Methods of reverse link power control are provided. A first example method includes first measuring a first type of interference, second measuring a second type of interference, determining a ratio between the first and second measurements and broadcasting the determined ratio to a plurality of mobile units. A second example method includes receiving a broadcasted ratio indicating a ratio between two different types of interference and calculating a power level for reverse link transmissions based on the received broadcasted ratio. A third example method includes first adjusting OFDMA transmission power based on first feedback signals during an OFDMA transmission and second adjusting OFDMA transmission power based on second feedback signals during periods between OFDMA transmissions. A fourth example method includes receiving a plurality of interference indicating signals from different base stations and determining whether to adjust a maximum transmit power threshold based on the plurality of interference indicating signals, the maximum transmit power threshold indicating the maximum permitted transmission power level below which transmissions are constrained.
