Method and System for Quality-Based Power Control in Cellular Communications Systems

• A method and system for quality-based transmission power control in a cellular communications system (100) are disclosed, whereby a network operator can specify the transmission quality requirements using a measurement that better reflects the actual quality perceived by the users. All transmitter power levels in the network can be controlled by identical power regulators (200), each of which can adapt to individual traffic situations in order to achieve the specified quality. For example, in a GSM frequency-hopping network, the FER together with the parameters estimated from the current traffic situation (54), are mapped onto a target C/I (56), which in turn, the power control algorithm strives (16) to achieve (58, 60). Consequently, the power regulators can adapt to the traffic situation experienced by each receiver.
