Dynamic Error Correction For Data Transmissions

A user equipment (UE), comprising:

• a processor configured with processor-executable instructions to:
• determine parameters of a wireless communication link by which the UE receives data that is transmitted from a remote computing device via a wireless communication network and that is used by an application executing in the UE;
• receive sensor information from sensors of the UE;
• predict a condition of the wireless communication link based on the determined parameters of the wireless communication link and the received sensor information;
• and
• select a forward error correction (FEC) rate for communications with the remote computing device based on the predicted condition of the wireless communication link.

A method performed by a processor of a computing device for dynamic error correction for data transmissions, comprising:

• receiving from a user equipment (UE) a prediction of a condition of a wireless communication link by which the UE receives data transmitted by the computing device;
• selecting a forward error correction (FEC) rate for data transmissions to the UE based on the received prediction of the condition of the wireless communication link;
• and
• using the selected FEC rate in data transmissions to the UE.
