Abstract

The power control process switches between IS-95 forward power control and fast forward power control using either speed or hand-off status information from the mobile radiotelephone. If the received information indicates either a slower speed or the number of communication links is less than a predetermined number, the fast forward power control process is used. If the received information indicates either a fast speed or the number of links is greater than or equal to the predetermined number (the radiotelephone is in a hand-off situation), the forward power control process is used.
