Reverse link differentiated services for a multiflow communications system using autonomous allocation

摘要

An access terminal ( 206 ) is configured for wireless communication with an access network ( 204 ) within a sector ( 1032 ). The access terminal ( 206 ) includes a transmitter ( 2608 ) for transmitting a reverse traffic channel to the access network ( 204 ), an antenna ( 2614 ) for receiving signals from the access network ( 204 ), a processor ( 2602 ) and memory ( 2604 ) in electronic communication with the processor ( 2602 ). Instructions are stored in the memory ( 2604 ). The instructions are executable estimate a current value of a reverse activity bit ( 1444 ) transmitted by the access network ( 204 ). Per flow power allocation may be decreased on increased based on an estimated current value of the reverse activity bit.
