1. A method, comprising:
receiving, wirelessly from a communication device, information about a signal transmission distortion characteristic of the communication device, wherein the information indicates how hardware imperfections of the communication device introduce distortion into a transmitted signal; and deciding a power control command for wirelessly transmitting to the communication device, wherein the deciding takes into account the signal transmission distortion characteristic of the communication device, wherein the signal distortion characteristic of the communication device defines a maximum signal-to-noise ratio for a signal from the communication device, and comprising deciding against a transmission of a command to increase power if it is determined that a signal-to-noise ratio of a signal received at a receiver from the communication device is already less than a predetermined amount below said maximum, wherein the decided power control command is transmitted as part of downlink control information to the communication device, and wherein the power control command is for use by the communication device in determining a transmission power for the communication device. |
