According to the invention, time is divided into power correction intervals. A target power or a target energy per bit and correction step limits are determined for each base station. The parameters are signalled to the base stations. Each base station subsequently executes a power correction algorithm. Each base station compares the used transmission power or energy per bit to said target power or said target energy per bit, respectively. The result of the comparison is further divided by a predetermined number of power correction steps within said power correction interval, the number preferably equals with the number of repetitions of downlink power control commands within said power correction interval, to provide a power correction step. The power correction is then executed in combination with the downlink closed loop power control. |
