Abstract
The disclosure describes a method and system for dynamically adjusting the output power level in each channel of a multichannel mobile cellular to satellite telecommunication system, the power levels of the voice and data channels being preset to appropriate initial output power levels, the initial power level for data channels being higher than the initial power level for voice channels. The method includes receiving a call request from communication equipment on one of the plurality of channels; determining whether the call is a voice call or a data call, determining whether a transmission channel is available for the call; assigning the call to an available voice or data transmission channel; looking up pre-stored power parameters for each active transmission channel; transmitting the parameters to each active transmission channel via a message; and dynamically adjusting the output power of each active transmission channel in response to the transmitted parameters.
