Abstract
The technology disclosed herein enhances the operation of a wireless access node to dynamically provide transmit power based on Reference Signal Receive Power (RSRP). In one implementation, a method of operating a wireless access node includes transmitting first signals with wireless communication devices using a first transmit power, and identifying RSRP values for the wireless communication devices. The method further includes identifying distances between the wireless access node and each wireless communication device, normalizing the RSRP values based on the distances, identifying a target RSRP based on the normalized RSRP values, and determining a second transmit power based on the target RSRP. The method further provides transmitting second signals to the wireless communication devices using the second transmit power.
