Description of the Invention: TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to wireless networks and, in particular, to adjusting link transmission power control levels based on the results of monitoring multiple factors. [Prior Art] In multicast and broadcast applications, data is transmitted from a feeder to a multi-receiver via a wired and/or wireless network. A multicast system as used herein is one in which a server transmits the same data simultaneously to one of a plurality of receivers, wherein the receivers form a subset of all of the receivers, up to and including all of the receivers. A broadcast system is one in which a server transmits the same data to one of all receiver systems simultaneously. That is, a multicast system can include a broadcast system as defined. A station can be any wireless device, including (but not limited to) a computer, a laptop computer, a notebook computer, a digital assistant (pDA), a dual-mode smart phone, a user device, and a client. A device, a mobile terminal, and a mobile device. A station can be a transmitter, a receiver or a transceiver. Information transmitted between devices can be text, audio, video or multimedia or any other type of material. The data is usually formatted into packets and/or frames. That is, the frame and the packet are formatted for the convenience of transmission. In the past few years, wireless network deployment has grown rapidly in campus 'shopping malls, hotels, airports, apartment buildings, and homes. Emerging technologies such as the 'IEEE 802.1 1 n radio' make it possible to deliver multimedia content over a wireless network. This increased deployment drove the technology deeper into people's embarrassment. 155295.doc 201220899 Often life. Since the number of available wireless channels is limited, such channels must be used or shared by multiple access points (APs) or base stations (10). In a dense deployment environment, for example, in a multi-dwelling unit deployment of one of the eve APs in an apartment building or hotel, Ap often interferes with each other. This affects the throughput of the overall wireless network, and therefore, affects the quality of service for multimedia streaming applications. A wireless (mobile) device only eight in its vicinity? Associated and communicated. By properly controlling the transmission function of an AP and its associated mobile device, the communication between the Ap and the mobile device can be successfully operated 'and the transmitted signal pair of the Ap or the mobile device is adjacent (adjacent, surrounding area) The communication between the other Ap and its associated mobile device does not cause interference or cause less interference. Can reduce the same-channel reuse distance. That is, other APs and their associated mobile devices within a smaller (less) proximity (distance) can be reused with the same channel for simultaneous transmission without interference. This principle allows many devices to 'communicate with their associated A' in a given area while using only a limited number of wireless channels (links). The lower the transmission power, the less (smaller) the spatial separation (distance) required to reuse the same channel without interference. Therefore, increase the overall network capacity in a dense department: For example, in the _ zone, for a cellular communication network, it has a lower transmission power - the smaller cell size results in a higher overall network capacity b control - wireless device (Ap or mobile device) = transmission power The goal is to use the minimum transmission power of the device while meeting the requirements of the transmission and packet loss rates. Transmission power control helps reduce interference with other channels and ultimately increases the overall capacity of the wireless network. In addition, the battery life. Transmission power control helps save energy and improves the action of the device. The device is close to a transmitter (wireless device 'station) and has a good frequency η value. The transmitter can use low power to transmit the data signal. However, the distance between the thief and a receiver is relatively large and the channel ^ is not good _ 6 hai transmission a needs to increase the power to transmit data to ensure that the receiving H receives correctly and maintains the link delivery amount. The challenge is how a transmitter determines and adapts (if the channel conditions change) its transmission power to optimally transmit the data k number to a receiver. In a prior art study, a transmission power control algorithm was proposed to reduce interference in the IEEE 802.U wireless network and increase its capacity. It adapts the transmission power based on the packet loss rate 'however, it requires some samples to be paid - accurate packet loss rate' resulting in a long measurement time and a slow response to channel condition changes. In addition, it is also difficult to accurately adapt the transmission power based only on the packet loss rate. Transmission power control is performed based only on the received signal strength in another prior art study. This approach can lead to hidden nodes and asymmetric channel access issues. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to an adaptive algorithm for per-switch transmission power control (TPC) in a powered wireless network, particularly for an IEEE 802.11 wireless local area network (WLAN) in a densely deployed environment. It takes all the time to reduce transmission power to mitigate interference, improve channel reuse and overall network capacity, while meeting the loss requirements of transport 1 and frame (package). Unlike previous transmission power control solutions, the method of the present invention utilizes both received signal strengths 155295.doc 201220899 indicator (RSSI) measurements and frame loss rate (FLR) measurements to determine the most required transmission to the station. Good transmission power. In particular, the method of the present invention is capable of coping with typical hidden terminal problems that are often exacerbated by changes in transmission power and access to the right channel. The design of the method* makes unrealistic assumptions and the solution does not require any modification to existing media access control protocols. The TPC method of the present invention is complementary to any-link rate adaptive algorithm because it mitigates any negative effects of transmission power changes on rate control. These attributes make it possible to conveniently and incrementally deploy the method of the present invention. This paper describes a transmission power control method that optimizes transmitter power to reduce interference, & good channel reuse and overall network capacity, and save energy while meeting the requirements for throughput