The purpose of inner loop power control in WCDMA system is to maintain a certain signal-to-interference ratio of transmission signal power when the signals reach the receiving end. However, for different multi-path environments, even if the mean signal-tointerference ratio is kept above a certain threshold, the communication quality requirement (BER) can not always be satisfied .

UE transmit a preamble using the selected uplink access slot, signature, and preamble transmission power. - Then ,UTARN response by sending AI if the preamble is received. - Next, UE transmit the message part if the AI is received. - But, if UE does not receive the AI from UTRAN in p-p period, a next preamble will be transmitted.

Parameter
Power Offset Pp-m Constant Value PRACH Power Ramp Step Preamble Retrans Max
Parameter meaning
The power offset of the last access preamble and message control part. This value plus the access preamble power is the power of the control part This parameter is the correction constant used for the UE to estimate the initial transmission power of PRACH according to the open loop power This parameter is the ramp step of the preamble power when the UE has not received the capture indication from NodeB This parameter is the permitted maximum preamble repeat times of the UE within a preamble ramp cycle

Inner-loop power control nnerThe principle for Inner-loop power control InnerThe receivers calculate the SIR by estimating the power strength and the current interference. Then, compare this one to SIRtarget
If SIRmeasured < SIRtarget send TPC = 1 to inform receivers increase SIRtarget, its transmission power If SIRmeasured > SIRtarget send TPC = 0 to inform receivers decrease SIRtarget, transmission power
The receiver that receives the TPC will adjust the transmission power by algorithms. The inner loop power control can convergence the estimated SIR to SIR target

Inner-loop power control nnerInner-loop power control Algorithm nnerIn 3GPP protocol, two algorithms are adopted in the inner-loop power control of uplink DPCCH
PCA1 : uplink power control step is PCA2 : uplink power control step is tpc=1 tpc=1dB or 2dB tpc=1 tpc=1dB
The power offset shows the difference of transmission power of UL DPCCH and UL DPDCH The adjustment range of DPDCH is the same as the DPCCH. The power offset is decided by the signaling from higher layer

Application scenarios
When UE is moving with high speed (80Km/h), the fast inner-loop power control can not catch up with the fast fading, but will produce negative gain. In this situation, PCA2 is preferred.

Downlink inner-loop power control innerTimeslot structure of Downlink DPCH : PO3 defines the power offset of the TFCI bit in the downlink DPCCH to DPDCH. PO2 defines the power offset of the TPC bit in the downlink DPCCH to DPDCH. PO1 defines the power offset of the Pilot bit in the downlink DPCCH to DPDCH. The values of PO1 PO2 and PO3 are defined by RNC.
Inner-loop power control of downlink DPCCH include two types: - Inner-loop power control in compressed mode, - Inner-loop power control in non-compressed mode.

Downlink inner-loop power control innerFirst, UE should estimate the downlink DPDCH/DPCCH power and the current SIR Then, UE can generate TPC by comparing SIRestimated to SIRtarget
If SIRestimated > SIRtarget ; TPC = 0 (decrease power) If SIRestimated < SIRtarget ; TPC = 1 (increase power)

Downlink inner-loop power control innerPower control in different state When UE is not in soft handover
TPC generated by UE is transmitted in TPC domain of UL channel
When UE in soft handover, two power control modes can be used, which is decided by DPC_mode:
DPC_MODE DPC_MODE 0 1 UE will transmit TPC in every slot UE will transmit the same TPC in every three time slot
When the downlink channel is out of synchronization, UE will transmit TPC=1 because UE can not measure the downlink SIR Upon reception of TPC, UTRAN will adjust the downlink power of DPCCH/DPDCH. But the transmission power can not higher than Maximum_DL_Power and not less than Minimum_DL_Power neither.

The relationship between inner-loop power control and outer-loop power control
SIR target should be satisfied to be able to decoding receive signal correctly. But different radio path radio environment has different requirement on SIR Therefore, the outer-loop power control can adjust the SIR to get a stable BLER in the changeable radio environment
