Abstract
A transmission power control method and system are provided for use in a spread spectrum or CDMA mobile communications system, whereby an estimate of the achieved SIR is used as an additional parameter for the outer power control loop function. When the QoS and achieved SIR are both too low, the QoS is ignored and the SIR target value is instead controlled by the achieved SIR. Similarly, when both the QoS and achieved SIR are too high, the QoS is ignored and the SIR target value is instead controlled by the achieved SIR.
