Abstract

Embodiments provide an apparatus, a method and a computer program for scheduling a data transmission. The apparatus 10 is operable for scheduling data transmissions to a mobile transceiver in a mobile communication system. The apparatus 10 comprises means for determining 12 a delay between a transmission of a first data packet and a transmission of a next data packet to the mobile transceiver, the delay depending on an acknowledgement packet received from the mobile transceiver for the first data packet. The apparatus 10 further comprises means for scheduling 14 data transmissions to the mobile transceiver based on the delay.
