Abstract
In some implementations of the present invention, improvement of connection quality and reduction of dropped connection rate are achieved by suspending the transmission of High Speed Dedicated Physical Control Channel (HS-DPCCH) data when a wireless terminal detects a power limiting mode during multi-radio access bearer (MRAB) connections and voice RAB is present, and correspondingly increasing uplink transmission power to voice and signaling data channels. In some implementations, the suspension of HS-DPCCH data can be complete or partial. When fully suspended, no data is sent on the HS-DPCCH. When partially suspended, no channel quality indicator (CQI) is transmitted. In both partial and full suspension schemes, the CQI transmission is suspended until the terminal detects that entry conditions to this state has been terminated.
