Split method and apparatus determine a set of combinations of acceptable transport format.

A method for determining a set of combinations of acceptable transport format for transmission on a current time frame of a mobile station, comprising: determining a maximum power level allowed for transmission from said mobile station; characterized by the steps of: determining a value of orders increase and decrease accumulated power associated to a previous time frame from a normal sum of the orders rise and decay; determining an order of initial power control; determining a set of modified values ​​of power and acceptable transfer speed based on said maximum power level, said accumulated commands value and said power control command initial power settings; determining a set of gain factors acceptable channel based on said set of setting values ​​modified power and speed acceptable transfer and determine said set of combinations of acceptable transport format based on said set of gain factors channel acceptable.
