Abstract
Apparatuses and methods are provided for determining operating modes of a communications link for a user equipment (UE) in a communications system based on whether the UE is configured for network coded transmission control protocol (TCP-NC). The operating modes can include physical layer channel error recovery, modulation, channel selection, among others. For example, physical layer channel error recovery can be scaled-back, or disabled, when TCP-NC is available because it is a redundant error recovery scheme. Accordingly, power can be saved, higher spectral efficiency can be achieved, and the user experience can be improved while the TCP-NC protocol recovers any data loss due to channel, errors.
