The received power dynamic range in the victim link is a simplified power control mechanism which ensures only that a certain dRSS is not exceeded in the victim link receiver.
The “receive power dynamic range” input parameter (denoted Pcmax in Table 12) is the maximum range of the receive power that a victim link receiver can accept, in terms of the maximum receive power over the VLR’s sensitivity threshold. This means that if the trialled dRSS value exceeds (sens+Pcmax), the dRSSmax is set to the “sensitivity” + “Receive power dynamic range”. Figure 437 (a) and (b) present an example on how to set the PC off and on respectively. Figure 438 (a) and (b) illustrates the effect of the power control in the victim link for PC off and on respectively.
