Apparatus and method for controlling reverse link data rate of packet data in mobile communication system

摘要

Disclosed is an apparatus and method for controlling a reverse link data rate of packet data in a mobile communication system. There is provided an apparatus and method for controlling a reverse data rate of packet data taking into consideration the state of a mobile terminal, which is capable of sufficiently using reverse capacity and adjusting for a sudden variation of reverse receipt sensitivity and an effect of interference in a mobile communication system. A method for providing information for reverse data rate control of packet data in a mobile terminal of a mobile communication system, comprises the steps of determining and updating the status of reverse data rate control factors of the mobile terminal every predetermined period, and transmitting status report information in a reverse direction over predetermined channels, the status report information based on the updated factors.
