Systems and techniques herein provide for determining the transmission power for a mobile device. In particular, techniques herein automatically set the transmission power of a radio so as to minimize the detectability of the transmitter (that is, by minimizing the radio signature of the communication), and consequently to also minimize the necessary transmission power. In addition, the reduction in transmission power prolongs the life of the battery, or similarly, facilitates using smaller and lighter batteries. In one embodiment, satellite communication in the presence of an adversary comprises evaluating multiple communication satellites in order to select the specific satellite that provides a communication path with minimal exposure of the communications to the adversary. The transmission power of the mobile device may then be set to ensure proper communication to the specific satellite while minimizing the power received by the adversary (or a potential adversary).
