A method of configuring rate adaptation for data transmission, the method comprising:
- for a first phase:
- sending a set of test data packets;
- and
- determining a first rate adaptation configuration based on feedback corresponding to the sending of the set of test data packets;
- for a second phase:
- sending a set of application data packets according to the first rate adaptation configuration;
- and
- determining a second rate adaptation configuration based on at least one of the sending of the set of test data packets or the set of application data packets.
A wireless-capable device comprising:
- a transceiver;
- a memory comprising program code;
- and
- a processor, coupled to the transceiver and the memory, and configured to execute the program code to:
- for a first phase:
- send a set of test data packets;
- and
- determine a first rate adaptation configuration based on feedback corresponding to the sending of the set of test data packets;
- for a second phase:
- send at least a set of application data packets according to the first rate adaptation configuration;
- and
- determine a second rate adaptation configuration based on at least one of the sending of the set of test data packets or the set of application data packets.
