System and method for a modular dynamic wireless power control system in a convertible information handling system
First Claim
1. A convertible information handling system comprising:
- a wireless adapter for communicating on an antenna system;
a processor executing code instructions for a modular dynamic wireless power control system for detecting an active wireless link operating via a first antenna system and a first orientation mode, wherein the transmission power of the first antenna system is limited to a regulatory safety maximum depending on orientation;
the processor determining the permitted regulatory safety maximum transmission power for the first orientation mode for the information handling system;
the processor determining relative transmission activity levels for the information handling system relative to the first active wireless link and the second active wireless link, including a first wireless link data rate transmission level for the first antenna system and a second wireless link data rate transmission level for a second antenna system; and
the modular dynamic wireless power control system instructing the wireless interface adapter controller to increase transmission power to the first antenna and decrease transmission power to the second antenna relative to the regulatory safety maximum power level when the first wireless link data rate transmission level is greater than the second wireless link data rate transmission level.
