System that adapts power for minimizing the total amount of transmitted power within a wireless communications network and related method

A system that adapts power for minimizing the total amount of transmitted power within a wireless communications network comprising:

• a transmit station that transmits a communications signal requesting a response from mobile stations;
• a plurality of mobile stations that receive the communications signal from the transmit station, wherein each mobile station evaluates its signal reception and responds to the communications signal by transmitting a communications signal back to the transmit station in a specific time slot as a function of its signal reception to allow the transmit station to adapt its power output based on the time slots of the communications signals, wherein if all mobile stations have received the communications signal at a signal level above a threshold, no response will be transmitted by mobile stations and the transmit station will transmit at its lowest power level allowing reception to all mobile stations to minimize the total amount of power transmitted within the wireless communications network.
