Abstract

This invention relates to a method of modifying a current transmitted power distribution used by at least two base stations transmitting a signal to a mobile station on the macro-diversity principle. A mobile station using this method is also disclosed. According to the invention, the method consists substituting the current transmitted power distribution by a new transmitted power distribution, selected among several hypothetical transmitted power distributions, under the condition that this new transmitted power distribution provides a better quality of service at the mobile station than the current one.
