Abstract

A method and system are disclosed for dynamically adjusting forward-link transmission power in a cellular wireless communication system. A base station controller (BSC) or other radio network entity determines that a given cell sector a given sector is serving at least one active mobile station while no other sector in a cluster of sectors associated with the given sector is also serving at least one active mobile station. In response, the BSC dynamically increases the pilot transmit power in the given sector to a level beyond the sector's normal (full) transmit power, in an effort to increase requested data transmission speed in the sector.
