Abstract
In a spread spectrum communication system, one (Wn) of a series of orthogonal codes for spectrum spreading is assigned to signal-to-noise ratio measurement in a terminal. On the basis of a noise signal detected by de-spreading a signal received from an antenna with the above described orthogonal code (Wn) and a pilot signal, each terminal derives a signal-to-noise ratio. Each terminal transmits the signal-to-noise ratio to the base station as a power control signal. On the basis of signal-to-noise information received from each terminal as the power control signal, the base station controls signal transmission power for each terminal.

2. A transmission control method for a base station in a spread spectrum communication system, comprising the steps of:
-
transmitting, from said base station, a first signal via a first channel;
receiving, at a mobile terminal in said/spread spectrum communication system, said first signal and measuring said received first signal;
transmitting, from said mobile terminal, a second signal to said base station generated according to said measured first signal; and
receiving, at said base station, said second signal, and controlling, based on said second signal, a third signal which is to be transmitted to said mobile terminal from said base station via a second channel. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)

9. A base station for communicating with a mobile station in a wireless communication system, comprising:
-
a transmitting circuit for transmitting a first signal over a first channel, and a second signal over a second channel;
a reception circuit for receiving a third signal transmitted from said mobile station; and
a transmission controller for controlling transmission of a signal, wherein said third signal received from said mobile station is generated by the mobile station according to a measurement of said first signal received at said mobile station, and wherein said transmission controller controls transmission of said second signal to said mobile station based on said third signal. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
