A method for operating user equipment (UE) includes generating, by the UE, a transmit precoding matrix indicator (TPMI) list including one or more TPMIs selected from a set of available TPMIs stored at a base station (BS). Data indicative of the TPMI list is transmitted to the BS. An index of the TPMI list is transmitted to the BS. Downlink control information (DCI) is received from the BS including an indication of at least one TPMI from the TPMI list based on the index. Uplink data is transmitted to the BS on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) using the at least one TPMI.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some examples, a user equipment (UE) operating according to full duplex (e.g., transmit and receive concurrently) may adapt a transmit power of a sidelink feedback message based on priorities of data messages. For example, the UE may determine a priority of a first data message received at the UE in a previous slot and a priority of a second data message transmitted to the UE in a previous slot. Based on a comparison of the priorities of the data messages, the UE may adjust a transmit power for a feedback message indicating a decoding outcome of the first data message and transmit the feedback message according to the adjusted transmit power while receiving a feedback message indicating the decoding outcome of the second data message thereby increasing efficiency while reducing interference.

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for the determination of PUSCH power control are provided. One method may include receiving, at a UE, at least one dedicated subset of power control parameters and corresponding values to be used for PUSCH power control in a case where a high priority UCI is multiplexed on a low priority PUSCH, and determining one subset from the at least one dedicated subset of power control parameters, or determining one subset from the at least one dedicated subset of power control parameters and determining at least one parameter from the determined subset. The method may also include applying, by the UE, the determined dedicated subset of power control parameters or the determined at least one power control parameter from the determined dedicated subset of power control parameters for determining the PUSCH transmission power when the high-priority UCI is multiplexed on the low-priority PUSCH.

The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for controlling uplink transmission power in a multiple element carrier wave system. The method for controlling uplink transmission power by a terminal in a multiple element carrier wave system includes the steps of: generating an uplink signal to be transmitted in a first serving cell; receiving, from a base station, random access start information for commanding the start of a random access procedure for a second serving cell; calculating the estimated surplus power from first transmission power scheduled for an uplink signal transmission, and second transmission power scheduled for a transmission of a PRACH to which a random access preamble is mapped; and when the estimated surplus power is smaller than a threshold power, adjusting the first transmission power or the second transmission power on the basis of power allocation priority.

Disclosed are a method by which a VRU transmits a safety message in a wireless communication system, and an apparatus therefor, the method comprising the steps of: transmitting state information to a base station on the basis of mobility information; receiving reconfiguration information about transmission parameters from the base station; and transmitting a safety message on the basis of the reconfiguration information, wherein the state information is included in a UEAssistanceInformation message and transmitted if a collision risk is predicted according to peripheral information and the mobility information, and the safety message is transmitted on the basis of transmission power and a transmission period that are changed according to the reconfiguration information.

An apparatus for wireless communications at a first UE may include a memory and at least one processor couple to the memory. The memory and the at least one processor may be configured to select one or more of a PC or a transmission scheme in response to the first UE meeting a speed state threshold. The memory and the at least one processor may be further configured to transmit a sidelink transmission using the one or more of the PC or the transmission scheme based on the first UE meeting the speed state threshold.

A unified frame structure for communicating in a synchronous and slotted mesh network is provided. Nodes within the mesh network are designated as primary and secondary nodes. For each transmission, a primary node may first send scheduling information to secondary nodes associated with the primary node. The receiver of the scheduled link may send a clear-to-send signal. For uplink scheduled transmissions, the receiver is the primary node. For downlink scheduled transmissions, the receiver is a secondary node. The transmitter of the scheduled link may receive the CTS signal from one or more proximate receivers, including a receiver associated with the scheduled transmission as well as other receivers not associated with the scheduled transmission. The transmitter of the scheduled link may estimate the signal to interference-plus-noise ratio of other links that are of higher priority and may then determine whether to yield or power back off the scheduled transmission.

Methods and devices for the prioritization of random access procedure messages for high priority devices, such as for mission critical services. One or more of transmit power, repetition, table selection, P1/BPSK enablement, TB scaling, channel access and CP extension can be adapted for prioritize devices and messages.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured to satisfy an uplink transmission power criterion, such as a specific absorption rate (SAR). The UE may be scheduled to transmit a first uplink message via a first frequency band and a second uplink message via a second frequency band. The UE perform power scaling on the first frequency band and the second frequency band to satisfy the uplink transmission power criterion. For example, the UE may select a first transmission power level for transmitting the first uplink message and a second transmission power level for transmitting the second uplink message based on a function of UE transmission power level over a preceding time interval. The UE may perform uplink power aggregation techniques to temporarily boost transmit power while satisfying the uplink transmission power criterion.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communications, and more specifically to random access procedures and/or prioritization of broadcast transmissions in machine type communications (MTC) devices and enhanced MTC (eMTC). An example method generally includes determining a plurality of subframes in which the UE may transmit a bundled random access channel (RACH) message to a base station (BS), determining, within the subframes, at least one narrowband region for transmitting the bundled RACH message, determining a bundling size for the bundled RACH message, the bundling size indicating a number of the plurality of subframes in which the bundled RACH message is transmitted, and transmitting the bundled RACH message in the narrowband region of the plurality of subframes, based at least in part on the determined bundling size.
