Abstract

A HARQ data reception scheme for a multiradio communication device is disclosed. The communication device operates multiple radio connections and monitors interference level caused to a target radio connection by at least one other radio connection operated in the communication device. A data packet and at least one retransmission data packet are received with the target radio connection. The utilization of the received data packet and the at least one received retransmission data packet in a hybrid automatic repeat request data reception is determined according to the interference level at the time instant associated with the reception of the corresponding data packet. Under high interference, the received data packet may be discarded, and detected and decoded data packets may be weighted for the HARQ combining according to the interference levels associated with the data packets.
