Abstract
A method and apparatus for facilitating power control within mobile radio systems. The power control is a function of location of the mobile station. Power levels are mapped to a geographic grid and power levels are set based upon such pre-determined power levels. Alternatively, initial power levels are set based upon the mapped power levels, but are subject to fine tuning through a much reduced feedback loop.
