1. A method for automatic power and modulation management in a communication network, comprising:
generating a management function of at least (a) mutual information per symbol (MIPS) of the communication network and (b) output power (P) of a transmitter of the communication network;
determining a selected MIPS value and a selected P value which achieve a maximum value of the management function; and
causing the transmitter of the communication network to operate according to the selected MIPS value and the selected P value,
wherein the communication network includes one or more of a cellular wireless communication network, a Wi-Fi wireless communication network, a satellite wireless communication network, a cable communication network, a digital subscriber line communication network, a data center communication network, a hyperscale computing environment communication network, an Ethernet communication network, and a free space optical communication network.
