Abstract: A wireless communication network can reliably deliver high priority broadcast information from base stations to mobile terminals located deep in building and those located in scarcely populated areas that are remote from the base stations. Each of the base stations of the wireless communication network comprises a broadcast information input unit for receiving high priority broadcast information and a transmission power changing unit for changing the transmission power of the downlink common channel when high priority broadcast information is input to it. As broadcast information is input, the transmission power changing unit changes the transmission power of the downlink common channel so as to boost the effective radiation power used by the downlink common channel of the base station at places in the coverage of the base station that are subjected to a propagation loss.

Abstract: A switching circuit (112) is controlled by an in-slot interface-noise-power-control output circuit (115) to output an in-slot interface noise power (107-n) to a past-slot interference-noise-power memory (110), if there is no estimated value for an interference noise power of finger n of one slot before. If the interference noise power of the one slot before is not estimated and yet there exists an interference noise power which has been once estimated, the past-slot interference-noise-power memory (110) stores therein an interference noise power in a last slot which has been valid. An inter-slot averaging processing is performed between the interference noise power (111-n) from the past-slot interference-noise-power memory (110) and an estimated value (107-n) for the interference noise power in the current slot.
