Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to power control of control channels in mobile communication networks. Background technique
[0002] High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSPDA) is a key feature of Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) that provides high data rate transmission in the CDMA downlink to support multimedia services. Downlink data transmission is provided by a High Speed Physical Shared Control Channel (HS-SCCH) for HS-DSCH and a High Speed Physical Downlink Shared Channel (HS-DSCH) associated with the control channel. The control channel provides the terminal with information that data for that terminal has arrived on the data channel.
[0003] The prior art does not introduce a power control mechanism for the control channel prior to data transmission on the data channel. The power of the control channel can be adjusted by applying an open and closed power control mechanism only when data transmission has started.
