Abstract

A method for transmitting a plurality of uplink messages may include transmitting a first uplink message to a sink device and monitoring a feedback channel for feedback information from the sink device during one or more default feedback reception periods associated with the first uplink message. The method may further include skipping monitoring of the feedback channel during the remaining default feedback reception periods associated with the first uplink message if a number of consecutive default feedback reception periods containing positive feedback information exceeds a threshold, updating the threshold based on a channel quality measure, transmitting a second uplink message, and monitoring or skipping monitoring of the feedback channel during default feedback reception periods associated with a second uplink message based on the updated threshold.
