A method of controlling power in a transmission link between a central station and a terminal in a point to multi-point communication network and system for carrying out the method, particularly suitable for implementation in satellite access networks or terrestrial point to multi-point access networks. A transmitter transmits a plurality of reference signals (4) to a plurality of receivers (2); each receiver (2) measures the respective quality of the signals so as to determine a reference signal (4) corresponding to the receiver (2); each receiver (2) indicates to the transmitter (1) the reference signal (4) corresponding thereto; and if required, the transmitter (1) adjusts the power level of transmission of the traffic data (3).
A method of controlling power in a transmission link between a transmitter and a receiver in a point to multi-point communication network, said network comprising at least one transmitter transmitting traffic data to a plurality of receivers, characterized in comprising the steps of:
A transmitter means for use in a transmission link in a point to multipoint communication network, said network further comprising a plurality of receivers, characterized in that said transmitter is adapted for transmitting a plurality of reference signals to said plurality of receivers, each reference signal having a transmission quality corresponding to said at least one receiver;
A receiver for use in a transmission link in a point to multipoint communication network, said network further comprising at least one transmitter for transmitting traffic data, characterized in that said receiver is adapted for receiving a plurality of reference signals from said at least one transmitter, at least one of said reference signals having a transmission quality corresponding to said receiver;
