A method of controlling initial power ramp-up in CDMA systems by using short codes

摘要

The method involves transmitting a periodic signal from a subscriber unit at an initial predetermined power level. The power level is increased at a predetermined ramp up rate. The periodic signal is detected at a base station when a sufficient power for detection is achieved. A signal from the base station is transmitted which confirms the periodic signal has been detected. The confirmation signal is received at the subscriber unit. The predetermined power level ramp up rate is stopped when the confirmation signal is received. The initial predetermined power level is lower than the power level required for detection by the base station. The power level of the signal is increased at a second predetermined rate which is less than the first rate.
