Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device (WCD) may communicate, via a wireless link, with an audio device using a first configuration having first values for communication parameters. The WCD may transmit an indication to switch to a second configuration based at least in part on a configuration switch trigger, the configuration switch trigger being based at least in part on one or more of a link quality metric associated with the wireless link or a change of a use state of the WCD, and the second configuration having second values for the communication parameters associated with a reduction in voltage-induced interference in an audio output of the audio device. Numerous other aspects are described.

Aspects relate to transmission control. In some examples, a first apparatus (e.g., a wireless communication device) may output a first packet for transmission to a second apparatus. Subsequently, the first apparatus may suspend a second packet from being output for transmission to the second apparatus. In some examples, the suspension of the second packet may be based on a first voltage level of a power source being less than or equal to a first threshold (e.g., due to the transmission of the first packet).

Power source based transmission control

Methods and apparatuses are described in which dynamic voltage and frequency scaling may be used to save power when processing packets in a wireless communications device. In some cases, inframe detection may allow the device to determine whether to transition from a first (e.g., lower) voltage level to a second (e.g., higher) voltage level to process one or more packets of a received frame. For some packet types the first voltage level may be maintained. In other cases, the device may determine a bandwidth to use from among multiple bandwidths supported by the device. The bandwidth may be determined based on channel conditions. A voltage level may be identified that corresponds to the determined bandwidth and a processing voltage may be scaled to the identified voltage level. The device may be configured to operate in wireless local area network (WLAN) and/or in a cellular network (e.g., LTE).
