    摘要: Disclosed herein is a communication system which manages guarantee of service (GOS) requirements for various users while efficiently managing backhaul network traffic and optimizing overall system capacity. In one aspect, armed handoff is used to transmit forward link data from a single base station to a particular mobile station as long as certain minimum requirements are met, such as minimum data throughput, minimum data rate, and GOS requirements. If these criteria are not met, soft and softer handoff can be employed to transmit forward link data from one or more base stations to a particular mobile station until the conditions for armed handoff are met. In another aspect, the test to add a base station sector to the active set differs based on whether other sectors of that base station already exist in the active set. The test is less stringent when a sector is not the first of its base station to enter the active set, and more stringent when it is the first.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for selecting a communication system in accordance with geographic region of the subscriber station. The subscriber station first attempts to determine its geographic region. It does so by attempting to acquire a system which covers the region. Once the subscriber station has determined its geographic region, the subscriber station then determines whether the acquired system is the most desirable system for use in the geographical region. If it is the most desirable system for use in the geographical region, the subscriber station registers with the acquired system. If it is not the most desirable system for use in the geographical region, the subscriber station attempts to acquire a more desirable system.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for controlling transmission power in a variable rate communication system is disclosed. The method disclosed provides for a closed loop power control method. A first remote station controls the transmission power of a second remote station by transmitting a rate dependent power control signal to the second remote communication station. Since only the second communication knows its transmission rate a priori, it must determine its course of action in accordance with both the received power control signal and the knowledge of its transmission rate. In the present invention, the power control system reduces the amount of overhead required by restricting the possible rate transition of the variable rate communication system. The power control system further increases its efficiency by allocating the power control bits top various rate hypotheses in accordance with the probability of the rate hypothesis and the perceptual impact of power control for frames of data transmitted at the hypothetical rate.
