Abstract

Transmitter power control has proven to be an efficient method tocontrol cochannel interference in cellular PCS, and to increase bandwidthutilization. Power control can also improve channel quality, lower the powerconsumption, and facilitate network management functions such as mobileremovals, hand-off and admission control. Most of the previous studies haveassumed that the transmitter power level is controlled in a continuousdomain, whereas in digitally power controlled systems, power levels arediscrete. In this paper we study the transmitter power control problem usingonly a finite set of discrete power levels.The optimal discrete powervector is characterized, and a Distributed Discrete Power Control (DDPC)algorithm which converges to it, is presented. The impact of the power levelgrid on the outage probability is also investigated. A microcellular casestudy is used to evaluate the outage probabilities of the algorithms.
