Power control method
First Claim
1. A method for power control in a communication system (100) including a transceiver node (122) capable of communicating with multiple mobile terminals (10), comprising the steps of receiving, at the transceiver node, a transmitter power change request from one of the mobile terminals over a wireless connection;
- determining a power control parameter for the connection at the network side based on connection-specific information indicating the degree of priority associated with the connection; and
distributing transmitter power to the connection in accordance with the power control parameter.

Abstract
A method for downlink power control in wireless communication systems is provided. In response to a transmitter power change request from a mobile terminal (110) over a wireless connection, a power control parameter is determined at network level based on connection-specific information indicating the degree of priority of the connection (DPIi). The power control parameter preferably relates to a maximum connection-specific transmitter power, a power step size and/or a quality target, and is used by the base station to distribute transmitter power (pi) to the connection.
