Abstract
Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for reporting power headroom. One apparatus includes a processor that identifies a transmission occasion for AUL transmission on an unlicensed serving cell and generates a PHR MAC CE. The apparatus includes a transceiver that transmits the PHR MAC CE with an AUL transmission to a RAN node in the mobile communication network, wherein transmitting the PHR MAC CE includes indicating timing information corresponding to the PHR.
Claims10
A method of a user equipment (“UE”) for power headroom reporting in a mobile communication network, the method comprising:
- identifying a transmission occasion for autonomous uplink (“AUL”) transmission on an unlicensed serving cell;
- generating a power headroom report (“PHR”) Medium Access Control (“MAC”) Control Element (“CE”);
- and
- transmitting the PHR MAC CE with an AUL transmission to a radio access network (“RAN”) node in the mobile communication network,
- wherein transmitting the PHR MAC CE comprises indicating timing information corresponding to the PHR, wherein the timing information indicates a time when the power headroom information was generated.
