Abstract
A method is provided for preemptively protecting mobile units within a wireless communication system from interference caused by sudden high speed data transmission within the system. The method includes detecting an imminent high speed data transmission in at least one particular cell of the system. At least each current local mobile unit is identified that is in signal communication with a base station of the at least one particular cell. A current operating level for at least each of the current local mobile units is determined. A necessary increase in the current operating level is estimated for at least each of the current local mobile units. A transmit time is predicted for when the imminent high speed data transmission will occur. The current operating level for at least each of the current local mobile units is increased by the corresponding necessary operating level increase at a time no later than the predicted transmit time.
