Abstract
The present invention provides a method implemented in a mobile unit configured to communicate with at least one base station over an uplink. The method includes receiving, at the mobile unit and from the base station, a first attribute indicative of a traffic-to-pilot power ratio and a second attribute indicative of a resource provision limit. The first attribute is formed based on a priority weight associated with best effort communication with the mobile unit. The second attribute is formed based on a maximum throughput associated with best effort communication with the mobile unit. The method also includes modifying an uplink transmission power based upon the first attribute and information indicative of congestion at the base station.
