Abstract
Methods for determining a transmission timeslot at an endpoint in a communications network are provided. The method includes receiving a message having a received downlink strength at an endpoint; determining an uplink strength for the endpoint based on information in the received message; and allocating a timeslot for uplink transmission from the endpoint based on the determined uplink strength. Related endpoints and computer program products are provided.