and packet (frame) loss rate. The method of the present invention intelligently adjusts transmission power based on actively monitoring a plurality of parameters (factors), including received signal strength and frame (packet) loss at the receiver, and a method for determining transmission power The device includes: a first-mode operation until - the first timer expires and receives a first, = exchange heart - the second mode operates until the first: counts: the device expires and Receiving one of the second mode switching messages in the second mode, in response to the self-associated access point receiving = rate level instruction and if the large transmission power has not been received from the associated access point Medium--(4)-transmission power, and in the mth of receiving, the transmission power is transmitted from the associated access point μ power level command and in response to a frame transmission loss rate 155295.doc 201220899 It is determined that one of the transmission powers is applied to the largest one of the recognitions. A method and apparatus for a port-to-transmission power measurement report request, including a received transmission power measurement request, measuring a received signal strength, estimating a loop margin (_(4), and responding to the The transmission power measurement request transmits a transmission power measurement report including the measured received signal strength and the estimated downlink key margin. The method and apparatus for determining a transmission power are also described herein. The packet operates in a first mode until a first timer expires and a mode switch message is reached, and the second mode operates until the second timer expires and is received - the second mode switch One of the messages, and wherein in the first mode, the downlink transmission power is one of the maximum transmission power and one of the downlink transmission powers t is determined in response to a received signal strength, and Further, in the second mode, the downlink transmission power is determined in response to the frame transmission loss rate and the received signal strength, and further wherein in the second mode, Determining one of the aggregated downlink transmission powers for all associated UEs and determining one of each link downlink transmission power for each associated client. [Embodiment] The present invention is described in detail below and incorporated by reference. The present invention is best understood using the IEEE 802 Π Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). However, the present invention can be used in other wireless networks. In the past few years, In campuses, shopping malls, hotels, airports, apartments, 155295.doc 201220899 floor and homes, 'wireless local area network (WLAN) deployment has rapidly increased. More and more affordable new technologies (for example, IEEE 8〇2.1 In) making it possible to deliver multimedia content over a wireless network and this drives the technology further into people's daily lives. The number of available wireless channels is limited (3 non-overlapping channels in the 2.4 GHz unlicensed spectrum and Up to 24 non-overlapping channels in the 5 GHz unlicensed spectrum), so these available channels must consist of several access points (Ap) and numbers The station (STA) or WLAN uses a common multiple of example, one having a dense deployment of the WLAN multi-dwelling unit _υ) (eg - apartment building or hotel), the transmission between different cells tend to interfere with each other. This will negatively impact the aggregated wireless network throughput and thus the quality of experience for applications such as multimedia streaming. Figure la shows an example deployment scenario. Use a satellite TV-ip (Internet Protocol) gateway - a billion-bit Ethernet backbone and ieee 8〇2 u AP to spread high-definition (10) video to a building (for example, a hotel) Or the wireless video converter (STB) in the apartment building. Multiple adjacent aj^sta in the vicinity leads to severe inter-cell interference. The existing Ap has a preset factory setting that the terminal user rarely changes. Therefore, there is a need, for example, to transmit power control-automatic operating parameter adaptive methods to adaptively operate the environment and optimize the overall network to demonstrate another deployment scenario in which two of the non-infrared network delivers content. In this case, the gateway receives the inner valley (including (but not limited to, 立·) θδί1, video and multimedia data) via the connection of the stalker, the road or any other resource. The gateway has a channel s s ^ negative channel selection and power control process and method. Methods such as 155295.doc 201220899 include the ability to perform link measurements to achieve transmission power control and channel selection. The gateway can be a master video converter. Transmission Power Control (TPC) is dedicated to using a minimum transmission power that achieves successful transmission while meeting a data rate requirement. An effective design is challenging because it must take into account the interference effects of different network topologies and deployment scenarios, such as hidden nodes and two operations on the same-frequency it. Channel access asymmetry between links. To illustrate these effects, Figure Bu summarizes the interaction between the two transmitter (Τχ)·receiver (4) links. In the circle lc, one of the solid arrows of tTX to Rx indicates the communication range of the RWTx. From the TXUTXR_dashed line; the header (--) indicates that τχ1 can be sensed by 载波2 (i.e., Τχ1 is in the interference range of Τχ2). When the TPC method of the present invention is applied to a link, it can result in any of the situations presented in Figure lc. Case (4) indicates that the application of Μ causes the full space reuse (i.e., Τχ1 can be transmitted to the same case as W transmission to Rx2 at the same time). Case (b) indicates that there is no gain for space reuse's, but if it is possible to maintain the target data rate, the lowest possible transmission power operating system is the smart choice. The links Tx 1 _Rx i and W share the same channel. Case (4) indicates channel access asymmetry. The Txl_>Rxl key is insufficient, because Τχ2 cannot sense the transmission of Τχ1 and is always perceived—no interference frequency C and transmitted to RX2. Tx 1 always senses that the frequency is too busy and cannot be transmitted. Case (4) also results in channel access asymmetry, but the problem indicates itself in the form of packet loss at Rju, since Τχ2 is transmitted during transmission. Case (4) represents a typical hidden terminal problem. Transmitter ΤΗ 155295.doc 201220899 Τχ 2 is not in the carrier sensing range of each other, but the receiver Rx is still

