Dynamic management of interference and coverage in wireless communications
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for optimizing transmission power levels for wireless communications. Dynamic uplink power control of wireless device transmissions may be controlled. Conditions in a source cell and neighboring cells may be monitored and uplink transmission power levels may be dynamically adjusted based on those conditions. Transmission power levels may be increased or decreased gradually, and conditions of source cell and neighboring cells may be monitored to determine optimized power levels.
