Granular adjustment of antenna power in multi-radio systems

Abstract:

Multi-radio wireless network devices are capable of transmitting and/or receiving data from multiple radiofrequency (RF) networks at different bands. Total transmission power limitations may be in place due to, for example, safety reasons. As a result, active management of transmission power may be performed during simultaneous transmission in different bands and/or networks. In some embodiments, the management may take place on group-by-group basis and a network-by-network basis. Antennas may be grouped based on their relative positions and impact on radiation emitted by the devices.
