Patent ID: 10098095

Abstract:
When a UE does not completely decode a packet transmitted from a base station, the UE may send ACK/NACK to the base station, upon which the base station may retransmit the packet based on the ACK/NACK. However, the ACK/NACK fails to provide the base station with information needed by the UE for completely decoding the packet. Accordingly, a method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus receives a packet from a base station having a first MCS, determines information to provide to the base station, wherein the information comprises CQI relating to a channel condition and/or interference condition corresponding to time-frequency resources allocated for the received packet, and sends the information to the base station. Thereafter, the apparatus re-receives the packet from the base station, the re-received packet having a second MCS according to the information sent to the base station.
