Millimeter Wave Exposure Control During Voice Calls

Abstract:

Aspects include systems, methods, devices, and non-transitory processor readable storage mediums for reducing excessive millimeter wave (mmW) radio frequency (RF) exposure to a user of a wireless device. Various aspects may enable an RF exposure condition for the wireless device to be detected while the wireless device is operating in a mmW mode during a voice. In some aspects, a mmW carrier quality report may be adjusted to deprioritize mmW in response to determining the RF exposure condition for the wireless device is occurring during the voice call.
