Abstract
Wireless communications systems and methods related to video telephony are provided. A device may proactively reduce the bitrate at which video is encoded at the beginning of a video call based on one or more radio metrics. Radio metrics used may include received signal strength indicator (RSSI), received signal received quality (RSRQ), received signal received power (RSRP), signal to noise ratio (SNR), power headroom (PHR), and block error rate (BER). The proactive reduction in bitrate is done prior to transmitting or receiving video data. The device may also request that a second device which is transmitting video do so at a reduced bitrate.
