A mobile station (MS) transmits a first data flow to a first group of base
stations with a first power offset, transmits a second data flow to a
second group of base stations, and further transmits a pilot signal. A
radio network controller (RNC) controls the power of the pilot signal
power based on reception errors of the second data flow, calculates the
first power offset based on signaled required level of the first power
offset from base stations (BTS) of the first group which calculate the
required level of the first power offset based on an occurrence of
retransmission, signals the calculated first power offset to the mobile
station.
