Abstract
Transmission power control methods and devices are described. In a transmission power control method, a triggering distance can be calculated based on one or more communication parameters. Using a proximity sensor, a proximity distance of the communication device with an external object can be calculated. The triggering distance and the proximity distance can be compared, and based on this comparison, a transmission power mode of the communication device can be determined and set.
