  • Publication number: 20020160802
    Abstract: A propagation loss measuring section 207 appropriately changes a measuring method according to the reception type of system informed from a base station so as to measure propagation losses. A propagation loss comparator 209 compares the propagation loss between the respective cells. A transmission slot controller 210 controls a data assembling section 211 and spreader 213 in such a way to transmit a signal to a base station existing in a cell with a smaller propagation loss. A transmission power controller 208 controls a RF section 202 in such a way to transmit a signal with a transmission power value obtained by adding the propagation loss value at each cell to a target reception power value at each base station.

  • Publication number: 20020160716
    Abstract: Propagation loss measuring section 207 measures propagation loss of each cell, propagation loss comparison section 208 compares propagation loss among respective cells, transmission slot control section 209 controls data composition section 211 and spreading section 213 so that signals are transmitted to a base station that exists in a cell with smaller propagation loss according to the switching cycle informed from the base station and acquired by switching cycle acquisition section 209. That is, mobile station 100 transmits dedicated communication channel signals by changing the status of time slot assignment for each switching cycle informed from the base station according to propagation loss.

  • Publication number: 20020160778
    Abstract: During handover, reception power measuring section A103 measures a power value of a signal received via antenna A101 corresponding to sector A and reception power measuring section B105 measures a power value of a signal received via antenna B104 corresponding to sector B, comparison section 107 compares the power values, control section 108 determines whether a signal should be sent using a time slot corresponding to sector A or a time slot corresponding to sector B based on the comparison result and carries out switching control of switch 109. In this way, the status of time slot assignment during handover is changed as appropriate for every one frame.

  • Patent number: 6138033
    Abstract: When the transmission power of the radio transmission data is controlled in a given period in the transmission power control section of the radio communication apparatus, the transmission power value of this time is restricted to the value of the transmission power of the previous time added to said maximum allowance when the difference between the transmission power value of the previous time and the transmission power value of this time exceeds the maximum allowance in the situation where the transmission power is increased.
