Patent Images
1. A communication system comprising;
- at least one base station;
at least one node in communication with the at least one base station;
a sensor integrated with each of the at least one node, wherein the sensor collects data that includes at least the amount of combustible material proximate to the at least one node; and
a control unit integrated with each of the at least one node, wherein the control unit configures the transmission power of each of the at least one node based upon the data collected by the sensor.

Abstract
A system (10) and method (50) for controlling the transmission power of a node (14) that includes at least one base station (12), at least one node (14), a sensor (16), and a control unit (20). The node (14) is in communication with the base station (12). The sensor (16) is integrated with each of the nodes (14), wherein the sensor (16) collects data that includes at least the amount of combustible material (18) proximate to the node (14). The control unit (20) is integrated with each node (14) and configures the transmission power of each of the nodes (14) based upon the data collected by the sensor (16).
