Abstract

The present invention relates to methods and arrangements that enable continuous adaptive control of the number of autonomous HARQ retransmissions. This is achieved by a solution, where the UE and the radio base station are using a number of autonomous HARQ retransmissions that can be adjusted based on observations in the UE and/or the radio base station. What is observed is the amount of HARQ retransmissions needed for the radio base station to correctly decode the latest received data packet(s).
