Method and apparatus for controlling terminal power

摘要

The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for controlling terminal power. The method includes the following steps of: determining whether a power control level set in the terminal is reached or not when controlling the terminal power; if yes, then adjusting a power of the power control level based on a calibration parameter configured in the terminal within a rated output power range corresponding to the power control level; wherein the calibration parameter is 1 dBm; controlling an output power of the terminal according to the adjusted power. The present invention can further perform an accurate terminal power control for reducing power consumption, conserving resources, and increasing system capacity based on a compatibility with conventional power control.

1. A method for controlling terminal power comprising steps of:
determining and obtaining a terminal type of a terminal, wherein the terminal type comprises GSM(400, 850, or 900), DCS, and PCS; determining whether a power control level set in the terminal is reached or not according to the terminal type when controlling the terminal power of the terminal, wherein the corresponding power control level is from 16 dBm to 26 dBm if the terminal type is GSM(400, 850, or 900); the corresponding power control level is from 9 dBm to 23 dBm if the terminal type is DCS; and the corresponding power control level is from 9 dBm to 21 dBm if the terminal type is PCS; adjusting a power of the power control level based on a calibration parameter of 1 dBm, which is established in the terminal, within a rated output power range corresponding to the power control level if the power control level is reached; and controlling an output power of the terminal according to the adjusted power.
