Abstract

A method includes a first step of monitoring a noise floor. A next step includes determining if the noise floor crosses a threshold level. A next step includes preventing any further increases in a Common Pilot Channel power level. A next step includes randomly selecting and performing an interference mitigation measure. A next step includes monitoring an interference level. A next step allows further increases in a Common Pilot Channel power level if the interference abates by more than a predetermined amount.
