The present disclosure relates to an uplink congestion control scheme. In one embodiment, an uplink congestion control method is provided, comprising steps of: determining whether or not a congestion status of a serving cell is changed based on a rise over thermal, RoT, measurement; sending to a set of user equipment, UEs, a signaling to indicate the change of the congestion status; and performing an uplink congestion control based on the RoT measurement and with enhanced transmission format combination, E-TFC, reselection by at least one UE from the set of UEs based at least on the signaling.
