Exposure control

A method, comprising:

• providing, by an access node, a user device with at least one channel status reporting configuration dedicated for reporting exposure incidents of power or energy density, wherein the at least one channel status reporting configuration comprises at least one exposure indication sequence;
• receiving a report of the exposure incident for at least one beam from the user device by a channel status message comprising the at least one exposure indication sequence and information on adjusting experienced transmission power carried out by the user device using physical channel resources according to the at least one channel status reporting configuration, and
• providing the user device with control information, wherein the control information comprises acknowledgement to the adjusting, transmission configuration and/or information request.

The method of 6, wherein the information request further comprises a request for informing amount of needed transmission power adjustment, uplink bandwidth request, number of physical resource blocks request, downlink/uplink resource configuration request, beam-pair request and/or maximum uplink duty cycle request for the adjusted transmission configuration, wherein the further informing is expressed by at least part of the at least one exposure indication sequence.

An apparatus comprising at least one processor, at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code being configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:

• provide, by an access node, a user device with at least one channel status reporting configuration dedicated for reporting exposure incidents of power or energy density, wherein the at least one channel status reporting configuration comprises at least one exposure indication sequence;
• receive a report of the exposure incident for at least one beam from the user device by a channel status message comprising the at least one exposure indication sequence and information on adjusting experienced transmission power carried out by the user device using physical channel resources according to the at least one channel status reporting configuration, and
• provide the user device with control information, wherein the control information comprises acknowledgement to the adjusting, transmission configuration and/or information request.
