OPTIMIZING POWER SETTINGS IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM TO MITGATE INTERFERENCE

A method and apparatus for optimizing power settings in a communication system includes a first step (306) of monitoring a noise floor. A next step (308) includes determining if the noise floor crosses a threshold level. A next step (310) includes preventing any further increases in a Common Pilot C...

Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus for optimizing power settings in a communication system includes a first step (306) of monitoring a noise floor. A next step (308) includes determining if the noise floor crosses a threshold level. A next step (310) includes preventing any further increases in a Common Pilot Channel power level. A next step (312) includes randomly selecting and performing an interference mitigation measure. A next step (320) includes monitoring an interference level. A next step (322) and allowing further increases in a Common Pilot Channel power level if the interference abates by more than a predetermined amount.
