Abstract
Various embodiments are provided to address some of the current issues in establishing and adapting an HARQ operating point. Some embodiments include determining a metric that indicates the predictability of a signal to noise plus interference ratio (SINR) for signaling from a wireless device and setting a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) operating point for communication with the wireless device using the metric. By setting the HARQ operating point based on a metric that indicates the predictability of SINR for wireless device signaling, throughput can be improved over present-day HARQ operating point adaptation techniques.
