Abstract

Disclosed are methods and apparatuses. The method implemented at a wireless device may comprise computing an average power for a bin covering a portion of a total solid angle covered by an antenna array of the wireless device by averaging a momentary power for the bin over a time period, wherein the momentary power is computed based on respective scheduled power of at least one beamforming transmission and respective antenna gain of the at least one beamforming transmission in the bin (302, 606, 702, 802, 902, 1002). The method may further comprise performing a back-off power feedback control for the bin based on the computed average power (304, 608, 708, 808, 908, 1006).
