Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed that provide a closed loop power control system including adaptively adjusting the desired target SINR over time so as to ultimately achieve a feasible SINR. In one implementation, a method is provided of optimizing uplink closed loop power control in a RAN in which one or more base stations each service a plurality of mobile stations, including: determining a power level for each mobile station for its respective uplink transmissions, including measuring a current achieved SINR for each mobile station; and for each mobile station, adjusting the power level to be sufficiently high to meet desired transmission characteristics but not so high as to cause unnecessary interference with transmissions from other mobile stations, by adjusting a desired target SINR based on factors selected from the following: current and prior achieved SINRs, current and prior interference measurements, and current and prior transmission power control commands.

Claim (Index 13):
A node for optimizing uplink closed loop power control in a Radio Access Network (RAN) in which one or more base stations each service a plurality of mobile stations, the node configured to:\n at each base station, for each mobile station connected to the base station, determine a transmit power level for the mobile station's uplink transmissions, wherein the node is configured to determine the transmit power level by being configured to measure a current achieved signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) for each mobile station, and wherein each mobile station has a desired target SINR; update the desired target SINR for each mobile station based on the current achieved SINR and prior SINR measurements to obtain a current desired target SINR; and for each mobile station, adjust the transmit power level by sending a transmission power control (TPC) command to the mobile station based on a difference between the current desired target SINR and the current achieved SINR, wherein the node is configured to adaptively adjust the desired target SINR over time to ultimately approach a target SINR that is feasible.
