Systems and methods are provided for managing uplink transmission power associated with one wireless link of a dual connectivity session. The location of one or more UEs within a sector or cell is determined and one or more uplink network parameters may be determined or observed at an access point. Upon exceeding a threshold location factor and/or exceeding one or more uplink network parameter thresholds, one or more UEs served by the access point may be instructed to reduce the maximum transmission power associated with a wireless link of a dual connectivity session.
