Abstract: In an electronic payment system according to an example embodiment of the present disclosure, when a terminal device receives, from a user, an order for filling with energy a vehicle to which energy is to be supplied, it determines whether the balance of electronic money is equal to or greater than a predetermined maximum amount of money. When the balance is equal to or greater than the maximum amount of money, the terminal device causes an electronic money management server to secure the maximum amount of money as a credit amount from the balance. After energy is supplied to the vehicle on the basis of the order, the electronic money management server deducts the cost of the energy supply from the credit amount.

Abstract: An uplink channel transmission power control method is provided for a CDMA mobile communication system performing one way communication. A base station measures the received level of data transmitted from each mobile terminal at each channel, and generates a transmission power control signal of each uplink traffic channel. The generated transmission power control signals are multiplexed, and the multiplexed common transmission power control signal is transmitted to all mobile terminals by using the common channel shared by the mobile terminals. Each mobile terminal derives the transmission power control signal of the uplink traffic channel used by the terminal, from the received common transmission power control signal, and controls the transmission power of a data packet.
