Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive downlink control information conveying at least one transmit power control (TPC) command. The UE may transmit a communication using a transmit power based at least in part on the at least one TPC command and a power mode. Numerous other aspects are described.
Claims30
A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, configured to:
- receive downlink control information conveying a plurality of transmit power control (TPC) commands;
- determine a transmit power based at least in part on whether at least one TPC command, of the plurality of TPC commands, is received during a first power mode,
- wherein the transmit power is based on:
- an absolute value of a TPC command, of the plurality of TPC commands, when the TPC command is received during the first power mode, or
- a summation of values corresponding to the plurality of TPC commands when all of the plurality of TPC commands are received during a second power mode;
- and
- transmit a communication using the transmit power.
A network node for wireless communication, comprising:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, configured to:
- transmit downlink control information conveying a plurality of transmit power control (TPC) commands;
- and
- receive a communication using a transmit power,
- wherein the transmit power is based at least in part on whether at least one TPC command, of the plurality of TPC commands, is transmitted during a first power mode, and
- wherein the transmit power is based on:
- an absolute value of a TPC command, of the plurality of TPC commands, when the TPC command is transmitted during the first power mode, or
- a summation of values corresponding to the plurality of TPC commands when all of the plurality of TPC commands are transmitted during a second power mode.
A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
- receiving downlink control information conveying a plurality of transmit power control (TPC) commands;
- determining a transmit power based at least in part on whether at least one TPC command, of the plurality of TPC commands, is received during a first power mode,
- wherein the transmit power is based on:
- an absolute value of a TPC command, of the plurality of TPC commands, when the TPC command is received during the first power mode, or
- a summation of values corresponding to the plurality of TPC commands when all of the plurality of TPC commands are received during a second power mode;
- and
- transmitting a communication using the transmit power.
A method of wireless communication performed by a network node, comprising:
- transmitting downlink control information conveying a plurality of transmit power control (TPC) commands;
- and
- receiving a communication using a transmit power,
- wherein the transmit power is based at least in part on whether at least one TPC command, of the plurality of TPC commands, is transmitted during a first power mode, and
- wherein the transmit power is based on:
- an absolute value of a TPC command, of the plurality of TPC commands, when the TPC command is transmitted during the first power mode, or
- a summation of values corresponding to the plurality of TPC commands when all of the plurality of TPC commands are transmitted during a second power mode.
