Embodiments include methods, performed by a user equipment (UE), for uplink (UL) transmission in a wireless network. Such methods include receiving a configuration associated with an UL transmission to a network node in the wireless network. Such methods include, for each of a plurality of combinations of the UE's available antennas and transmitters, determining metrics based on the UE performing the UL transmission using the particular combination. The metrics include a quality metric associated with reception of the UL transmission by the network node, and a UE energy consumption metric. Such methods include selecting one of the plurality of combinations of the available antennas and transmitters based on the respective quality metrics and the respective UE power consumption metrics, and performing the UL transmission according to the configuration and using the selected combination of available antennas and transmitters. Other embodiments include UEs configured to perform such methods.

A method including: determining a respective first amount of resources each with a respective first power and a non-aggressive MCS such that a target value is guaranteed for a BLER of a transmission to a terminal under a channel estimate of a channel and a SINR estimate; and instructing a transmission device to perform the transmission using the non-aggressive MCS on the first amount of the resources each with the first power, wherein the transmission device may perform hypothetically the transmission using an aggressive MCS on a second amount of the resources each with a respective maximum available power such that the target value is guaranteed for the BLER under the assumed conditions; the first amount of the resources is larger than the second amount of the resources, the respective first power is less than the respective maximum available power.

The present invention provides a method and system for facilitating improved downlink MIMO sector throughput in the presence of UE DC-offset. The system receives BLER from a plurality of UEs and tracks by L1 computing the DL BLER in a UE; checks if the BLER from the UE allocated with an RB containing a DC subcarrier is above a target BLER and if so the L1 increases the power of the RE containing the DC-subcarrier in steps of 3 dB. If the BLER improves in the UE, the L1 stops further increase of power on the DC subcarrier RE. The L1 maintains the improved UE/sector throughput and the subcarrier RE power. The system further supports a plurality of 5G NR UEs with different bandwidth wherein the DC-carrier of each UE can be worked out by the L2 by a set of predefined instructions.

This terminal comprises: a control circuit that controls transmission power of a sidelink on the basis of information about a power control method corresponding to the purpose of usage of a communication link at a base station; and a transmission circuit that carries out sidelink transmission in accordance with the control of the transmission power.

A communication device, method, and computer program product provide power efficient transmit diversity using two transmit chains to meet a transmit power level for an uplink signal when one transmit chain is insufficient.
