Method and transmitting node for handling transmissions over a radio channel

A method performed by a transmitting node for handling transmissions to a receiving node in a first service and in a second service over a radio channel where feedback signaling is employed to indicate either an acknowledgement, ACK, or a non-acknowledgement, NACK, of correct reception of the transmissions, the method comprising:

• adjusting a first Outer Loop Compensation, OLC, for the first service, based on feedback signaling from the receiving node for the transmissions in the first service, by increasing the first OLC with a first adding value ΔOLC+1 when an ACK is received and reducing the first OLC with a first reducing value ΔOLC−1 when a NACK is received,
• performing a first link adaptation (LA1) of the radio channel for transmissions in the first service based on an actual Signal-to-Noise Ratio, SNR, of signals in the first service and the adjusted first OLC,
• performing transmissions in the first service over the radio channel using the first link adaptation,
• repeating a subset of the transmissions in the first service,
• adjusting a second OLC for the second service before the second service becomes active, based on feedback signaling from the receiving node for said repeated subset of transmissions, by increasing the second OLC with a second adding value ΔOLC+2 when an ACK is received and reducing the second OLC with a second reducing value ΔOLC−2 when a NACK is received,
• performing a second link adaptation (LA2) of the radio channel for transmissions in the second service based on said actual SNR and the adjusted second OLC, and
• performing transmissions in the second service over the radio channel using the second link adaptation, once the second service becomes active.
