CONTROLLING ACCESS POINT TRANSMIT POWER BASED ON EVENT-TRIGGERED ACCESS TERMINAL MESSAGING

摘要

Transmit power for an access point is controlled based on measurement reports received by the access point from one or more access terminals that are not currently being served by the access point. In some aspects, transmit power is controlled based on the number of received messages that correspond to a particular event. In some aspects, transmit power is controlled based on the contents of the received messages. For example, the access point may use signal strength information included in the messages to determine a level of transmit power that mitigates interference at a defined subset of reporting access terminals.
