Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011054374A1] There is proposed a mechanism for setting power control settings for uplink power control in a network element controlling a communication connection to and from a user equipment, such as a base station or an eNodeB controlling a so-called femto cell (HeNB). The power control parameters of a HeNB are adjusted according to the position of the femto cell with respect to the served area of the "umbrella" Macro eNB. The HeNB may adjust the parameters autonomously, e.g. based on own measurements of the surrounding macro eNB, wherein path loss measurements, power control parameters and further parameters, such as a power margin and/or a worst case path-loss, provided by the network are considered. The HeNB adjusts the power control related parameters such that no UE connected to it transmits with more than a predetermined maximum power.
