*Future Works*

The simulation results obtained here can be used as the basis for future experimental implementations, which we intend to carry out in our continuation of this work. It is important to note that Equation (10) cannot be generalized to every situation, and is specific to the simulation scenario used in this work. However, the proposed procedure can be replicated to obtain new equations for other simulation scenarios. In addition, while the algorithm proposed in this work does not take into consideration all of the factors that may influence the transmission of data in real scenarios, it is now possible to perform more realistic transmission modeling in Cupcarbon, as updates have been released in recent months that make it possible to use real devices in conjunction with simulations developed in the software.

In this context, we propose further experimental implementation of the proposed power adjustment algorithm; for example, it could be used with ESP32 devices for the purpose of evaluating its operation in a real scenario and making further improvements.
