Abstract
Abstract A power controller apparatus for use in a mobile radio system wherein, when an error is detected in a transmitted signal, the transmit power is increased and when no error is detected, the transmit power is reduced by a smaller amount thus maintaining a constant bit error rate related to the ratio of the up and down step sizes. The power controller also contains a comparator for comparing the data which is transmitted with the data which has been transmitted to a station and retransmitted back.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
192 words
A power controller apparatus for use in a mobile radio system comprising: first and second stations, said first station transmitting data to and receiving data from said second station and said second station receiving data from and transmitting data to said first station; said first station comprising: a data source; a means connected to said data source for modulating data to be emitted by said data source; a means for transmitting data emitted by said data source, having a transmitting power; and a control means for controlling said transmitting power of the transmitting means dependent on data which is transmitted from said first station to said second station, and retransmitted back to said first station, said control means comprising a comparison means having a first input which receives the data from said data source and a second input connected to the data retransmitted from said second station, and wherein said comparison means generates an output signal for controlling a switching means which is arranged to provide an input signal to an accumulator, the accumulator having an output which is connected to a means for adjusting the transmission power of the first station.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
192 words
A power controller apparatus for use in a mobile radio system comprising: first and second stations, said first station transmitting data to and receiving data from said second station and said second station receiving data from and transmitting data to said first station; said first station comprising: a data source; a means connected to said data source for modulating data to be emitted by said data source; a means for transmitting data emitted by said data source, having a transmitting power; and a control means for controlling said transmitting power of the transmitting means dependent on data which is transmitted from said first station to said second station, and retransmitted back to said first station, said control means comprising a comparison means having a first input which receives the data from said data source and a second input connected to the data retransmitted from said second station, and wherein said comparison means generates an output signal for controlling a switching means which is arranged to provide an input signal to an accumulator, the accumulator having an output which is connected to a means for adjusting the transmission power of the first station.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
79 words
The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the comparison means is an exclusive OR gate performing a comparison of the first and second inputs, and if the input bits at the first and second inputs are equal, then the output will be low and the accumulator will be fed with a down-step signal, and if the input bits are different, the output of the OR gate will be high and the accumulator input will be fed with an up-step signal.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
34 words
The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the second station further comprises a means for receiving data, means for modulating the received data, and means for transmitting the modulated data back to the first station.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
63 words
The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the first station is arranged to detect a burst of errors in data reflected back from said second station, and wherein detection of the burst of errors indicates that a carrier reference has become inverted and said first station further comprises a means inverting the data if it is transmitting to compensate for the burst of errors.
