    Abstract: To avoid damage from overheating, playback device operation can be modulated based on input from temperature sensors. An example method includes obtaining, via one or more temperature sensors carried by the playback device, temperature data. Based on the temperature data, a first temperature parameter is detected. In response to detecting the first temperature parameter, a gain of audio playback is decreased by a first amount. After decreasing the gain of audio playback by the first amount, a second temperature parameter is detected. In response to detecting the second temperature parameter, the gain of audio playback is decreased by a second amount different than the first amount.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to radio transmission of bursts in for example a TDMA cellular radio system. The burst starts with a ramping up period, ends with a corresponding ramping down ramping down period and with the pay-load information therebetween. The ramp form is created in a ramp generator (13) which gives a multiplication value to multiply the digital information to be transmitted in multipliers (15, 16). The multiplied values are converted into analogue form and amplified before being transferred to the antenna (21). Output power and temperature of the transmitting equipment are measured (22, 23) and used to update the output power levels during the next burst.
