Power Control Overview
Power control includes uplink power control and downlink
power control, Which are performed independently
Uplink power control: Adjust TX power of MS to let BTS receive
stable signal, reduce the uplink co-channel and adjacent
channel interference, reduce power consumption of MS

Power Control Overview
Process of power control commands
It takes 3 measurement report periods(480ms/period) from
command sending to execution.
BTS sends the command for power SACCCH report period: BTS receives the
control and TA in SACCH header. 26X4=104 frames (480ms) measurement report

Measurement report pre-processing -- interpolation
Each measurement report has a serial number. When the
serial numbers are discontinuous, this indicates that some
measurement reports must be missed. In this case, the
network will fill up the measurement report according to
interpolation algorithm.

Measurement report compensation
Purpose: Ensure the accuracy of selection of the history measurement
report before filtering.
Implementation steps:
1. Put the current receiving measurement report into the measurement report
compensation queue.
2. Record the changed information of the transmitting power according to the
MS and BTS power levels in the measurement report.
3. After finish the measurement report interpolation, system will compensate
the receiving level of the history measurement report according to the power
change information. The compensated measurement reports will be the
original data in the filter process.
4. Filter the compensated measurement reports.

Measurement report prediction
Purpose: Avoid power control later than needed, the delay is
dangerous in case of poor level or bad quality
Implementation procedure
1. Analyze the tendency of MR by the historical measurement
reports after interpolation.
2. Guide by the tendency, to predict the values of measurement
report to be received. There are 0~3 measurement reports
prediction, which are configured on OMC.
3. Filter the interpolated, compensated and predicted
measurement reports, and implement power control judgment.

HW II Power Control Implementation
Power control demand based on receiving level.
After measurement report pre-processing, the power control
module makes a comparison between the expected signal
level and the current receiving signal level.
Calculate the transmitting power level step size to be adjusted,
making the receiving level value closer to the expected value.
Adopt variable step size when adjusting the transmitting power
according to the receiving level, so as to achieve the expected
level as soon as possible.

HW II Power Control Feature
Adaptive power control:
Adaptive power control refers to changeable power control
strategy according to the communication environment, it makes
power control more effective and stable.
Automatically change the adjustable maximum step size of power
control according to different communication environment
(different receiving quality).
Adopt different power control strategies according to different
communication environments (different receiving quality and level).
Max. step is different between increase and decrease.

HW II Power Control Feature
Power control within the upper/lower thresholds
As for HW II power control in case of calculating power
control step size according to signal level and quality, the
signal level and quality have upper/lower thresholds. Power
control will not execute if the signal level and quality is within
the threshold bands.

Given conditions:
The uplink receiving level is -55dBm, the quality is level 0. Power control
algorithm is HW II.
Data configuration is as follows: Uplink signal level upper threshold: -
60dBm, uplink signal level lower threshold: - 80dBm. Uplink signal upper
quality threshold: level 1. Uplink signal lower quality threshold: level 2. The
downward adjustable step size of quality band 0 is 16dB, of quality band 1
is 8dB, and of quality 2 is 4 dB. The upward adjustable step size of
receiving level is 16dB. The upward or downward adjustable step size for
power control by quality are both 4dB.
Question: What will be the uplink stable receiving level after power
control?

Exercises for HW II power control
Answer.
First, transmitting power to be reduced according to receiving level =
actual receiving level -(uplink signal level upper threshold + uplink signal
level lower threshold)/2 =-55- (-60 + (-80))/2=(-55)-(-70)=15dB. As the
receiving quality is level 0, downward adjustable step size of quality band 0
can be used -- decrease 16dB.
Second, the transmitting power to be decreased according to receiving
quality = as “power control adjustment step size by quality” is 4dB, thus
decrease 4dB.
Therefore, according to the general judgement on power control, 15dB
should be decreased.

Answer .
After the implementation of step 1 power control, the receiving
level becomes: -55dBm-15dB= -70dBm, Suppose the quality reach
already in level 1 here.
