A method implemented in a network node for scheduling uplink communications from a wireless device is provided. The method includes receiving, at the network node from a WD, a plurality of UL responses associated with UL scheduling. For each received UL response from the plurality of UL responses, a type of the received UL response is determined based at least in part on contents of the received UL response, including a regular UL grant and a wasted UL grant. For each received UL response from the plurality of UL responses, a UL scheduling aggressiveness parameter to control UL scheduling of the WD is determined. The UL scheduling aggressiveness parameter is based at least in part on the determined type of UL response. The method includes, optionally, performing UL scheduling of the WD based on the updated UL scheduling aggressiveness parameter.
