Intelligent control of the transmission power in cellular phones using fuzzy logic

In this paper is proposed a proposed control system for optimising the transmission power in cellular phones. As the mobile station moves toward the edge of a cell, the cell´s base station notes that the signal strength is diminishing. Meanwhile, the base station in the cell the mobile station is moving toward (which is listening and measuring signal strength on all frequencies, not just its own one) sees the phone´s signal strength increasing. The two base stations coordinate with each other, and at some point, the phone gets a signal on a control channel telling it to change frequencies. This hand off switches the phone to a different cell, which receives the signal with a bigger intensity, so the next decrement of the transmission power will be the lower possible without risking the quality of the transmission. Nowadays the central cellular controls the transmission power on the mobile station, on intervals of 4 dbs to increase or decrease it, so the final power always is above or under the required power.
