ABSTRACT:
A wireless local area network (10) including a plurality of stations (12) utilizes dynamic transmit power level control such that only the power level needed for reliable transmission to a particular station (12) is utilized. Each transmitted information packet (80) contains a byte (92) representing the power level at which the packet (80) was transmitted. The power level at which the packet (80) is received is measured and a path attenuation value is calculated, averaged over a plurality of packets and utilized, together with a measured interference level also transmitted in the packet (80), to determined a transmit power level for that path. Also determined is an associated defer threshold level. The transmit power levels and associated defer threshold levels are stored in a table (270).
