Claim One:
1. A node controller, comprising: a network interface; a processor, a memory containing: a distributed power control application; a plurality of node operating parameters describing the operating parameter of a node; and a plurality of node operating parameters describing operating parameters for a set of at least one node selected from the group consisting of an ancestor node and at least one child node; wherein the processor is configured by the distributed power control application to: send node operating parameters to nodes in the set of at least one node; receive operating parameters from the nodes in the set of at least one node; calculate a plurality of updated node operating parameters using an iterative process to determine the updated node operating parameters using the node operating parameters that describe the operating parameters of the node, and the operating parameters of the set of at least one node, where each iteration in the iterative process involves evaluation of a closed form solution; and adjust the node operating parameters.
