METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR A POWER CONTROL MECHANISM
First Claim
1. A method for controlling a transmission power of uplink channels, the method comprising:
- calculating a difference between a transmission power of a first uplink channel and a transmission power of a second uplink channel; and
adjusting the transmission power of at least the first uplink channel and/or the second uplink channel when the calculated difference is greater than a threshold.

Abstract
A user equipment (UE) may reduce the difference in transmit power between the uplink channel and enhanced high speed channel so that the base station may decode the uplink channel. The UE may determine the transmit power level for the uplink channel, such as dedicated physical channel, and the transmit power level for the enhanced high speed channel, such as shared information channel, and reduce the power difference when the power difference is greater than a threshold. The power difference may be reduced by increasing or decreasing the power of the enhanced high speed channel and/or increasing or decreasing the power of the uplink channel.
