ABSTRACT:
A method for determining transmission characteristics over a first communication path and a second communication path, while an amount of the signal transmitted over the first communication path couples into the second communication path. In case of excess of capacity over the first communication path and a shortage of capacity over the second communication path, the transmit power over said first communication path is decreased such that the requested service is met over both communication paths. This optimal transmit power can be determined by trying successive transmit power values until the requested service is met, e.g. by means of a dichotomy algorithm or the like. The optimal transmit power value can be computed directly as well, e.g. by making use of the transfer characteristics of the coupling path. A transceiver unit may also be used to implement the present method.
