Abstract
The invention provides a power control methodology that increases the performance and the throughput of wireless communication systems. In particular, the invention provides a reverse jamming prevention process that efficiently utilizes power resources in a communication system such as CDMA. The invention advantageously prevents reverse jamming due to link imbalance that results from differences in forward and reverse link coverage. According to the invention, an evaluation set (e-set), which is a super set of the active set of base transceiver stations serving specific users, is determined to prevent the negative effects of reverse jamming. Excessive interference problems in the reverse link, particularly in high-speed wireless systems, are thus avoided.
