Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling the power of small cells in a coverage area includes obtaining signal strength measurements of wireless signals received from a plurality of small cells in a defined coverage area by identifying signal strength at a plurality of locations near the perimeter of the coverage area, and determining a revised transmit power of the small cells based on the determined signal strength (a) to maintain a minimum threshold of received signal while reducing the average power within the coverage area, or (b) to reduce leakage outside the perimeter of the coverage area relative to a desired threshold.
