Method and apparatus for power control in a wireless communication system

摘要

A method and apparatus for power control in a wireless communication system are provided. A Mobile Station (MS) operation method for power control in a wireless communication system includes assigning an UpLink (UL) control channel to the MS from a Base Station (BS), determining a location to receive a Transmit Power Control (TPC) command based on the UL control channel, and receiving a TPC command in the determined location and increasing or decreasing transmit power, thus advantageously being capable of reducing an overhead for power control command assignment information.
