1. A method for use by a transceiver of a first device communicating over a wireless communication system with a second device, the method characterized in that it comprises:

  • upon a receiver portion (100) of the transceiver of the first device completing making measurements needed for power control, transitioning the receiver portion (100) from a power control measurement mode (52) for making at least one predetermined power control measurement, in which at least one power control measurement is made for power control of either the first device or the second device, to an adaptive tuning mode (51), in which the receiver portion (100) adapts to current conditions and so is tuned to an adaptively selected internal state; and

    upon the receiver portion (100) of the first device being again scheduled to make measurements needed for power control, transitioning the receiver portion (100) of the transceiver of the first device from the adaptive tuning mode (51), and so from the adaptively selected internal state, to the power control measurement mode (52).
