US Patent 11864017 Selective retransmission method for uplink overhead reduction

Systems and methods are provided for an improved link budged resulting from reduced overhead. The method includes determining a signal to noise and interference ratio (SINR) at a wireless device, comparing the SINR to a predetermined threshold and determining the SINR at the wireless device meets the predetermined threshold. The method additionally includes disabling a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) retransmission mechanism for the wireless device based on the determination that the SINR at the wireless devices meets the predetermined threshold.
