Dynamic power class re-registration of mobile devices

A user equipment, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
• in response to an absorption rate associated with the user equipment being determined to satisfy a defined condition representing that radio frequency energy that has been emitted by the user equipment has exceeded a defined absorption rate, determining whether a period of a gap in data being exchanged between network equipment and the user equipment exists;
• in response to the period of the gap in the data being determined to exist, sending, during the period of the gap in the data, power class registration data representing a change of a power class registration of the user equipment directed to the network equipment to facilitate a reduction of the absorption rate;
• in response to the period of the gap in the data being determined not to exist, determining whether a timer that began counting in response to creation of the change of the power class registration has expired;
• in response to the timer being determined to have expired, sending the power class registration data directed to the network equipment;
• in response to the sending of the power class registration data, determining whether an instruction for the change of the power class registration of the user equipment has been received during a defined period;
• and
• in response to the instruction for the change of the power class registration being determined not to have been received during the defined period, reducing a power of the user equipment to facilitate the reduction of the absorption rate associated with the user equipment.

A non-transitory machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor of an apparatus, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:

• in response to determining that an absorption rate associated with the apparatus satisfies a defined condition with respect to radio frequency energy emitted by the apparatus, identifying whether data being exchanged between network equipment and the apparatus comprises a gap during which the data has not been exchanged between the network equipment and the apparatus;
• in response to the data being exchanged between the network equipment and the apparatus being determined to comprise the gap,
• generating power class registration data representing a change of a power class registration of the apparatus to facilitate a reduction of the absorption rate, and
• sending the power class registration data directed to the network equipment during the gap;
• and
• in response to the data being exchanged between the network equipment and the apparatus being determined not to comprise the gap, determining whether a timer has run out after being started in response to the generating of the power class registration data;
• in response to the timer being determined to have run out, sending the power class registration data directed to the network equipment;
• in response to the sending of the power class registration data, determining whether an instruction for the change of the power class registration of the apparatus has been received during a defined period of time;
• and
• in response to the instruction for the change of the power class registration being determined not to have been received during the defined period of time, reducing a power of the apparatus to facilitate the reduction of the absorption rate associated with the apparatus.
