DTX: Discontinuous Transmission
Shut off the transmission at voice intervals;
Only transmit SID frames
The transcoder at the RX terminal produces comfortable noise.
VAD: Voice Activity Detection

Implemented by the transcoder.
Prolong battery life and

reduce interference
Power Control
Prolong battery life
Reduce network interference
Include both uplink power control and downlink power control
Level and quality are taken into account
BSC or BTS is the final adjudicator
Signal level
Target level value:

BCCH Carrier is not e.g. -85 dm
involved in power control.
