Real-time radio self-calibration

A system comprising:

• a memory storage;
• and
• a processing unit coupled to the memory storage, wherein the processing unit is operative to:
• for one or more clients of a radio:
• sample a Transmission (TX) signal;
• determine an achievable Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) for one or more frames based on the TX signal;
• determine a link budget using a TX power and a supported Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS);
• and
• adjust a per packet TX power based on the achievable EVM and a TX retry rate.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium that stores a set of instructions which when executed perform a method executed by the set of instructions comprising:

• for one or more clients of a radio:
• sampling a Transmission (TX) signal;
• determining an achievable Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) for one or more frames based on the TX signal;
• determining a link budget using a TX power and a supported Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS);
• and
• adjusting a per packet TX power based on the achievable EVM and a TX retry rate.