Tx2兩者之干擾範圍中。當Τχ2正在傳輸時,Τχ 1可感測一 無干擾頻道且傳輸至Rxl。自Txl及Τχ2之傳輸在Rxl處相 撞且Rx 1不能正確地接收封包。在情形⑴中,Τχ〗及Τχ2對The interference range of both Tx2.

(2. This prior art cannot account for the situation (c), (d ), (e), and (1), because the prior art method relies on only one trigger, the received signal strength (RSSI) measurement or frame loss rate (FLR) measurement frame (packet) loss rate (FLR) Measurements. In fact, their previous transmission power control methods tend to aggravate hidden nodes and asymmetric channel access problems in cases (c) (d), (e), and (f). The right control power solution is based only on RSSI measurement can not diagnose hidden terminal problems and asymmetric channel access problems and performance will be degraded due to frame (packet) loss. The solution based on frame (packet) loss rate measurement is not unimportant. The reason for accurately inferring the minimum number of samples required for channel conditions is the critical design choice and the frame (packet) loss rate measurement also takes a lot of time to converge. In the present invention, the description is based on RSSI measurement and FLR measurement. One of the two adaptive per link T PC solution. The method of the present invention addresses all of the above scenarios and solves the problem of hidden nodes and asymmetric channel accesses, which quickly converges to the optimal transmission power to be operated by it. In addition, the sinking method of the present invention and any rate (4) The algorithm complements each other because it can gradually reduce any negative impact on rate control. In the present invention, in order to determine the transmission power, an AP requests its associated 155295.doc 201220899 wireless subscriber (station (STA) Each of the mobile devices measures the received signal strength, reports the received signal strength (7) "^ and / or its estimated link margin and the current transmit power of the UE. Link Linkage The channel SNR or the difference between the received (available) channel signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) or RSSI and reliable communication (which satisfies the packet loss rate and the link transmission data rate requirement). In multicast, the AP periodically transmits the transmission. The power control (TpC) measurement request message to its associated client or in unicast, Ap periodically sends a Transmission Power Control (TPC) measurement request message to the mother of its associated client - In addition, once associated with a new client, the request is sent to the new client. The requested client receives the request to measure the received signal power, estimate the downlink margin, and Sending a C measurement report message to report the received signal strength and/or the estimated juice boundary limit and its transmission power to the Ap. Here, the τ line link is self-transmitted to the user terminal (4) And the uplink (4) self-service terminal to the transmission link of the Αρ. The following describes the link edge estimation. The Αρ and the UE also measure the packets on the downlink and uplink respectively. The transmission loss is measured by the received signal strength or the key edge 2 and/or frame (packet) loss reported by the user (station), and the ΑΡ determines its required downlink, and transmission power. This transmission power will satisfy the throughput and packet loss rate requirements while causing minimal interference to other adjacent materials. The Α ρ also determines its transmission power of the associated UE and indicates that the power determined by the UE is used for uplink transmission.

