SYSTEM, DEVICES AND METHODS FOR EFFICIENTLY ESTIMATING WIRELESS MODEM POWER CONSUMPTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240023014 titled 'SYSTEM, DEVICES AND METHODS FOR EFFICIENTLY ESTIMATING WIRELESS MODEM POWER CONSUMPTION
Simplified Explanation
The disclosed patent application is about systems, methods, and devices for estimating the total power consumption of a wireless modem. The power estimation involves determining a static power consumption estimate based on the configuration parameters of the modem subcomponents. It also includes determining a dynamic power consumption estimate by summing the predefined power offset associated with the current reported power level and the maximum transmit power of each active power amplifier in the modem. The static and dynamic power consumption estimates are combined to provide the total estimated power consumption of the wireless modem.
- The patent application relates to estimating the power consumption of a wireless modem.
- The power estimation includes a static power consumption estimate based on modem subcomponent configuration parameters.
- The power estimation also includes a dynamic power consumption estimate based on the power offset and maximum transmit power of each active power amplifier.
