Abstract
A method and apparatus providing centralized power control in a multiple base station communication configuration. Each base station in a system operates to control both over the forward link power it transmits and the reverse link power from the remote units. A radio link manger provides a common threshold for determining the proper power level of the reverse link signal at each base station. The radio link manager also provides a ratio of the forward link signal strength to a pilot signal strength to control forward link power control. The radio link manager provides the threshold and the ratio uniformly to all base stations thus providing a uniform operating point for all base stations in a system and thus increasing capacity. The same centralized power control is easily expanded to provide a mechanism for intersystem soft handoff.
