Abstract

Disclosed is a preamble sending method, including: acquiring a first uplink transmission gap, where the first uplink transmission gap is a time interval between initiation, by a terminal, of current uplink transmission and termination of the most recent uplink transmission; and when the first uplink transmission gap is greater than or equal to at least one time threshold in a first preset time threshold, sending a Preamble that includes a DPCCH (dedicated physical control channel) to a network side. By using the method, a network-side device located at a base station can control uplink transmission power of the terminal according to a sent DPCCH pulse.

Claims (21)

1. A method for sending a dedicated physical control channel (DPCCH), comprising:

acquiring, by a terminal, an uplink transmission gap, wherein the uplink transmission gap is a time interval between an initiation, by the terminal, of a current uplink transmission and a termination of a most recent uplink transmission; and

determining, by the terminal, whether the uplink transmission gap is less than or equal to a threshold,

wherein in response to determining that the uplink transmission gap is less than or equal to the threshold, sending, by the terminal, a DPCCH to a network-side device by using transmit power of a most recent DPCCH, and

wherein in response to determining that the uplink transmission gap is larger than the threshold, sending, by the terminal, a DPCCH to the network-side device by using transmit power that is obtained by introducing an offset based on a power of the most recent DPCCH.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the threshold is received by the terminal from the network-side device.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the threshold is preset by the terminal.

4. A terminal, comprising:

a processor, configured to acquire an uplink transmission gap, wherein the uplink transmission gap is a time interval between an initiation, by the terminal, of a current uplink transmission and a termination of a most recent uplink transmission, and determine whether the uplink transmission gap is less than or equal to a threshold; and

a transmitter, configured to, in response to the uplink transmission gap being less than or equal to a threshold, send a dedicated physical control channel (DPCCH) to a network-side device by using transmit power of a most recent DPCCH, and, in response to the uplink transmission gap being larger than the threshold, send a DPCCH to the network-side device by using transmit power that is obtained by introducing an offset based on a power of the most recent DPCCH.

5. The terminal according to claim 4 , further comprising:

a receiver configured to receive the threshold from the network-side device.

6. The terminal according to claim 4 , wherein the threshold is preset by the terminal.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable medium on which a program is stored, wherein the program, when executed by a processor, enables a terminal to perform the steps of:

acquiring an uplink transmission gap, wherein the uplink transmission gap is a time interval between an initiation, by the terminal, of a current uplink transmission and a termination of a most recent uplink transmission; and

determining whether the uplink transmission gap is less than or equal to a threshold,

wherein in response to determining that the uplink transmission gap is less than or equal to the threshold, sending a DPCCH to a network-side device by using transmit power of a most recent DPCCH, and

wherein in response to determining that the uplink transmission gap is larger than the threshold, sending a DPCCH to the network-side device by using transmit power that is obtained by introducing an offset based on a power of the most recent DPCCH.

8. The computer-readable medium according to claim 7 , wherein the steps further comprise:

receiving the threshold from the network-side device.

9. The computer-readable medium according to claim 7 , wherein the threshold is preset by the terminal.
