POWER CONTROL FOR COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS UTILIZING HIGH SPEED SHARED CHANNELS

摘要

A system, components and methods provide controlled transmitter power in a wireless communication system in which both dedicated and shared channels ar e utilized. A network unit preferably has a receiver (16) for receiving UL use r data from WTRUs on UL DCHs and at least one UL SCH and a processor (36) for computing target metrics for UL DCHs based on the reception of signals transmitted by a WTRU on an UL DCH associated with an UL SCH usable by the WTRU. A shared channel target metric generator is provided that is configure d to output a respective UL SCH target metric derived from each computed UL DC H target metric.
