25.2243GPPPhysical layer procedures (TDD)TS
Uplink power control is based on a quality target, set by higher layers. An example implementation for a Node B TPC calculation algorithm is SIR based. In this algorithm, an outer loop sets a target SIR value, SIRtarget, which may be adjusted from time to time in order to ensure that the quality target is met. In the meantime, as part of an inner loop a calculation of SIR in associated uplink transmissions may be carried out. When the measured value is higher than the target SIR value, TPC command = "down". When the measurement is lower than or equal to the target SIR, TPC command = "up".
