US 2021/0176793 A1 · RACH CONFIGURATION FOR DIFFERENT POWER CLASSES

Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for addressing scenarios where the minimum transmit power supported by a wireless node (e.g., an Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node) is above a minimum value specified by a standard. In some cases, the node may signal information regarding its power configuration so a network entity of the may take it into account (e.g., when allocating or scheduling resources). The power configuration may include an indication of the minimum transmit power supported by the node and/or an indication of a guard band that may help the IAB control adjacent channel leakage.

Claims30

Dependent claims

An apparatus for wireless communications by a first node, comprising:

at least one processor and a memory configured to:
receive, from a network entity, signaling indicating different random access channel (RACH) configurations for different power classes associated with different transmit power configurations;
and
perform a RACH procedure based on a RACH configuration for a power class of the first node.
