Transmitter Power decreases as temperatures rise and increases as temperatures
fall. Use the Output Power Coefficient to calculate increased or decreased power
output for your operating environment. For example, the typical power output at
25°C is -16.4 dBm. For a 4°C temperature increase, multiply the typical
coefficient (-0.15 dBm) by four and add the result to typical output power (4 x -
0.15 dBm + -16.4 = -17.0).
