Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method for a wireless device configured to perform outer-loop control of a Physical Downlink Control Channel, PDCCH, link. The method comprises obtaining, based on reporting from a UE, actual PDCCH success rate values indicative of the transmission success on a PDCCH for two or more of respective downlink control information, DCI, formats among several DCI formats, obtaining expected PDCCH success probability values indicative of DCI format success probabilities for the two or more DCI formats, obtaining discrepant values for respective of the two or more of said DCI formats by comparing the actual PDCCH success rate values to the expected PDCCH success probability values, determining a PDCCH link outer loop compensation factor by suppressing a higher among the discrepant values, and performing a PDCCH link transmission using the PDCCH link outer loop compensation factor.
