Power control of neighbor discovery signals

A processor configured to execute computer instructions to cause a system to perform operations for adjusting power of a neighbor discovery signal, the operations comprising:

• determining a maximum transmission power of a transmitting wireless device configured to transmit a neighbor discovery signal to one or more receiving wireless devices configured to receive the neighbor discovery signal, the one or more receiving wireless devices being discovered neighbor wireless devices of the transmitting wireless device;
• and
• determining a power level of the neighbor discovery signal based on the maximum transmission power of the transmitting wireless device and a number of the discovered neighbor wireless devices.

A method of transmitting a neighbor discovery signal, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a transmitting wireless device, a power level of a neighbor discovery signal, the transmitting wireless device configured to transmit a neighbor discovery signal to one or more receiving wireless devices configured to receive the neighbor discovery signal, the one or more receiving wireless devices being discovered neighbor wireless devices of the transmitting wireless device, and the power level of the neighbor discovery signal being based on a maximum transmission power of the transmitting wireless device and a number of the discovered neighbor wireless devices;
• and
• transmitting the neighbor discovery signal at the received power level.
