1. A communication device comprising one or more processors configured to:
perform a radio measurement to obtain a reception metric;
identify a potential power reduction from a plurality of power reductions;
scale the reception metric to compensate for the potential power reduction to obtain a reduced reception metric; and
select a transmit repetition count for a radio frequency transceiver based on the reduced reception metric.
