摘要 |
The present application relates to a wireless communication system and related methods and apparatuses for transmitting a signal from a source apparatus to a destination apparatus, via at least one intermediate apparatus. In particular, the present invention relates to techniques which seek to improve the throughput of data in multi-hop communication systems. One or more indicators of the quality of a communication signal received at the base station and at the intermediate apparatus are determined. The power of the intermediate apparatus and/or the source apparatus is calculated in order to reduce or prevent an imbalance between an indicator derived at the intermediate apparatus and an indicator derived at the base station which is the destination apparatus in this case. |
