1. A device comprising:
a communication unit configured to communicate via main radio channels and a control channel, the main radio channels contributing to radio-frequency (RF) emissions; and
a controller interconnected with the communication unit, the controller configured to:
receive, via the communication unit communicating over the control channel, an RF emissions control command to reduce the RF emissions emitted by the communication unit; and
in response to receiving the RF emissions control command, control one or more of the communication unit and activity on the main radio channels to reduce the RF emissions,
wherein the RF emissions control command comprises an indication of a given RF emissions state, and the controller is further configured to:
control one or more of the communication unit and the activity on the main radio channels to reduce the RF emissions to between an emissions state lower than a current emissions state and the given RF emissions state.
