          Appeal No. 2002-2106                                                        
          Application 09/313,359                                                      



          base station an individual target value from which the trans-               
          mitted power level should not deviate on a long-term average.               
          See page 2 of Appellants’ specification.  Fig. 2a shows the                 
          structure of a mobile communications system according to the                
          invention.  The mobile communications system contains a number of           
          base stations of which only two, NB1 and NB2, are shown.  These             
          two base stations NB1 and NB2 are interconnected by a control               
          network and communicate simultaneously with a mobile station UE.            
          See page 4 of Appellants’ specification.  Each of the two base              
          stations NB1 and NB2 changes its transmitted power using the                
          method according to the invention, in which target values TV1 and           
          TV2 are preset by the first base station controller SRNC for base           
          stations NB1 and NB2, respectively.  See page 5 of Appellants’              
          specification.  Fig. 3 is a flowchart showing the steps of a                
          method 100 for changing the transmitted power of a base station.            
          In the first step 110, the base station controller SRNC presets             
          a target value TV1 for the base station NB1.  See page 6 of                 
          Appellants’ specification.  In step 120, a transmit power command           
          is transmitted from the mobile station UE to the two base                   
          stations NB1 and NB2.  In step 130, the transmitted power is                



                                          3
