Abstract
A method of wireless communication includes receiving, from an user equipment (UE), a report of relative neighbor cell path loss levels and corresponding neighbor cell indexes for intra-frequency neighbor cells. The method also includes receiving, from a radio network controller (RNC), uplink loading conditions for the intra-frequency neighbor cells. The method further includes allocating a power grant based on the relative neighbor cell path loss levels and the uplink loading conditions.

A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- reporting, for base station power grant allocation, relative neighbor cell path loss levels and corresponding neighbor cell indexes for a plurality of intra-frequency neighbor cells.
A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- receiving, from a user equipment (UE), a report of relative neighbor cell path loss levels and corresponding neighbor cell indexes for a plurality of intra-frequency neighbor cells;
- receiving, from a radio network controller (RNC), uplink loading conditions for the plurality of intra-frequency neighbor cells;
- and
- allocating a power grant based at least in part on the relative neighbor cell path loss levels and the uplink loading conditions.
