Abstract
Communication device may include a transmitter and a receiver respectively coupled to one or more antennas to communicate (e.g., transmit or receive signals) with a base station. The communication device may receive an operating characteristic of a cellular modem within the communication device operating in a first cellular configuration and determine if the operating characteristic are greater than a threshold. The operating characteristic may include power and/or temperature. The threshold may include a power budget and/or a temperature threshold. If the operating characteristic is greater than the threshold, then the communication device may determine a control effort value based on the operating characteristic and the threshold. The communication device may map the control effort value to a second cellular configuration, which may correspond to reduced operating characteristics in comparison to the first cellular configuration. The communication device may then cause the cellular modem to operate in the second cellular configuration.
