  • Dynamic load control for downlink signaling channels
    Patent number: 8565177
    Abstract: A number of channel coding elements per transmission time interval required to transmit control information to a communication terminal is evaluated based on communication connection condition information with respect to the communication terminal, wherein the control information is defined by information on the scheduling of communication resources allocation to the communication terminal. A modified capacity is determined, wherein a capacity is defined by a total of available channel coding elements per transmission time interval on a channel dedicated for transmitting the control information.

  • Method for Dynamically Controlling an Uplink Transmission Power of a User Equipment
    Publication number: 20120176998
    Abstract: It is described a method for dynamically controlling an uplink transmission power of a user equipment assigned to a base station within a cell of a mobile network. The method includes determining a current traffic load within the cell, triggering in response to a specified trigger point an adaptation of the uplink transmission power of the user equipment, and controlling the uplink transmission power of the user equipment in response to the triggering and depending on the current traffic load.
