A small number of transmissions are performed at a sufficient number of
frequencies and power levels so that a correlation between frequency,
measured power, and detector values is established. Once a correlation is
established, the wireless transmitter employs the measured data and
calculates target detector values for all supported frequencies and at
all supported power levels, eliminating the need for one frequency and
one power level at a time iterations with a host device. Using the
calculated target detector values and closed loop transmissions, the
radio self-calibrates. Once employed in the field, the wireless
transmitter can utilize measured changes in signal strength to determine
when to re-calibrate, and using measured values from other network
components, can employ the methodology of the present invention to
self-calibrate, eliminating the need for field re-calibrations.
