FIELD: information technologies.
SUBSTANCE: methods are described to execute capacity control during operation in discontinuous transmission mode (DTX). UE sends along the upperlink during a transmission packet and receives TPC commands generated by the unit B on the basis of the upperlink transmission. UE may accept two TPC commands in the end of the transmission packet, which are not used during the transmission packet. UE preserves and saves these two TPC commands for subsequent transmission packet. In one version UE uses each preserved TPC command in one segment of the next transmission packet. In the other version UE combines two preserved TPC commands and applies combined value in the first two segments of the following transmission packet. In another version UE selects one of the preserved TPC commands and applies the selected TPC command in the first two segments of the following transmission packet.
EFFECT: efficient control of capacity in DTX mode.
