Methods, apparatus and systems that are directed towards a tangible wireless node-based implementation for self-adjusting a broadcast setting of a node in a wireless node network. In general, the node (such as an ID node, a master node, or container-related node) detects a broadcast modification event (such as a time-based event, an association-based event, a location-based event, and/or a sensor-based event). The node then accesses a broadcast profile stored within the node to determine an updated value for the broadcast setting of the node based upon the detected broadcast modification event. Pursuant to the broadcast profile, the updated value may, for example, be a modified RF transmission output power level setting, a modified frequency setting, and/or a timing setting that changes how the node broadcasts messages. Once the updated value is determined, the node then self-adjusts the broadcast setting from a current value to the updated value.
A wireless node-based method for self-adjusting a broadcast setting of a node in a wireless node network, comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions which when executed on a processor of a node performs a wireless node-based method for self-adjusting a broadcast setting of the node in a wireless node network, the method comprising:
A self-adjusting broadcasting node apparatus in a wireless node network, the apparatus comprising:
An enhanced self-adjusting wireless node system, comprising:
