Uplink Transmission Timing in WCDMA

• In wireless network uplink communications, there is a trade off between transmission coordination to avoid overload situations, and distributed transmission decisions to adapt to fast channel variations. Here, uplink transmission timing (UTT) is proposed as a scheme to allow some load control support, while transmitting mainly when the channel is favorable. It utilizes channel state feedback in the form of power control commands, which already are available in the system. Simulations illustrate the transmission timing behavior, and also indicate that UTT is a power and intercell interference efficient scheme to transport data compared to traditional dedicated channels with continuous transmissions and to schemes where transmission decisions are random.
