In a wireless communication system, an apparatus and a method are provided for controlling reverse link interference among access terminals that are power controlled by a sector of a base station. In an embodiment, the maximum effective noise power spectral density is used as a parameter for controlling the level of reverse link loading, by setting a reverse activity bit (RAB) to signal the access terminals to reduce their data rates in order to minimize interference between the access terminals if the maximum effective noise power spectral density is above a predetermined threshold.

A method and apparatus for determining the data rate of a reverse link communication of an access terminal includes receiving a reverse activity bit (RAB) from an access point in the communication system, and passing the RAB to a digital filter to produce a filtered RAB. In one embodiment, the reverse link data rate is determined based on the filtered value of the RAB. Furthermore, a processor in the access terminal may determine whether the access terminal is in an idle mode, and passing a non-busy state value of the RAB to the digital filter when the access terminal is in the idle mode. The filtered RAB may be compared to a threshold to determine a mode of reverse link data rate determination. The mode defines a set of criteria for an aggressiveness level of increasing or decreasing the reverse link communication data rate. The processor, therefore, determines the data rate based on the filtered reverse activity bit in accordance with the determined mode.

An access terminal (AT) in a cellular communication system is configured to operate in an active hold (AH) state, a transitional state between traffic and dormant states. The AT applies power to its transmit chain with a low duty cycle while in the AH state, conserving battery power. To improve robustness of the communications, the radio network may power control the AT to a higher level relative to the power control level of the AT in the traffic state. Transition from the traffic state to the AH state may be initiated after a brief period of inactivity on the reverse link. The AT may remain in the AH state while receiving forward link payload data. Transmission of a reverse link payload packet in the AH state may initiate transition to the traffic state. A prolonged period of inactivity may initiate a transition from the AH state to the dormant state.

Systems and methods for decreasing delays and thereby improving the performance of data transmissions in wireless communication systems by enabling increased data transmission rates to be selected for a reverse link between an access terminal and an access network. The new data rate is selected from several limiting rates, including a data-justified rate and a ramp-up-limited rate. In one embodiment, the data-justified rate is constrained to decrease in a controlled manner and cannot suddenly drop to 0. In another embodiment, the ramp-up-limited rate is allowed to return quickly to a sticky rate if the system is not busy rather than having to ramp up to the sticky rate according to the standard probabilities.

Method and a system method and system for a dynamic adjustment of a data request channel in a communication system are disclosed. A value of at least one variable affecting the data request channel margin is determined in accordance with conditions in the communication system. The at least one variable is then set to the determined value. The value of the at least one variable is then conveyed to a subscriber station in an adjustment message. The subscriber station determines whether the adjustment message was transmitted by a serving sector or a non-serving sector; and adjusts at least one attribute of the communication channel in accordance with the determination, thus adjusting the DRC channel margin.

An access terminal (206) is configured for wireless communication with an access network (204) within a sector (1032). The access terminal (206) includes a transmitter (2608) for transmitting a reverse traffic channel to the access network (204), an antenna (2614) for receiving signals from the access network (204), a processor (2602) and memory (2604) in electronic communication with the processor (2602). Instructions are stored in the memory (2604). The instructions are executable estimate a current value of a reverse activity bit (1444) transmitted by the access network (204). Per flow power allocation may be decreased on increased based on an estimated current value of the reverse activity bit.