At 205, the TPC measurement ancestor & ’ s 's ten-time Tm is set. It should be noted that for the example embodiments herein, .7 is used for all timers, and an incremental 3 octave or decrement timer can be used. At 2 ,, a test is performed to determine if the timer has expired. If the timer is still full, then a test is performed at 215 to determine if a new client a (the station σ) has been associated with the Ap. If a new client has not been associated with the AP, processing continues to 21〇. If the new client has been associated with the AP, then at 22 ,, a measurement request is sent (forwarded) to the newly associated client. Then processing continues

Figure 2b is a flow chart of the Tpc measurement operation from the perspective of the user. At 230, the merchant receives a Tpc measurement request. This measurement request can be received because the timer in the AP expires or because the client is associated with a new one. At 235, the UE (station, terminal) measures the received signal strength of its downlink. At 2峨, the terminal (station, terminal) estimates its downlink margin. At 245, the UE sends the results (downlink margin and signal strength received by the downlink link) to its associated port. The false δ and δ hai client have been associated with a Αρ. The TPC method of this month is used to control the transmission power as low as possible, while maintaining the target data rate scale and a target packet loss rate. In the real [m embodiment, the target data rate is set to the transmitter and the receiver: the highest data rate supported by both. The reason for this is that the transmission time of the frame is minimized so that the transmission time of the frame is minimized so that 155295.doc -13-201220899 minimizes the time that one transmitter interferes with other devices. The target packet loss rate can be set to the same value as the value used to determine the sensitivity of the receiver to the target data rate or small enough to ensure a value for the quality of service. Receiver sensitivity is the minimum received signal power (intensity) required for a target link data rate and a target packet loss rate. The target data rate and/or other values of the target packet loss rate can be selected in different ways. In order to maintain the target data rate of the user terminal, the target downlink received power pri is equal to the target Pri=Sti+O (1) where ~ the receiver is sensitive to the target data rate and the D is beyond the receiver. Sensitivity to compensate for the fluctuations in channel conditions. It is a configurable parameter.

I55295.doc 201220899 The AP or station can select the value of the target data rate in different ways. The target data rate can be determined by notifying the stations. One method of notifying the station of the target data rate is to include the target data rate value in, for example, one of the TPC request control messages. Another method is to transmit the TPC request at the target data rate. If the target data rate is the rate at which the TPC request is sent, then the value of the link edge limit (i.e., the receiver sensitivity used to calculate Μ in equation (3)) is the value of the data rate at which the Tpc request is transmitted. The value of Μ, which is a function of receiver sensitivity, should be calculated based on the target data rate (i.e., to calculate the sensitivity of the receiver sensitivity receiver to the target data rate). In the alternative, the target data rate can be configured, for example, it can be set to the maximum data rate supported by both the transmitter and the receiver.

Controlling transmission power. Different transmission power values are used for different UEs (receiver or destination address). Alternative implementation of the present invention In the AP, the AP does not change its transmission power according to the UE. The AP determines its transmission power based on the worst user. It selects a transmission power value to ensure that the downlink (four) receives the W strength at its most affected end. For the user, it is high enough to successfully decode the received frame transmitted at the data rate.

In an exemplary embodiment, the Ap periodically periodically transmits its frame (packet) loss rate (flr) for its downlink transmission to a client. If during the time interval (for example, X seconds), a user's moxibustion flr(4) is greater than a high threshold (4), that is, FLR (_F, then the Ap adds a value p to the transmission power of the user terminal, The current AP transmission power system used for the transmission from the Ap to the user moxibustion is used for the maximum transmission power supported by the (submitted) new transmission power system P^^Ap of the user-delivered Ap transmission.

