US 2016/0105855 A1 · METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MANAGING TRANSMITTING POWER OF COMMUNICATIONS DEVICES EQUIPPED WITH A PLURALITY OF ANTENNAS

Abstract

A method for managing transmitting power of communications devices equipped with multiple antennas. The method enables a first antenna configuration of the plurality of antennas in accordance with a first pre-determined rule. The method transmits a first message to a peer communications device, wherein the first message comprises at least a power management profile of the communications device transmitting the first message. The method receives a second message comprising at least information pertinent to a power management profile of the peer communications device receiving the first message and signal integrity information determined by the peer communications device from the received first message. Finally, the method activates a second antenna configuration of the plurality of antennas by using the signal integrity information in accordance with a second pre-determined rule.

A method for managing transmitting power of a communications device equipped with a plurality of antennas, comprising:

enabling a first antenna configuration of the plurality of antennas in accordance with a first pre-determined rule;
transmitting a first message to a peer communications device, wherein the first message comprises a request for requesting information pertinent to a power management profile of the peer communications device receiving the first message.;
receiving a second message comprising at least information pertinent to the power management profile of the peer communications device receiving the first message and signal integrity information determined by the peer communications device from the received first message, wherein the power management profile of the peer communications device is a profile of parameter(s) used by the peer communications device;
and
activating a second antenna configuration of the plurality of antennas by using the signal integrity information in accordance with a second pre-determined rule;
wherein the communications device enabling a third antenna configuration in accordance with the first pre-determined rule after the first and second messages have been exchanged.
