A method for coordinating at least one first uplink transmission from mobile stations to a multipoint receiver comprising at least two antenna systems of a radio communication system and at least one second uplink transmission from said mobile stations to a single-point receiver being a single antenna system of said radio communication system, said method comprising reserving at least one first radio resource for said at least one first uplink transmission for at least two serving areas of said radio communication system and further reserving at least one second radio resource for said at least one second uplink transmission for said at least two serving areas,
- wherein said method further comprises:
- predefining at least one first power control parameter for said at least one first uplink transmission,
- predefining at least one second power control parameter for said at least one second uplink transmission,
- transmitting said predefined at least one first power control parameter and said predefined at least one second power control parameter to at least one of said mobile stations,
- storing said predefined at least one first power control parameter and said predefined at least one second power control parameter at said at least one of said mobile stations,
- transmitting an indication indicating said at least one first radio resource or said at least one second radio resource to said at least one of said mobile stations, and
- applying at said at least one of said mobile stations said predefined at least one first power control parameter for said at least one first radio resource or said predefined at least one second power control parameter for said at least one second radio resource based on said received indication.
