Abstract
System and methods for the dynamic readjustment of power are provided. In one embodiment a communications system comprises a base station including one or more radio head interface modules and a signal processing module, the radio head interface modules adapted to communicate with the signal processing module. The signal processing module performs modulation and demodulation of voice and data streams using one or more air interface protocols. The system further comprises a radio head unit coupled to the radio head interface modules over one or more transport mediums. The radio head unit communicates with one or more subscriber units using the air interface protocols. The radio head interface modules receive power level adjustment parameters from the signal processing module for one or more logical channels. The one or more radio head interface modules reconfigure a signal gain of one or more communications channels based on the power level adjustment parameters.
