Abstract
Briefly, a method an apparatus to control a power of a transmitter during received slot duration is provided. A power control module set the transmitter to transmit in a targeted power level base on a command received from the slot. The power control module may set an input signal to a first level and may gradually vary the level of the input signal to be substantially equal to its original level and to adjust a gain of the transmitter to transmit at the targeted power level.
Claims30
A method comprising:
- during reception of a data block, setting a transmitter to transmit at a target power level based on information received from the data block by varying an input signal level and a gain of the transmitter to control a power level of a signal transmitted by the transmitter.
An apparatus comprising:
- a step attenuator to set a first level of an input signal to a second level based on a target power value provided by a data block;
- a transmitter to transmit a signal at the target power value;
- and
- a power control module to vary the second level of the input signal to be substantially equal to the first level and to adjust a gain of the transmitter to transmit the signal at the target power level.

An apparatus comprising:
- a dipole antenna to receive a data block;
- a step attenuator to set a first level of an input signal to a second level based on a target power value provided by the data block;
- a transmitter to transmit a signal at the target power value;
- and
- a power control module to vary the second level of the input signal to be substantially equal to the first level and to adjust a gain of the transmitter to transmit the signal at the target power level.
2 more elements
An article comprising:
- a storage medium having stored thereon instructions that when executed result in:
- during reception of a data block, setting a transmitter to transmit at a target power level based on information received from the data block by varying an input signal level and a gain of the transmitter to control a power level of a signal transmitted by the transmitter.
