Abstract:
A communication method for communicating between a first station and a second station with a full-duplex for transmission power control, the method comprising the steps of:receiving at said second station information transmitted from said first station;first processing at said second station a first procedure after said receiving step for estimating a quality of a communication path based on a status of a received signal;second processing at said second station a second procedure for comparing an output value from said first processing step with a variable reference value set in response to a reception condition, said variable reference value being a difference between an estimated error value of a decoded received signal and a predetermined fixed reference value, wherein said difference is amplified with a predetermined gain;transmitting from said second station power control information generated in said second processing step to said first station; andcontrolling a transmission power of said first station based on said power control information received from said second station.
