Systems and methods for an in-vehicle base station are described. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed, comprising: broadcasting, using the first access radio, the cellular access network at a first power; transmitting the location of the mobile base station to the cellular network; detecting, at the processor, a transition of the mobile base station from a stationary state to a moving state; reducing, at the first access radio, a transmit power of the cellular access network while in the moving state for disabling the cellular access network outside the vehicle; and increasing, at the first access radio, the transmit power of the mobile base station when exiting the moving state.
