Abstract

The present invention is a base station which receives a communication signal over an uplink common control channel and measures interference on the uplink common control channel in response to the received signal. A channel quality measuring device included in the base station monitors the channel quality of the uplink common control channel and provides a quality margin for the communication signal. A spreading device, then, transmits the quality margin over a downlink control channel in response to the quality margin.
