Power control methods, user equipments, base stations and computer-readable storage media are provided. The method includes: a user equipment determines RSRP corresponding to each of carriers, and determines one or more carriers meeting a first preset condition based on the RSRP corresponding to each of the carriers, where the one or more carriers meeting the first preset condition refer to a carrier generating image interference. Then, the UE reports indication information corresponding to the one or more carriers meeting the first preset condition to a base station to make the base station adjust transmission power of the one or more carriers meeting the first preset condition, so as to alleviate large power difference of each carrier, thus, impact of demodulation performance of some carriers may be reduced, and decline of overall communication performance of carrier aggregation may be alleviated.

A method for processing a time synchronization packet is provided. In an embodiment a terminal device receives a time synchronization packet of a first clock source from an external device; receives first indication information from a network device, where the first indication information instructs the terminal device to enter a time synchronization activated state of the first clock source, or the first indication information instructs the terminal device to enter a time synchronization deactivated state of the first clock source; and processes the time synchronization packet of the first clock source based on the first indication information. When a clock source is activated and deactivated, the terminal device processes a time synchronization packet of the clock source in different manners, and signaling indicates whether the clock source is activated or deactivated.

The disclosed method and an apparatus are directed to determine an uplink transmission power in New Radio (NR) systems by a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) for transmitting at least one physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), using multiple beams toward multiple Tx/Rx points (TRPs). The method includes determining common parameters that are common to the multiple beams. The method also includes determining beam-specific parameters like a configurable fractional power compensation factor for each beam, and a configurable maximum transmit power level for each beam, which are determined dynamically or semi-statically based on deployment, WTRU mobility, or interference level. The method further includes transmitting at least one codeword using at least one of the multiple beams, each of the multiple beams having a transmission power calculated based on the common parameters and the beam-specific parameters.

A communication control method is disclosed, including: connecting, by a small cell by using a built-in soft SIM card or an inserted SIM card, to a Uu air interface of a macro cell to access the macro cell; after receiving a broadcast synchronization signal of the macro cell, synchronizing, by the small cell, with the macro cell, and acquiring configuration information of the macro cell; and performing, by the small cell, system configuration for the small cell according to the configuration information of the macro cell. A SIM card is added to the small cell, so that the small cell can access a macro cell in a terminal form, which is equivalent to addition of a Uu air interface between the small cell and the macro cell. Therefore, configuration management, performance optimization, admissible subscriber configuration, and the like are implemented for the small cell by using this air interface.

A patient monitoring system includes at least two wireless sensing devices, each configured to measure a different physiological parameter from a patient and wirelessly transmit a parameter dataset. The system further includes a receiver that receives each parameter dataset, a processor, and a monitoring regulation module executable on the processor to assign one of the at least two wireless sensing devices as a dominant wireless sensing device and at least one of the remaining wireless sensing devices as a subordinate wireless sensing device. The physiological parameter measured by the dominant wireless sensing device is a key parameter and the parameter dataset transmitted by the dominant wireless sensing device is a key parameter dataset. The key parameter dataset from the dominant wireless sensing device is processed to determine a stability indicator. The subordinate wireless sensing device is then operated based on the stability indicator for the key parameter.
