Congestion control in a wireless communication system using the battery level

摘要

A method for congestion control in the uplink of a wireless communication system having a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) and a radio network controller (RNC) begins by receiving an interference report for each user. The average noise rise for each user calculated and congestion relieving measures are implemented based upon the average noise rise and the WTRU battery level. A method for congestion control in the downlink of a wireless communication system having a WTRU and a RNC begins by receiving a transmission power report for each user. The transmission power for each user is calculated, and congestion relieving measures are implemented based upon the average transmission power and the WTRU battery level.
