For improved messaging reliability in 5G and 6G, mobile users and their base stations can adjust their transmission power according to the current location of the mobile user. Each entity can maintain a map of known attenuation values, including “dead zones”, and can adjust their transmission power and/or reception gain to compensate. Instead of constantly exchanging location-update messages, the users can indicate their speed and direction, and the base station (or other users) can extrapolate the location versus time to determine a future location, and thereby determine the attenuation factor at the new position. In addition, the base station can use a map to follow the mobile user device's progress, and can thereby update the attenuation factor in real-time. If the mobile user makes a change, it can inform the base station at that time, or during initial access. Result: improved reliability, lower energy consumption, improved traffic safety.

A device including one or more processors configured to: determine a disconnection margin value based on: a current transmission operation state including one or more transmission control parameters, and a current transmission rate; receive a power back-off (PBO) request including a PBO value; perform a comparison of the PBO value to the disconnection margin value; and determine whether to apply a PBO according to the PBO request based on the comparison.

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.

A user equipment (UE) receives a transmit power control (TPC) command and is configured to accumulate the TPC command with prior TPC commands to derive a first value. Further, the UE is configured to produce a second value based on a type of a first signal to be transmitted and a third value based on a transport format of the first signal, wherein the type of signal is from a plurality of types of signals having different spreading factors. The UE is configured to determine a transmission power level for the first signal based on the first value, the second value and the third value. The UE is configured to transmit the first signal at the determined transmission power level.

A base station can prevent deterioration of data channel application control accuracy due to influence of transmission power control to a control channel. In the base station, each encoding section performs encoding processing to an SCCH (Shared Control Channel) of each mobile station, each modulating section performs modulation processing to the encoded SCCH, an arranging section arranges the SCCH to each mobile station to one of a plurality of subcarriers which configure an OFDM symbol, and transmission power control section controls transmission power of the SCCH based on reception quality information reported from each mobile station. The arranging section arranges a plurality of the SCCH to be under transmission power control to one of the subcarriers so that combinations at resource blocks are the same.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for exception-robust time-averaged radio frequency (RF) exposure compliance continuity. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) generally includes transmitting a first signal at a first transmission power based on time-averaged RF exposure measurements over a time window and storing RF exposure information associated with the time window. The method may also include detecting that an exception event associated with the UE occurred and transmitting a second signal at a second transmission power based at least in part on the stored RF exposure information in response to the detection of the event.

A transmission method of simultaneously transmitting a first modulated signal and a second modulated signal at a common frequency performs precoding on both signals using a fixed precoding matrix and regularly changes the phase of at least one of the signals. One of signal generation processing in which phase change is performed and signal generation processing in which phase change is not performed is selectable, thereby improving general versatility in signal generation.

In some examples, an electronic device comprises a wireless transceiver to transmit a packet and a processor coupled to the wireless transceiver. The processor is to update a running average of a radiation level over a time period. The running average is based on a quantity of packets transmitted by the wireless transceiver during the time period and a radiation level associated with the quantity of packets. The processor is to determine whether the running average exceeds a threshold and to control transmission power for the packet based on the determination and based on a destination of the packet.
