Abstract: After a maximum noise rise for a cell is set, a maximum noise rise for each mobile station is allocated within the cell. The actual noise rise from each mobile station within the cell is measured at a base station and signaled to a network. When the cell uses enhanced dedicated channel (E-DCH), the contribution to noise rise of E-DCH signaling is determined and received signal code power (RSCP) at the base station is measured. The RSCP measurement is decoded to determine contributions from mobile stations within and outside the cell; contributions from mobile stations within the cell are calculated; and the network is notified of the measured noise rise. In addition a compensation value may be applied to compensate for temperature induced noise.

Abstract: Data rates of simultaneous radio transmissions of data are matched for services over a connection between a base station and a subscriber station by determining a service-specific rate matching factor for one of the services based on a steady-state rate matching factor and a dynamic rate matching factor. The dynamic connection-oriented rate matching factor is based on the steady-state matching factor. The dynamic-connection oriented rate matching factor matches a sum of a volume of data for the services over the connection to a volume of data available in a next frame of data. In addition, the data is compressed or expanded for the one of the services based on the corresponding service-specific rate matching factor.

Abstract: A method for matching a data rate of simultaneous radio transmissions of data for services over a connection between a base station and a subscriber station. The method includes determining a service-specific rate matching factor for one of the services based on a steady-state rate matching factor and a dynamic rate matching factor. The dynamic connection-oriented rate matching factor is based on the steady-state matching factor. The dynamic-connection oriented rate matching factor matches a sum of a volume of data for the services over the connection to a volume of data available in a next frame of data. The method also includes compressing or expanding the data for the one of the services based on the corresponding service-specific rate matching factor.

Abstract: According to the invention, transmissions of the second radio station are received in the first radio station in which the operating instruction for transmission power of the second radio station is determined. The operating instruction is transmitted during a following transmission of the first radio station to the second radio station, whereupon the latter takes into account the operating instruction for power regulation during one of its following transmissions. Contrary to prior art, no time invariable or fixed step size is used. An operating instruction is used instead which is related to a variable step size in transmission power regulation. The variable step size is subscriber-dependent and time-dependent regulated by the radio stations.

Abstract: According to the invention, a service-specific static rate adaptation factor that controls a service-specific quality of service is determined in a manner already known per se. A dynamic rate-oriented rate adaptation factor is determined for a link, whereby said factor adapts the hypothetical volume of data to a volume of data that is available in the next frame while taking into account the adaptation of the service-specific data rate that is yet to be performed. It is possible to pass through several optimization loops if said data volume is not rigidly predetermined as a result of a sufficient number of transmission channels and spread factors. A service-specific rate adaptation factor is determined by combining the static rate adaptation factor and the dynamic link-related rate adaptation factor, whereupon one single and therefore one-step adaptation of the data rate is carried out.
