Abstract
A method and apparatus for controlling interference in a wireless communication system includes a first step of performinga handoff measurement of a signal parameter for a current site and for nearby sites, and performinga comparison of the signal parameters to select the nearby site having the strongest signal parameter. A next stepincludes defining a target maximum allowable noise rise for the selected nearby site. A next stepincludes calculating an upper bound for at least one operating parameter in the current site. A next stepincludes determining whether a maximum for the at least one operating parameter exceedsthe upper bound. A next stepincludes constraining the at least one operating parameter to no more than the upper bound if the maximum for the at least one operating parameter exceeds the upper bound.
