EFFECTUATING POWER CONTROL TO MAINTAIN DESIRED QOS LEVELS

摘要

Apparatus, and an associated method, for initiating gain control in a radio communication system. Determinations are made as to a required range of gains at which gain elements of a transmitter must be operated to ensure that a communication service is performed at a selected QoS level. The range of channel gains is sent pursuant to service negotiations as part of an offered gain message. Gain control is effectuated therefrom.
