Abstract
A system and method for automatically determining and setting the optimum output power values on base station and mobile station radio channels in a cellular system. The invention sets power levels for fixed power radio channels, and sets initial and maximum power levels for variable power radio channels. The present invention utilizes data obtained from automatic digital voice channel power regulation in either the base station, or mobile station, or both when determining and setting optimum output levels on radio channels of the system.
Claims34
In a telecommunications system which includes one or more first transceiving devices and one or more second transceiving devices, said first and second transceiving devices communicating over one or more channels comprised of automatically regulated and non-regulated channels, a method of setting output power level parameters in one of said first transceiving devices comprising the steps of:
- determining a maximum output power level used on one or more of said automatically regulated channels;
- comparing said maximum output power level with set output power levels for one or more of said non-regulated channels;
- and
- reporting discrepancies between said maximum output power level and said set output power levels for said one or more non-regulated channels.
