According to the proposed method, the frequency of power control commands transmitted on a power control channel is changed according to the traffic. When the traffic becomes slower in at least one direction due to a DTX state, a slower transfer rate, asymmetric data transfer or for any other reason, the frequency of power control commands is lowered. Both the base station and the personal station may lower the frequency of the commands which they send. An alternative to changing the frequency of power control commands is to change the energy of power control bits. The duration of power control bits must hereby be extended, if a standard bit error ration is desired. If the system is frequency-divided and/or time-divided and uses frequency control command of several bits, the length of the command word may be shortened in addition to or as an alternative to the change in frequency. The power control algorithm may be changed several times during a traffic connection.

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of controlling the transmission power used in a digital radio link in a system where a base station and a personal station are parties to a radio connection and during operation between the base station and the personal station, either party sends a power control command, which changes the transmission power of the other party, the method comprising: identifying a change in data transfer of the first party by the second party; and in response to the change in the data transfer, changing a manner in which the power control commands are to be sent to the first party by the second party to be in accordance with the data transfer, where when the data transfer relates to a decreased transmission rate of the first party, the second party lowers an energy of power control commands to be sent to the first party and, correspondingly, when the data transfer relates to an increased transmission rate of the first party, the second party increases the energy of power control commands. 2. The method as defined in claim 1, wherein the change in the data transfer of the first party is declared in a field of a transmission frame reserved for this purpose. 3. The method as defined in claim 1, wherein the change in the data transfer of the first party is declared by changing a structure of a transmission frame directly to correspond with the data transfer. 4. The method as defined in claim 1, wherein when the Manner in which the power control commands are to be sent changes, a size of a power control step of a transmitter is also changed. 5. A base station for operation in a digital radio link in a system where a base station and a personal station are parties to a radio connection and during operation the base station is configured to control the transmission power of the personal station by sending a power control command, wherein the base station is configured to: identify a change in data transfer of the personal station and change, in response to the change in the data transfer, the manner in which the power control commands are to be sent to the personal station to be in accordance with the data transfer, wherein when the data transfer relates to a decreased transmission rate of the personal station, the base station is configured to lower an energy of power control commands to be sent to the personal station and, correspondingly, when the data transfer relates to an increased transmission rate of the personal station, the base station is configured to increase the energy of power control commands. 6. A personal station for operation in a digital radio link in a system where a base station and a personal station are parties to a radio connection and during operation the personal station is configured to control the transmission power of the base station by sending a power control command, wherein the personal station is configured to: identify a change in data transfer of the base station and change, in response to the change in the data transfer, the manner in which the power control commands are to be sent to the base station to be in accordance with the data transfer, wherein when the data transfer relates to a decreased transmission rate of the base station, the personal station is configured to lower an energy of power control commands to be sent to the base station and, correspondingly, when the data transfer relates to an increased transmission rate of the base station, the personal station is configured to increase the energy of power control commands. 7. A method, comprising: identifying a change in a data transfer of a first party by the second party, wherein either the first party is a base station and the second part is a personal station connected to the base station or the first party is the personal station and the second party is the base station; and in response to the change in the data transfer, changing a manner in which the power control commands are to be sent to the first party by the second party to be in accordance with the data transfer, wherein when the data transfer relates to a decreased transmission rate of the first party, the second party lowers an energy of power control commands to be sent to the first party and, correspondingly, when the data transfer relates to an increased transmission rate of the first party, the second party increases the energy of power control commands. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the change in the data transfer of the first party is declared in a field of a transmission frame reserved for this purpose. 9. The method of claim 7, wherein the change in the data transfer of the first party is declared by changing a structure of a transmission frame directly to correspond with the data transfer. 10. The method of claim 7, wherein when the manner in which the power control commands are to be sent changes, a size of a power control step of a transmitter is also changed. 11. An apparatus comprising: at least one memory including computer program code; and at least one processor, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to identify a change in data transfer of the first party by the second party, wherein either the first party is a base station and the second part is a personal station connected to the base station or the first party is the personal station and the second party is the base station, and in response to the change in the data transfer, change a manner in which the power control commands are to be sent to the first party by the second party to be in accordance with the data transfer, wherein when the data transfer relates to a decreased transmission rate of the first party, the second party is configured to lower an energy of power control commands to be sent to the first party and, correspondingly, when the data transfer relates to an increased transmission rate of the first party, the second party is configured to increase the energy of power control commands. 12.
