Abstract
A User Equipment (UE) for allocating power for uplink transmission to an evolved Node B (eNB) is described. The UE includes a processor and memory that is in electronic communication with the processor. Executable instructions are stored in the memory. The UE obtains a power headroom. The UE also obtains a threshold. Also, the UE reduces power consumption if the power headroom is less than the threshold. The power headroom is based on the difference between a maximum uplink transmit power and an estimated uplink transmit power.
