Zusammenfassung:	A technique for determining a radio device residence time, RDRT (620), and scheduling the radio device (100) accordingly is described. More specifically, and without limitations, according to a first method aspect, a method for determining the RDRT (620) for a radio device (100) in radio communication with a network node (200) of a telecommunications network is provided, comprising a step of setting, at the radio device (100), a first time stamp (602) of a packet of the radio communication, wherein the first time stamp (602) is indicative of a time (602) of handling (720) the packet at a first layer (506) of a protocol stack at the radio device (100). The method further comprises a step of transmitting the packet to the network node (200) through a second layer (508) of the protocol stack, the second layer (508) being below the first layer (506) in the protocol stack. In a first variant, the packet comprises the first time stamp (602) of the packet for determining the RDRT (620) based on a difference between the first time stamp (602) and a second time stamp (710; 712) of the packet, wherein the packet is configured to initiate setting the second time stamp (710; 712) upon handling (724; 726) the packet at the telecommunications network. In a second variant, the packet comprises the RDRT (620) determined based on a difference between the first time stamp (602) of the packet and a second time stamp of the packet set at the radio device (100), wherein the second time stamp is indicative of a time of handling (722) the packet at the second layer (508) of the radio device (100). In a third variant, the packet comprises the first time stamp (602) of the packet and a second time stamp of the packet set at the radio device (100), wherein the second time stamp is indicative of a time of handling (722) the packet at the second layer (508) of the radio device (100), wherein the packet is configured to initiate determining, at the telecommunications network, the RDRT (620) based on a difference between the first time stamp (602) and the second time stamp.
