When the portable communication device desires to send a data transmission, a first value is selected for either a power level for the radio frequency signal or the number of transmission slots to use. Then the first value is used to select a second value for the other one of the power level and the number of transmission slots.

Each frame has a plurality of transmission slots, different numbers of which can be used to transmit data. When it is desired to transmit data a higher rate than was used previously, an attempt is made to increase the number transmission slots being used. If doing so, produces a transmission results in a specific absorption rate limit being exceeded, then the modulation and coding scheme is changed to one having a greater data coding rate. The power level and the number transmission slots then are set so that the data transmission does not exceed the specific absorption rate limit. The data is then transmitted by the portable communication device. | 09-15-2011 |
