SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING TRANSMIT POWER ON MULTI-SIM DEVICES IN COMPLIANCE WITH SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE LIMITS

摘要

Methods and devices are disclosed for control total transmit power within specific absorption rate (SAR) limits when a multi-SIM wireless device, such as a dual-SIM dual active (DSDA) device, has two active data communications. Embodiment methods include determining a priority of at least one of two active data communications based upon a measured condition of the wireless device, and reducing transmit power on one of the two RF resources supporting one of the two active data communications with lower priority. To identify a higher or lower priority active data communication, characteristics of the communications or data may be used.
