Abstract
Apparatus and methods are provided for a wireless device and an access node connected with each other over a wireless connection that has a configured packet delay budget and that transports a packet flow established between the wireless device and another device. In response to determining that the packet delay budget of the wireless connection should be adjusted based on end-to-end packet delay measurement performed by the wireless device communication, the wireless device sends an adjustment indication to the access node, where the adjustment indication includes an adjustment value to be applied by the access node in order to change the packet delay budget of the wireless connection. The adjustment value is provided for power saving operation or coverage enhancement of the wireless device.
