Abstract
A system and method for uplink power control for aggregated channels in a communication network includes a step 300 of defining power scaling parameters to be used to derive power scaling factors to be applied to associated aggregated uplink channels. A next step 302 includes providing the power scaling parameters to user equipment. A next step 304 includes applying power scaling factors derived from the power scaling parameters to the associated aggregated uplink channels when the user equipment will exceed a maximum transmit power.
Claims18
A method for uplink power control for aggregated channels in a communication network, the method comprising the step of:
- defining power scaling parameters to be used to derive power scaling factors to be applied to associated aggregated uplink channels;
- providing the power scaling parameters to user equipment;
- and
- applying power scaling factors derived from the power scaling parameters to the associated aggregated uplink channels when the user equipment will exceed a maximum transmit power.
An eNodeB operable to control uplink power for aggregated channels in a communication network, the eNodeB comprising:
- a transceiver;
- and
- a processor coupled to the transceiver, the processor operable to define power scaling parameters to be used to derive power scaling factors to be applied to associated aggregated uplink channels, and direct the transceiver to provide the power scaling parameters to user equipment such that the user equipment can apply power scaling factors derived from the power scaling parameters to the associated aggregated uplink channels when the user equipment will exceed a maximum transmit power.
A user equipment operable to control uplink power for aggregated channels in a communication network, the user equipment comprising:
- a transceiver operable to receive defined power scaling parameters to be used to derive power scaling factors to be applied to associated aggregated uplink channels;
- and
- a processor coupled to the transceiver, the processor operable to obtain the power parameters, and direct the transceiver to apply power scaling factors derived from the power scaling parameters to the associated aggregated uplink channels when the user equipment will exceed a maximum transmit power.
