1. A method for controlling packet transmission power by a node in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:
- determining respective values for a number of sample data rates collected;
determining a target data rate, wherein the target data rate is a weighted average of the respective values; and
adjusting packet transmission power based on a result of a comparison of an average data rate to the target data rate.
