1. An apparatus for a network access node, the apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform:
calculating, for a terminal, a first offset value based on first acknowledgment and negative acknowledgement information for signals received during subband full duplex slots;
calculating, for the terminal, a second offset value based on second acknowledgement and negative acknowledgment information for signals received during uplink-only slots or during downlink-only slots;
using the first and second offset values to determine respective first and second modulation and coding schemes to be used with the terminal for transmissions made in a subband full duplex slots and either uplink-only slots or downlink-only slots;
wherein the first offset value and the second offset value are terminal-specific correction offset values;
adjusting a first signal-to-interference and noise ratio measured during the uplink-only slots or downlink-only slots using the first offset value to form a first adjusted signal-to-interference and noise ratio; and
determining a first modulation and coding scheme using the first adjusted signal-to-interference and noise ratio.
