Methods for performing power management of a multi-interface transponder (MIT) device, e.g., such as positional tag device. The MIT device may transition between various power states, e.g., based on detected events, such as detecting movement of the MIT device, receiving a wakeup signal, receiving an indication of a transition in transportation mode, and/or detecting that the MIT device may be lost, such as based on a lack of contact with another device for more than a threshold period of time.

A user equipment (UE), such as a mobile phone, may support multiple power classes. Power classes can define maximum output power levels for uplink transmissions. A base station of a radio access network (RAN) can, based on metrics reported by the UE, dynamically instruct the UE to switch to using a different power class. For example, the base station may instruct the UE to switch from using a first power class with a higher maximum output power to using a second power class with a lower maximum output power, in order to preserve battery life of the UE in situations in which the second power class provides sufficient output power for uplink transmissions to reach the base station.

A user equipment (UE) determines a transmission power for data transmission to a network. The UE determines a specific absorption rate (SAR) limit associated with the UE and determines a transmission power to be allocated to data transmissions based on one or more applications running on the UE and the SAR limit.

Presented herein are techniques for using mobile client density to compensate for variations in path loss between neighboring access points. In one example, a device (e.g., wireless controller) determines one or more mobile client density variation trends in a wireless network location and determines one or more neighbor message power variation trends between at least first and second access points within the wireless network location over a time period. The device generates one or more correlation bias factors using the mobile client density variation trends and the neighbor message power variation trends over the time period. The device determines a path loss between at least the first and second access points based on the correlation bias factor and data associated with neighbor messages sent between the first and second access points.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for adjusting the transmission power of an unmanned aerial vehicle are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of determining, by an unmanned aerial vehicle that includes a radio transceiver, an altitude of the unmanned aerial vehicle and a distance between the unmanned aerial vehicle and a base station. The actions further include, based on the altitude of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the distance between the unmanned aerial vehicle and the base station, determining, by an unmanned aerial vehicle, a transmission power level for the radio transceiver. The actions further include communicating, by the unmanned aerial vehicle, with the base station using the radio transceiver operating at the transmission power level.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine sidelink channel transmit power for a communication based at least in part on a value of a cast type indicator field identifying whether the communication is a unicast type of communication or a non-unicast type of communication, wherein a sidelink pathloss parameter is configured for the communication. The UE may transmit the communication using the determined sidelink channel transmit power. Numerous other aspects are described.

Dynamic data rate selection in wireless networks is described. The includes sending, by a wireless controller to a base station, an access point power-data rate table. The base station updates a base station power-data rate table with the access point power-data rate table based on checking defined thresholds, confirms the validity of the updated base station power-data rate table by receiving measurements from a user device responsive to communications using the updated base station power-data rate table, reverts to a previous base station power-data rate table if the measurements indicate that the updated base station power-data rate table is not correct, and sends to the wireless controller one of the updated base station power-data rate table or the previous base station power-data rate table. The wireless controller updates the access point power-data rate table and sends the updated access point power-data rate table to an access point.

This disclosure presents methods and devices that implement dynamic transmit power control techniques in terminal devices with multiple radio frequency (RF) transmitters and/or in a multi-terminal device environment to comply with regulatory RF exposure limits and standards while enhancing device performance. For example, the present disclosure provides a device including a processor configured to monitor a transmit power for each of a plurality of transmitters; determine a transmit power reduction to be applied to the plurality of transmitters based on a total simultaneous transmit power of the plurality of transmitters exceeding a threshold; define a respective amount of the transmit power reduction to be applied to each transmitter of the plurality of transmitters based on one or more parameters; and apply the respective amount of the transmit power reduction to each transmitter of the plurality of transmitters.

Methods and systems for wireless communication are described. A computing device may receive data via a network. The computing device may modify one or more settings associated with a network based on the data.

Aspects relate to using less than all of an allocation for sending information. For example, a first device such as a user equipment (UE) may receive a grant from a second device such as a base station (e.g., a gNB) where the grant identifies resources and/or a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) allocated to the first device for a transmission. Due to one or more factors, the first device may elect to not use all of the allocated resources and/or may elect to use a lower MCS value. In some implementations, the first device may send an indication of this election to the second device. In some implementations, the first device may send information in a first subset of the allocated resources and apply puncturing to a second subset of the allocated resource.
