A UNMTS (universal mobile telecommunications system) based system comprises a common control point, a number of base stations, K, and a mobile terminal. During a soft handoff involving the K base stations and the mobile terminal, the common control point receives individual user channel transmit powers from each of the K base stations. In addition, the common control point receives two parameters from the mobile terminal-the identity of that base station involved in the soft handoff that has the strongest received signal at the mobile terminal and, on an average, a value representing how much stronger the received SNR was in comparison to the SNR target maintained by the mobile terminal. The common control point then decides on a downlink reference user channel transmit power for each of the base stations as a function of the individual user channel transmit powers reported by each base station involved in the soft handoff and the information provided from the mobile terminal.
