Abstract

The present invention is directed to a method and to a system for regulating the transmission power of a mobile station (2) of a mobile radiotelephone system in which information are transmitted in various carrier frequencies with a frequency hopping method. The fixed station (1) comprises a receiver (4) for receiving information that are transmitted from a mobile station (2). The fixed station (1) also comprises a detector (11) for detecting the transmission quality of the transmitted information. When the transmission quality is good and the information were transmitted with a high transmission power, a first message for lowering the transmission power is sent to the mobile station and, when the transmission quality is poor and the information were transmitted with a low transmission power, a second message for raising the transmission power is sent to the mobile station. The present invention serves the purpose of lowering the power consumption in a mobile station of a mobile radiotelephone system.
