DEVICE-TO-DEVICE (D2D) CROSS LINK POWER CONTROL
Device-to-device (D2D) cross link power control systems and methods may be disclosed. For example, a device such as a UE or WTRU may determine whether it may have simultaneous transmissions where at least one of the transmissions may include a cross link transmission. The device may further determine whether a total transmit power of the simultaneous transmissions may exceed a maximum transmit power of the device. If the device may have simultaneous transmissions and such transmissions may exceed the maximum transmit power, the device may reallocate power based on a priority or priority setting. The device may further determine a maximum cross link power, a maximum device power, and a cross link transmit power level such that the device may further control the power for transmissions based thereon.
Cell Timing in a Wireless Device and Base Station
Methods and apparatuses are described for wireless communications. Cells may be grouped into a plurality of cell groups. A time adjustment may be determined and applied to uplink transmission timing of a cell group. A transmission timing difference between a first cell group and a second cell group may be determined. If the transmission timing difference exceeding a threshold, one or more devices may stop transmitting uplink signals via one or more secondary cells and/or may stop applying the timing adjustment for a cell group.

DYNAMIC CELL BREATHING FOR POWER SAVING
Systems and methods for dynamic cell breathing for power saving are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method of operation of a radio access node includes determining a target transmit power level from multiple predetermined transmit power levels for the radio access node. The method also includes determining that the current transmit power level should be adjusted to reach the target transmit power level and, in response, adjusting a transmit power level of the radio access node from the current transmit power level to the target transmit power level via multiple transmit power level adjustments. Adjusting the power level of the radio access node via more than one transmit power level adjustment makes it possible to avoid some of the issues with the sleep mode proposal, according to some embodiments.

Specifically, the present invention relates to a method comprising: configuring a first cell group consisting of a PCell and zero or more SCells, and a second cell group consisting of SCell(s); determining transmit power of a first PUCCH to be transmitted through the PCell; and determining transmit power of a second PUCCH to be transmitted through a predetermined SCell in the second cell group, wherein the transmit powers of the first PUCCH and the second PUCCH are adjusted so that the total sum of transmit power of a terminal is not greater than the maximum transmit power of the terminal, considering a minimum guaranteed power which is assigned to each cell group according to protection priorities between cell groups, and the minimum guaranteed power assigned to each cell group is selectively applied to a specific UCI among a plurality of UCIs.
Component carrier activation and deactivation using resource assignments
This invention relates to a proposal of an uplink resource assignment format and a downlink resource assignment format. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of the new uplink/downlink resource assignments in methods for (de)activation of downlink component carrier(s) configured for a mobile terminal, a base station and a mobile terminal. To enable efficient and robust (de)activation of component carriers, while minimizing the signaling overhead, the invention proposes a new uplink/downlink resource assignment format that allow the activation/deactivation of individual downlink component carriers configured for a mobile. The new uplink or downlink resource assignment comprises an indication of the activation state of the configured downlink component carriers, i.e., indicate which downlink component carrier(s) is/are to be activated or deactivated. This indication is for example implemented by means of a bit-mask that indicates which of the configured uplink component carriers are to be activated respectively deactivated.

Signal transmission power adjustment in a wireless device
Wireless communications are described. A wireless device may be configured to transmit a first signal via a first cell group that may overlap in time with a second signal via a second cell group. The wireless device may adjust a signal transmission power of at least one of the first signal or the second signal. Additionally or alternatively, the wireless device may drop at least one of the first signal or the second signal. Adjusting and/or dropping at least one of the first signal or the second signal may be based on the overlap in time of these signals satisfying a duration threshold and a total power to transmit the first signal and the second signal exceeding a power threshold.
