UL closed loop power control in handover

Two types of handover


Soft (two different Node Bs) Softer (two cells of the same Node B)

Each cell issues TPC to the mobile TPC bits from the same Node B are combined one command per Node B TPC commands from different Node Bs or of the downs
In the case of conflicting commands the mobile powers down

DL closed loop power control


On the DL both inner and outer loops are at the UE UE sends one TPC command received by all Node Bs in the active set All node Bs adjust their power in the same direction Additional algorithms need to be implemented at RNC to make sure Node B powers do no drift due to erroneous UP frames
