ABSTRACT:
A system and method for medium access control (MAC) protocol which controls transmissions in wireless devices to at least substantially comply with specific absorption rate (SAR) limits. The system and method of MAC protocol uses “source-based” time averaging measurements of transmitter “on-times” and an integral of transmission power to direct transmitter duty-cycle such that SAR limits are met. The system and method monitors and controls topology-dependent functions of a node transceiver, including transceiver duty cycle, transceiver transmit power levels and transceiver power-time products, using a automatic transmission control protocol (ATP) to vary functions to maintain specific absorption rate (SAR) limits for handheld and portable devices which are used close to human bodies. In cases in which SAR limits are approached, the ATP can direct the transceiver at the device to adjust each function, or combination of functions, to maintain an acceptable SAR limit.
