Abstract :
Improved power control methods of transport format combination indicator (TFCI) field in hard split mode, where the TFCI power is flexibly adjusted to guarantee the reliability of TFCI transmission and the efficiency of its power usage are presented. Simulation results show that in the hard split mode the proposed methods provide a flexible TFCI power allocation.
