As it can be seen in Figure 3, the surface is raised for rxlev > 14 and rxqual < 5.

The
uplink for MSs in this area is down regulated. The level of the down regulation is shown
on the z-axis.

Note that rxqual and rxlev in Figure 3 corresponds to the measured values collected from
the Measurement Report before any compensation has been done.

The static behaviour is calculated by assuming an initial down regulation of zero and that
the pathloss to the BTS is constant. Then, for a certain value of initial RxLev and RxQual
(a point in the x-y plane), the down regulation (z-value) settles after some iterations.
Repeating the calculations over the entire x-y plane produces the graphs above.

For the recommended setting (note that these values are based on
assumptions/simulations and have not been live tested), SSDESUL and QDESUL are set
to -92 and 30 respectively. These two values define the point (marked 1 in Figure 3) on
the two dimensional plane (quality vs signal strength plane) where the two separate
planes (marked 2 and 3 in Figure 3) of the algorithm meet. Plane 2 regulates the MSs
towards the noise floor (low signal strength) and plane 3 towards quality. The position of
these planes in the three dimensional plot is determined by SSDESUL and QDESUL, or
SSDESULAFR and QDESULAFR, or SSDESULAHR and QDESULAHR for AMR Power
Control (see Section 3.6) or SSDESULAWB and QDESULAWB for AMR-WB Power
Control see Section 3.6.4 Note that Figure 3 shows the down regulation without the
truncation of the power order, to illustrate the two different algorithms (planes).

The parameters QCOMPUL and LCOMPUL decide about the angles of plane 3 towards
the two dimensional plane (quality vs signal strength). QCOMPUL sets the angle along
the QDESUL or QDESULAFR or QDESULAHR or QDESULAWB-value and LCOMPUL
along the SSDESUL or SSDESULAFR or SSDESULAHR or SSDESULAWB-value. The
angles of plane 2 are fixed (see Section 3.2.4).
