Abstract
Detecting a radio frequency (RF) environment around a computer and using a power management scheme for an RF user input device being used by the computer system. If the computer system is in a single user environment, a power management scheme may be used to conserve power on the RF user input device. If the computer system is in a multi-user environment, a power management scheme may be used to minimize interference between neighboring computer systems by minimizing the signal strength of the RF signal from the RF user input device and the RF signal from the computer system.
