1. A method of transmitting at various bit rates to improve coverage area of a cell, comprising the steps of:

  • transmitting by a mobile station at a first bit rate;

    transmitting by the mobile station at a second bit rate responsive to a determination that a transmit power of the mobile station exceeds an alarm-power threshold; and

    transmitting by the mobile station at a third bit rate responsive to a determination that the transmit power of the mobile station has not exceeded a lower-power threshold for a predetermined time period wherein the first bit rate and the second bit rate belong to the same transport format combination set.
