Patent ID: 7885608

Claim:
A method for controlling transmission parameters in a wireless communication system, in which a first portion and a second portion of signals are transmitted on a physical channel to a first transceiver from a second transceiver, wherein a first receiver processing algorithm is used in the first transceiver to process the first portion of signals received on the physical channel and a second receiver processing algorithm is used in the first transceiver to process the second portion of signals received on the physical channel, wherein the method comprises the steps of: transmitting an indication indicating that the first and the second receiver processing algorithms are used in the first transceiver to process the first and second portions, respectively, of signals received on the physical channel; receiving the indication at the second transceiver; and adjusting, at the second transceiver in response to the indication, a transmission parameter for at least one of the first and second portions of signals to be transmitted on the physical channel to the first transceiver.
