Abstract
Embodiments provide apparatus, methods, and computer readable mediums with programming instructions that enable determinations of specific absorption rates relative to a threshold. In response, a device may alternate use of the first transceiver and the second transceiver to cooperatively transmit an amount of data and reduce the specific absorption rate.
Claims18
A computing system, comprising:
- a first antenna and a second antenna;
- a first transceiver coupled to the first antenna and a second transceiver coupled to the second antenna, wherein the first transceiver and the second transceiver are to cooperatively transmit an amount of data and
- a controller coupled to the first transceiver and the second transceiver to determine that a specific absorption rate is above a threshold, and in response, alternate use of the first transceiver and the second transceiver to cooperatively transmit the amount of data and reduce the specific absorption rate.
A method, comprising:
- simultaneously transmitting, by a client device, an amount of data via a first antenna and a second antenna;
- determining, by the client device, that a specific absorption rate is above a predetermined threshold;
- generating, by the client device, a duty cycle to alternate power between the first antenna and the second antenna to transmit the amount of data, wherein the duty cycle reduces the specific absorption rate below the predetermined threshold.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising a plurality of programming instructions, which if executed by a controller of the client device, cause the client device to:
- determine a location of a user relative to the client device;
- determine a specific absorption rate of data transmissions in response to the location of the user relative to the client device;
- and
- adjust power of a first antenna and a second antenna to reduce the specific absorption rate of the data transmissions.
