Abstract

A method and apparatus for controlling transmission power levels in a CDMA cellular communication system are disclosed, whereby a third (middle) control loop is interposed between an inner loop and an outer loop to form a cascaded power control loop. Certain quality indicators are coupled to the outer loop and middle loop. The outer loop produces a quality target value for the middle loop. The middle loop produces the SIR target value.
