METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCING ERRONEOUS FRAME CLASSIFICATIONS

摘要

A method, and an apparatus in, for example, a mobile station (MS) (201) or a base station (202) reduces erroneous frame classifications in a radio access network (RAN). An interface (223) couples to the RAN supporting a downlink on a first channel (231) with a first data rate and a second channel (230) with a lesser second data rate. A memory (221) and a processor (200) store and execute instructions to determine a parameter associated with a received frame (301) and determine that a classification condition, such as DTX or Erasure, associated with the frame on one channel (231) is erroneous based on a parameter associated with a frame (304) on the other channel (230). The classification condition is reclassified based on the parameter on the other channel and a power level adjustment can be facilitated.
