the target Eb/No tolerance is exceeded is the Tx power adjusted to bring the distant Eb/No back to
the target value. The Tx power will only continue to be adjusted automatically until the Eb/No settles
on the target value. This prevents continual Tx power variations under normal minor thermal noise
v ariations. Once settled on the target Eb/No the Tx power adjustment will only be automatically
reactivated when the Eb/No tolerance is again exceeded.
