Configuring ATPC
ATPC is a closed-loop mechanism by which each radio changes the transmitted signal power
according to the indication received across the link, in order to achieve a desired RSL on the other
side of the link. Without ATPC, if loss of frame occurs the system automatically increases its
transmit power to the configured maximum. This may cause a higher level of interference with
other systems until the failure is corrected.
To enable and configure ATPC and display ATPC settings:
