Method of adaptive power control

摘要

In a mobile communication system, an adaptive power control method may include determining by a network unit ( 209 ) of the mobile communication system a message type ( 252 ) of a control message ( 250 ) transmitted to a mobile unit ( 202 ), determining message content ( 254 ) of the control message, determining whether the control message is being retransmitted ( 256 ) and selectively increasing power gain for the control message based on at least one of the message type, the message content and whether the control message is being retransmitted.
