Method for improving capacity of a reverse link channel in a wireless network

摘要

The capacity of a reverse link is improved by realizing a scheme to effect sharp changes in pilot channel transmit power (PCTP) and data channel to pilot power ratio (DCPR), coordinated with the start of the data channel transmission. The change in pilot power and data channel to pilot power ratio is also applicable to mobiles that use multiple pilots and/or multiple antennas at the transmitter and/or receiver.
