Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method includes estimating a temperature change to an integrated circuit, which is associated with a pending transmission from the integrated circuit. The method includes, based on the estimated temperature change, regulating at least one parameter that is associated with the pending transmission to maintain a temperature of the integrated circuit below a temperature threshold.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method comprising: estimating a temperature change to an integrated circuit associated with a pending transmission from the integrated circuit; and based on the estimated temperature change, regulating at least one parameter associated with the pending transmission to maintain a temperature of the integrated circuit below a temperature threshold, wherein regulating the at least one parameter comprises selectively using a back off time period to regulate…