An exemplary embodiment supports two modes of operation at the AP.

If the quality of the link is suddenly degraded and the terminal kRSS! and the link edge measurement report are lost in a specific time interval (expiration timer Te), the Ap uses the maximum transmission power for the user to use to the client. Transmission. In mode 2, the AP periodically monitors the FLR (using the adjustment timer Ta) individually for each of its clients, for the client-side moxibustion FLR (4) or to all of its associated clients (4) The summary frame loss rate (FLR) of the road transmission.

An AP can use one of these modes to determine its transmission power. Another option is that -AP can operate in two modes in a time sharing mode. That is, an AP switches to mode 2 after it has been operating in mode 达 for a period of time. An AP switches from mode 1 to mode 2 after it has been in mode 丨 for a period of time τι or has received a mode 丨 to mode 2 switch message from one of its neighboring APs. When an AP switches from mode to mode 2, the Ap will instruct its mode change mode to switch the message broadcast (multicast, broadcast) to its neighboring APs and their associated clients to announce that the Ap is now in mode. 2 operation. The AP also updates (resets) its timer 仞. Similarly, an Ap switches to mode after it has been operating in mode 2 for a time period T2 or has received a mode 2 to mode 1 switching message from one of its neighboring Ap commands and multicasts a mode switching message ( Broadcast, spread) to its neighbors. An Ap updates (resets) its timer T1 and broadcasts (multicasts, propagates) the mode switch message to its neighbors and its associated clients to announce that the AP is now operating in mode. In this way, the operational mode of the adjacent (adjacent) Ap is loosely synchronized. By operating in two modes in a time sharing manner, the method of the present invention effectively handles hidden node and asymmetric channel access problems as described below. In a first real money, test 4 ticked the mode i Tpc operation and used only 155295.doc •20- 201220899 to the link quality of the user terminal such as β (received signal strength and key edge π measurement report) One of the low-passing powers, but the other Αρ(Αρ2) does not perform power control at all and always uses high power. ΑΡ2 is called a non-cooperative jammer. ΑΡ2 interferes with its transmission, but Αρι does not interfere with the transmission of Αρ2, this Resulting in asymmetric channel access conditions. Αρι is hidden from Ap2. By switching to mode 2, if the frame (packet) loss rate of AP1 is unfair due to collision or asymmetric channel bandwidth sharing If the value is high, the API increases its transmission power. If the channel capacity (bandwidth) obtained by Αρι is unfair due to the low transmission power used by the API and is less than its traffic load, its frame (packet) loss rate In mode 2, Αρι increases its transmission power to obtain its fair channel bandwidth share. In a second instance ten, packet (frame) loss can be caused by congestion or link transmission errors. Due to link transmission When an error occurs, it is desirable to increase the transmission power. On the other hand, if the packet loss is due to congestion, increasing the transmission power will not help and may increase the congestion problem due to interference. For example, consider the pair of two Aps and stations ( Ap_>STA1 AP2 STA2). These pairs operate in mode 2 Tpc, which therefore does not interfere with each other according to the use of low transmission power. If Ap2 increases its transmission power to react to the sudden movement of STA2, then §ται The loss of frame (packet) due to packet interference and collision (due to interference from AP2) caused the transmission power of AP1 to increase. The two pairs that start to interfere with each other and even worse can abandon the total traffic load can be heavy, resulting in congestion. If only TPC mode 2 ’ is used, even if STA2 returns and is close to Ap2, the transmission power of Ap2 is not reduced due to continuous interference and packet loss. By synchronously switching to mode, the two Aps will reduce their respective transmission power based on the quality test report from their associated user #. Therefore, the APs and their associated clients (stations) will no longer interfere with each other. If the traffic on each AP is less than the channel capacity, the congestion condition is removed. Furthermore, later when the APs switch from mode to mode 2, the APs will no longer interfere with each other, the packet loss rate remains low and it will not increase its transmission power. 3a and 3b are flowcharts of the AP (Summary) Transmission Power Control (Tpc) program (operation mode (2) according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Circle 3a and FIG. 3b are independent threads or processing procedures. Operation, but the data generated (established) or updated by the operation thread or processing program can be obtained by other operating threads or programs and can be used by it. At 3〇5, Ap sets the loss rate of two frames (packets). Limit values (HFT and LFT) and setting a frame (packet) loss rate measurement timer (Up_timea D〇wn_timer). In this exemplary embodiment, both FLR measurement timers are countdown timers, but It can only {easily and conveniently count up the chronograph. At 31 ,, a test s is performed to determine if a Tpc report has been received. If a -TPC report has been received, then at 315, The Ap estimates the uplink path (link, channel) loss of the client moxibustion. At 320, the AP targets the downlink side of the user (the (4) TPC report received) and the uplink path (keyway) , channel) loss stored in the database In memory, buffer, or any other storage medium. At 325, the AP estimates the required (target) downlink transmission power for transmission to the UE.

