Apparatus and method for optimal power allocation between data and voice in a 1xEV-DV wireless network

摘要

A base station for use in a 1xEV-DV wireless network comprising: 1) a radio frequency (RF) transceiver for transmitting to mobile stations in voice traffic channels and in at least one packet data channel and 2) a power allocation controller for adjusting the total transmit power allocated to the voice traffic channels and the at least one packet data channel in response to changing conditions in the 1xEV-DV wireless network. The power allocation controller monitors and detects trends in the traffic channel transmit power requirements of the voice-user mobile stations and adjusts the total transmit power according to the detected trend.
