Abstract
A wireless communications system includes access networks and access terminals. Within each cell or cell sector, reverse links and forward links are defined between an access network and multiple access terminals in the cell or cell sector. Based on a reverse data rate threshold value calculated from noise measurements, the access network indicates to access terminals within its cell or cell sector whether activity on reverse links are to be increased or decreased.