This is used by the operation thread shown in Figure 3b (395) and for user 鳊A The client process set up and sent to this Ap continues to 310. If a Tpc report has not been received, then at 335 the Ap determines the frame (packet) transmission loss rate (FLR) of the downlink transmission. Perform a test at 34〇 to determine if the FLR is greater than or equal to the high frame loss rate threshold (HFT). If the FLR is less than the high frame loss rate threshold (hft), execute one at 360 The test determines whether the FLR is less than or equal to the low frame loss rate threshold (LFT). If the FLR is less than or equal to the low frame loss rate 6a limit (LFT) ' then at 365, the Up_timer is reset. A test is performed at 370 to determine if the Down-timer has expired. If wn_Umer has not expired, the process proceeds to 31. If D〇wn_timer has expired, then at 375, the AP estimates that the transfer function for each user-free transmission is PpLRk = max{Ptk_Pd , min p}. This also sets an I new flag and resets both Up_timer and D〇Wn_timer. Then, the process proceeds to 310. If the FLR is greater than the low frame loss rate threshold (LFT), then at 38〇 The AP resets both Up_timer and Down_timer. Processing continues to 310. If the FLR is greater than or equal to the high frame loss rate threshold (hft), then at 345, the AP resets the Down_timer. At 350, a test is performed to determine if the Upjimer has expired. If gUp_timer has not expired, processing proceeds to 310. If the Up_timer has expired, then at 355, the AP estimates that the transmission power for each user's moxibustion transmission is (10).

At 301, a test is performed to determine if the TPC power adjustment timer L has expired. If the TPC power adjustment timer Ta has expired, processing proceeds to 390. If the TPC power adjustment has not expired, the process continues to the milk. Figure and circle 3c - an AP transmission power control (Tpc) program (operation mode) using information reported by a user to know link quality (received signal strength and link margin) according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention (10) A flowchart. Figures 3b and 3c operate as independent threads or handlers, but the data generated (established) or updated by the thread or the handler can be obtained and used by other threads or handlers. At 3〇6, the AP sets the -TPC power adjustment timer Tb and also sets the expiration (expiration) timer Te. At the river, a test is performed to determine whether a TPC report has been received. Upon receipt of a TPC report, at 316, the AP estimates the uplink path (link, channel) loss of the client moxibustion. At 321 (at the memory, the AP shoots the downlink key margin for the user ( In the case of the receipt of the report, and the loss of the uplink path (link, channel) is stored in a database buffer or any other storage medium.

If the TPC report has not been received, then '仃-test at 336 to determine if the TPC power adjustment timer 1 has expired and if all the terminals have been lost during the expiration (expiration) time period (interval) kTPC report. If the TPC power adjustment timer Tb has expired in the right expired (expired) time period Te (interval), all the TPC reports from the use of = have been lost, then at 341, the Ap will be used to the user-like input. The power is set to p and the expired (expired) timing is reset. If the TPC power adjustment timer Tb has not expired or if all the users from the user end have not been lost during the expiration (to) time period, the TPC report β is 'executed at 346' to test the Tpc power adjustment. The timer Tb has expired. If the TPC power adjustment timer has not expired, the process proceeds to 311. If the TPC power adjustment timer has expired, then at 351, the AP sets the transmission power for transmission to the user to and resets the TPC power adjustment timer Tb.

