Methods and apparatuses are provided for operating a first terminal. A motion of the first terminal is determined by using sensor data from at least one sensor of the first terminal. A prediction for a channel quality between the first terminal and a second terminal is performed based on the determined motion of the first terminal. At least one first time duration in which the predicted channel quality is greater than or equal to a threshold value and at least one second time duration in which the predicted channel quality is less than the threshold value are determined. Data is transmitted to the second terminal via a first transmission power, where the first transmission power is set for the at least one first time duration.
