Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for managing capacity in a spread spectrum communication system including a base station and a plurality of subscriber stations. SOLUTION: The base station includes the processes for: measuring the transmission power levels of a connection channel and a plurality of message channels; comparing the transmission power levels with a first prescribed power value to generate a power comparison result value; and setting a traffic connection value in the first prescribed value to interrupt the transmission of an allocated channel and the message channels of each of the subscriber stations when the transmission power level is consequently equal to or more than the prescribed power value. Each of the subscriber stations includes the processes for: allocating a transmission power level to measure a channel and a message channel; comparing the transmission power level with a second prescribed value; and displaying a maximum power state in the base station when one transmission power level is equal to or more than the second prescribed value. The base station further includes a process for interrupting the transmission of the allocated channel and message channel of each of the subscriber stations in response to the maximum power state.

Abstract: An automatic power control (APC) system for a spread-spectrum communications system includes an automatic forward power control (AFPC) system, and an automatic reverse power control (ARPC) system. In the AFPC, each subscriber unit (SU) measures a forward signal-to-noise ratio of a respective forward channel information signal to generate a respective forward channel error signal which includes a measure of the uncorrelated noise in the channel and a measure of the error between the respective forward signal-to-noise ration and a pre determined signal-to-noise value. A control signal generated from the respective forward channel error signal is transmitted as part of a respective reverse channel information signal. A base unit includes AFPC receivers which receive respective reverse channel information signals and extract the forward channel error signals therefrom to adjust the power levels of the respective forward spread-spectrum signals. In the ARPC system, each base measures a reverse signal-to-noise ratio of each of the respective reverse channel information signals and generates a respective reverse channel error signal which includes a measure of the uncorrelated noise in the channel and a measure of the error between the respective reverse signal-to- noise ratio anda pre determined signal-to-noise value. The base unit transmits a control signal generated from the respective reverse channel error signal as a part of a respective forward channel information signal. Each SU includes an ARPC receiver which receives the forward channel information signal and extracts the respective reverse error signal to adjust the reverse transmit power level of the respective reverse spread-spectrum signal.

Abstract: A MULTIPLE ACCESS, SPREAD-SPECTRUM COMMUNICATION SYSTEM PROCESSES A PLURALITY OF INFORMATION SIGNALS RECEIVED BY A RADIO CARRIER STATION (RCS) OVER TELECOMMUNICATION LINES FOR SIMULTANEOUS TRANSMISSION OVER A RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) CHANNEL AS A CODE-DIVISION-MULTIPLEXED (CDM) SIGNAL TO A GROUP OF SUBSCRIBER UNITS (SUS). THE RCS RECEIVES A CALL REQUEST SIGNAL THAT CORRESPONDS TO A TELECOMMUNICATION LINE INFORMATION SIGNAL, AND A USER IDENTIFICATION SIGNAL THAT IDENTIFIES A USER TO RECEIVE THE CALL. THE RCS INCLUDES A PLURALITY OF CODE DIVISION MULTIPLE ACCESS (CDMA) MODEMS, ONE OF WHICH PROVIDES A GLOBAL PILOT CODE SIGNAL. THE MODEMS PROVIDE MESSAGE CODE SIGNAL SYNCHRONIZED TO THE GLOBAL PILOT SIGNAL. EACH MODEMS COMBINES AN INFORMATION SIGNAL WITH A MESSAGE CODE SIGNAL TO PROVIDE A CDM PROCESSED SIGNAL.THE RCS INCLUDES A SYSTEM CHANNEL CONTROLLER COUPLED TO RECEIVE A REMOTE CALL. AN RF TRANSMITTER IS CONNECTED TO ALL OF THE MODEMS TO COMBINE THE CDM SIGNAL. THE RF TRANSMITTER ALSO MODULATES A CARRIER SIGNAL WITH THE CDM SIGNAL AND TRANSMITS THE MODULATED CARRIER SIGNAL THROUGH AN RF COMMUNICATION CHANNEL TO THE SUS.EACH SU INCLUDES A CDMA MODEM WHICH IS ALSO SYNCHRONIZED TO THE GLOBAL PILOT SIGNAL. THE CDMA MODEM DESPREADS THE CDM SIGNAL, AND PROVIDES A DESPREAD INFORMATION SIGNAL TO THE USER.THE SYSTEM INCLUDES A CLOSED LOOP POWER CONTROL SYSTEM FOR MAINTAINING A MINIMUM SYSTEM TRANSMIT POWER LEVEL FOR THE RCS AND THE SUS, AND SYSTEM CAPACITY MANAGEMENT FOR MAINTAINING A MAXIMUM NUMBER OF ACTIVE SUS FOR IMPROVED SYSTEM PERFORMANCE.(FIG 1)

Abstract: An automatic power control (APC) system for a spread-spectrum communications system includes an automatic forward power control (AFPC) system, and an automatic reverse power control (ARPC) system. In the AFPC, each subscriber unit (SU) measures a forward signal-to-noise ratio of a respective forward channel information signal to generate a respective forward channel error signal which includes a measure of the uncorrelated noise in the channel and a measure of the error between the respective forward signal-to-noise ration and a pre determined signal-to-noise value. A control signal generated from the respective forward chancel error signal is transmitted as part of a respective reverse channel information signal. A base unit includes AFPC receivers which receive respective reverse channel information signals and extract the forward channel error signals therefrom to adjust the power levels of the respective forward spread-spectrum signals. In the ARPC system, each base measures a reverse signal-to-noise ratio of each of the respective reverse channel information signals and generates a respective reverse channel error signal which includes a measure of the uncorrelated noise in the channel and a measure of the error between the respective reverse signal-to- noise ratio and a pre determined signal-to-noise value. The base unit transmits a control signal generated from the respective reverse channel error signal as a part of a respective forward channel information signal. Each SU includes an ARPC receiver which receives the forward channel information signal and extracts the respective reverse error signal to adjust the reverse transmit power level of the respective reverse spread-spectrum signal.
