FACILITATING OPEN LOOP POWER CONTROL IN TD-SCDMA MULTI-CARRIER SYSTEMS

摘要

Open loop power control in Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access (TD-SCDMA) multi-carrier systems is facilitated through the determination of a value for open loop control on a primary carrier frequency which is then used to perform open loop control on at least one secondary carrier frequency in the multi-carrier system. This determined open loop control value may be applied using the value determined on the primary carrier frequency, or may be further adjusted using an estimated difference between received power of the primary carrier frequency and the secondary carrier frequencies, in selected aspects. When the pilot signals in the secondary carrier frequencies are transmitted at different power levels, this open loop control value may be further adjusted with a transmit power level offset.
