  • Patent number: 11606237
    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for determining a maximum power reduction for non-contiguous radio resource allocations. One apparatus includes a processor that receives a non-contiguous resource allocation and calculates a fraction of resource block punctured from a smallest containing contiguous allocation (“SCCA”). Here, the SCCA is the smallest set of contiguous resource blocks that encompasses the non-contiguous resource allocation. The processor determines a first additional maximum power reduction for the non-contiguous resource allocation in response to the fraction of punctured resource blocks being less than a threshold value. The apparatus includes a transceiver that transmits an uplink signal on the non-contiguous resource allocation using the first additional maximum power reduction in response to the fraction of punctured resource blocks being less than the threshold value.

  • Patent number: 11601895
    Abstract: A method and apparatus provides for receiving an indication of an uplink resource allocation of resource blocks for a transmission on a master cell group. An indication is received of an uplink resource allocation of resource blocks for a transmission on a secondary cell group. A total additional maximum power reduction is determined based on the indication of the uplink resource allocation of the resource blocks for the transmission on the master cell group and the indication of the uplink resource allocation of the resource blocks for the transmission on the secondary cell group. A remaining power is determined for the secondary cell group by reducing a signaled maximum dual-carrier power by the total additional maximum power reduction and subtracting a configured master cell group power. A secondary cell group additional maximum power reduction is determined as the difference between a signaled maximum secondary cell group power and the remaining power for the secondary cell group.
