ABSTRACT:
A communications network including first and second stations, the first station comprising a transmitter and the second station comprising a receiver. The network further including a transition control portion which is operable, prior to a change in a transmission rate of a preselected signal from the first station to the second station, to cause transitional signals to be transmitted from the first station to the second station over the course of a transitional period expiring before the change is effected. The power levels of the transitional signals are varied over the course of the period in such a way as to reduce a level of instability in the network. In another embodiment probing signals are transmitted prior to making such a rate change to probe a likely relationship between the transmission rate and transmission power after the change is effected.
