METHOD FOR CONTROLLING POWER OF OUTER LOOP WHEN APPLYING SOFT HAND-OFF

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for controlling a power of an outer loop when applying a soft hand-off is provided to variably control up step/down step size rates for a power control threshold value of a reverse link when applying the soft hand-off, according to base station numbers in a soft hand-off active set. CONSTITUTION: A method for controlling a power of an outer loop when applying a soft hand-off comprise the steps of: checking each of frame errors received to base stations themselves by base stations in the soft hand-off active set, according to the soft hand-off for an optional mobile station; deciding frame error rates targeting in each station of the active set, according to the frame error checking results, previously checked frame error results and base station numbers in the active set; and deciding an up step/down step size rates(B) for the power control threshold value of the base stations, according to the decided target frame error rates(B) of each base station.
