Applicable time for MAC-CE based path loss reference signal (PL RS) update
11582700 · 2023-02-14 · ·

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to techniques for determining application timing for path loss reference signals (PL RS). For example, the application timing is determined by determining an applicable time for a medium access control control element (MAC-CE) based PL RS for physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) and other uplink transmissions. A user equipment (UE) may receive a MAC-CE indicating a PL RS update and determine the applicable time for applying the PL RS update based on one or more conditions. The applicable time may be a period after acknowledgement of the MAC-CE or correspond to a certain measurement sample of a new PL RS a period after acknowledgement of the MAC-CE. The one or more conditions may relate to a total configured number of PL RS for the UE, whether a MAC-CE based PL RS activation feature is enabled, among others.

Signal transmission power adjustment in a wireless device

Wireless communications are described. A wireless device may determine a first transmission power for a first signal and a second transmission power for a second signal. The wireless device may reduce signal transmission power of one or more of the first signal or the second signal, based on a calculated power value exceeding an allowable transmission power. The wireless device may reduce the signal transmission power during an overlap period or a non-overlap period, based on a duration of an overlap of the first signal with the second signal.

TERMINAL APPARATUS AND COMMUNICATION METHOD

A terminal apparatus transmits a PUCCH in a certain slot, and receives multiple DCI formats on a set of PDCCH monitoring occasions corresponding to the certain slot. In a case that multiple PUCCHs exist in the certain slot and that the multiple PUCCHs include a first PUCCH including a first type HARQ-ACK codebook and a second PUCCH including a second type HARQ-ACK codebook, the second PUCCH is not transmitted.

20230038444 · 2023-02-09 ·

Methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable medium are provided for enabling DCI based power control for PUCCH. An example method includes receiving, from a network entity, a DCI comprising a group TPC message, the DCI indicating multiple TPCs including one or more TPCs associated with one or more secondary cells and a primary cell for the UE and one or more other UEs. The example method further includes identifying a TPC to be applied to a target secondary cell or a target primary cell from the one or more TPCs. The example method further includes transmitting, to the base station, a PUCCH on the target secondary cell or the target primary cell based on the identified TPC from the one or more TPCs.

POWER CONTROL PARAMETER CONFIGURATION FOR CONFIGURED GRANTS
20230041585 · 2023-02-09 ·

This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems supporting power control parameter configuration for configured grants (CGs). In some implementations, a user equipment (UE) may receive control signaling configuring multiple sounding reference signal (SRS) resource sets and multiple sets of power control parameters for CG uplink transmission. The UE may receive downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a retransmission and indicating which set of power control parameters the UE is to use for the CG uplink retransmission. In some other implementations, the control signaling may configure multiple SRS resources sets but a single set of power control parameters. The UE may receive DCI activating the CG configuration or scheduling a retransmission, the DCI indicating a second set of power control parameters not configured by the control signaling. The UE may automatically use the power control parameters configured by the control signaling or may determine a second set based on the DCI.

UPLINK POWER CONTROL WITH FALLBACK DOWNLINK CONTROL INFORMATION
20230045623 · 2023-02-09 ·

This disclosure provides methods for transmissions and retransmissions over a configured grant (CG) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and for transmissions over physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources in multi-transmission and reception point (TRP) deployments. A user equipment (UE) may receive signaling configuring a first set of power control parameters and a second set of power control parameters for a CG-PUSCH resource. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may receive signaling activating a first closed-loop power control operation and a second closed-loop power control operation for a PUCCH resource. In some scenarios, the UE may receive a fallback downlink control information (DCI) format activating or scheduling the CG-PUSCH resource or indicating the PUCCH resource. In such scenarios, the UE may employ one or both of a power control selection rule or a transmit power control (TPC) command application rule for a transmission over the CG-PUSCH resource or the PUCCH resource.

Repeated transmission method and apparatus

Embodiments of this disclosure relate to the communications field, and provide a repeated transmission method and an apparatus, to increase a probability of successful decoding of a user equipment. The method includes: performing, by a user equipment, first transmission of uplink data, and sending a first reference signal to a network device based on a first transmit power, where the first reference signal is used to demodulate the first transmission of the uplink data; and performing, by the user equipment, N.sup.th transmission of the uplink data, and sending a second reference signal to the network device based on a second transmit power, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 2, the second reference signal is used to demodulate the N.sup.th transmission of the uplink data, and the second transmit power is less than the first transmit power.

Transmitter and transmission method

The present invention provides a transmitter which can suitably perform a transmission power control in a PT-RS port. In this transmitter (100), a control unit (101) determines a transmission power for transmitting a reference signal (PT-RS) for phase tracking and a data signal within a range in which the maximum transmission power for each antenna port is not exceeded. In addition, a transmission unit (105) transmits the reference signal for phase tracking and the data signal at the transmission power determined by the control unit (101).

Power control for a two-step random access procedure

A wireless device transmits a first message comprising a preamble and a transport block. The wireless device receives, during a time window, a first downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a response to the first message. The first DCI indicates a first transmit power control (TPC) command value. A decoding failure of the response and an expiry of a timing alignment timer is determined. The wireless device receives, based on the determining and during the time window, a second DCI rescheduling the response. The second DCI indicates a second TPC command value. The wireless device selects, based on a decoding success of the response rescheduled by the second DCI, the second TPC command value as a transmit power adjustment value among the first TPC command value and the second TPC command value. The wireless device transmits a feedback using a transmit power determined based on the transmit power adjustment value.

Uplink signaling for cooperative multipoint communication

A method of operating a wireless communication system is disclosed (FIG. 6). The method includes receiving a virtual cell identification (VCID) parameter (600) from a remote transmitter. A base sequence index (BSI) and a cyclic shift hopping (CSH) parameter (604,606) are determined in response to the VCID. A pseudo-random sequence is selected in response to the BSI and CSH (610,612). A reference signal is generated using the selected pseudo-random sequence (614).
