality control for communication links between a plurality of mobile terminals and a node in a radio communication system, said method comprising the steps of:
- providing at least one data block for transmission between said node and at least one of said mobile terminals,providing at least two measurement reports comprising measurements of the quality for a plurality of potential burst constellations on which to transmit said at least one data block, wherein said plurality of potential burst constellations comprises a sub-set of all potential burst constellations;
jointly selecting a respective burst constellation and a respective Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) for each said at least one data block based at least on said measurement reports; and
scheduling bursts for transmission on at least one available channel based at least on said jointly selected MCS and burst constellation.

Abstract
In a method of link quality control for communication links between a plurality of mobile terminals and a node in a radio communication system, providing (S0) at least one data block for transmission between said node and at least one of said mobile terminals, providing (S1) at least two measurement reports comprising measurements of the quality for a plurality of potential burst constellations on which to transmit said at least one data block, jointly selecting (S2) a respective burst constellation for each said at least one data block based at least on said measurement reports, jointly selecting (S3) a respective modulation and coding scheme for each said data block based at least on said measurement reports. Subsequently, scheduling (S4) bursts for transmission on at least one available channel based at least on said jointly selected modulation and coding scheme and said jointly selected burst constellation.

18. A system for link quality control of communication links between a plurality of mobile terminals and a node in a radio communication system, said system is configured to perform the following:
-
provide at least one data block for transmission between said node and at least one of said plurality of mobile terminals; further provide at least two measurement reports comprising measurements of the quality for potential burst constellations on which to schedule said at least one data block for transmission, wherein said two measurement reports comprise measurements of the quality for a subset of all potential burst constellations on which to schedule said at least one data block for transmission; jointly select a respective burst constellation and a respective Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) for said at least one data block based at least on said measurement reports; and schedule bursts for transmission on at least one available channel based at least on said jointly selected MCS and burst constellation.