The operation is again performed by the mode 1 and the AP setting mode 1 is operated to steal the T1. A test is performed at 361 to determine if the timer w has expired or if the AP has received a mode 1 to mode change message (from a neighboring AP). When the right timer T1 has expired or the Ap has been received - mode 1 to mode 155295.doc -25 - 201220899 mode 2 switching message (from a neighboring AP), then at 366, the AP switches to TPC mode 2 The TPC Mode 2 is operated and set to operate the timer T2 and a Mode 1 to Mode 2 switching message is propagated (broadcast, multicast) to its neighboring Ap and its associated UE. A test is performed at 3 71 to determine if the timer 2 has expired or if the mode has received a mode 2 to mode switch message. If timer Τ2 has not expired and the Αρ has not received a mode 2 to mode i switching message, then at 376, a test is performed to determine if the mode has received a mode 1 to mode 2 switching message. If the Ap has not received a mode switch to mode 2 switch, the process proceeds to 3 ιι. If the Ap has received a mode 1 to mode 2 switching message, then at 3 8 ,, the Ap resets the Tpc mode 2 operation timer T2. Processing then proceeds to 371.

Alternatively, it may be the maximum allowed (permitted) transmission power or the maximum supported power and the maximum allowed transmission power specified in the Ap beacon or the discovery response, ie A (9)=min {max P„_suppw,max (4)/w} (28) The new client (just turned on) will use this maximum power for correlation and transmission until it successfully receives the AP's instruction to change its transmit power. When the new client is associated with an AP, the Ap issues a -TPC request for the new client after the associated process. After receiving the TPC report from the client, the AP determines and adapts the uplink and downlink. Link transmission power. The use-management (control) message develops the updated uplink transmission power to the UE or advertises the updated uplink transmission power in the beacon to indicate that the user uses the updated (new) The transmission power value is used for uplink transmission. For sudden deterioration of link quality or link loss (for example, if the UE moves away or is interfered by the receiver side at the AP) (frame): Loss Make In response, the UE also monitors its frame (packet) loss rate and base; the packet loss rate adjusts the transmission power. In an exemplary embodiment, the UE transmits to its associated AP uplink transmission cycle. Sexually determine its frame (packet) loss: (FLRc).

The maximum (four) way power allowed (supported, permitted) is the smaller of ^, that is, the new transmission power is Putk=zmin{Putk+Pud> max Puk} (29) due to the user end The transmission power is changed to account for sudden degradation of link quality, so the UE continues to periodically monitor the FLRe and adjust its transmission power as described above until the frame (packet) loss rate is below the threshold LFTe , that is, FLRe < LFTe. MW is less than For a specific time interval (for example, just after the user transmits its uplink key transmission power reduction value Pud and the user terminal fills the new transmission power of the uplink key transmission line, the minimum transmission power center supported by the Push_PJ client end The larger value in ^, that is, the new transmission power is PUtk = max{ Putk-Pud, min Puk} (3〇) and the client continues to monitor FLRc as a avoidance at two power levels (one power level) One of the prevention mechanisms of repeated switching between FLRc<LFTc and another-power level flRc>hfTc), when FLRk<LFTc can assign a transition from a higher power level to a lower power level transition Probability (less than 1). HFTc, LFTc, and especially;; configurable design tuning parameters. Similar to the AP, the client can support two modes of operation. In the first mode, the UE selects to operate with the transmission power for which the gossip is determined, the transmission power being measured based only on the received signal strength. That is, Μ4, \_Pul(k)^pulkt pi) where C is the AP based on the received signal strength measurement to determine that the station is using I55295.doc -33- 201220899 and the power is available. (26) 'or if the per-cell pass power control is used;" in mode 1, if the downlink quality suddenly deteriorates and is in Wang 2 27). In the interval, the loss of the power setting decision from the AP is lost, and the maximum transmission is supported by the UE using the allowed tH. "*Used in the second mode" is used by the client to monitor the FLR and use the power setting of the AP to determine the determined = and the maximum of the power calculated as the result of the FLRc measurement. The link transmission is set, that is, the transmission power in mode 2 is set to -mode 2_Put (kbu max{?uik, first, (32) where 4 is determined by equation (26) or (27) and ' is determined by the parties (29) and (30).
