Abstract
The present disclosure relates to methods for operating a network node, as well as corresponding network nodes, computer programs, computer program products, and computer-readable media. The method comprises attempting to obtain a scheduled uplink transmission from a transmitter. In response to successful decoding at the network node of the scheduled uplink transmission, it is concluded that the uplink transmission is not skipped by the transmitter. In response to unsuccessful decoding at the network node of the scheduled uplink transmission and a signal strength measurement for the attempt to obtain the scheduled uplink transmission being below a threshold, it is concluded that the uplink transmission is skipped by the transmitter. In response to unsuccessful decoding at the network node of the scheduled uplink transmission and the signal strength measurement for the attempt to obtain the scheduled uplink transmission exceeding the threshold, rescheduling of the uplink transmission is performed.
