Patent attributes
An outer loop power control method including determining, according to a target value of each control channel performance indicator of user equipment (UE) in each cell, a target value of at least one performance mapping indicator of the UE in each cell, acquiring a measured value of the at least one performance mapping indicator of the UE, determining a signal-to-noise ratio target value of the UE in each cell according to the target value of the at least one performance mapping indicator of the UE in each cell and the corresponding measured value of the performance mapping indicator, and performing outer loop power control on the UE in each cell according to the signal-to-noise ratio target value of the UE in each cell. The signal-to-noise ratio target value is controlled according to control channel quality.
