  • Patent number: 11985604
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a first control message indicating an uplink power control configuration for the UE. The uplink power control configuration may be associated with a power control identifier and a resource set identifier. The UE may receive a second control message that schedules an uplink message for the UE. The second control message may indicate the resource set identifier and the power control identifier for transmission of the uplink message. The UE may determine a transmit power for the uplink message based on a set of power control parameters, the set of power control parameters corresponding to the resource set identifier and the power control identifier. The UE may transmit the uplink message using a resource set associated with the resource set identifier and in accordance with the determined transmit power.

  • Patent number: 11979840
    Abstract: A method and user equipment to select an emission power from a set of possible emission powers depending on their location relative to a base station. In a 5G development scenario, a massive number of user equipment will be deployed. The data exchanged by this user equipment is mainly signalling data whose volume generates an overload of the network resources. A resource access scheme called uncoordinated resource access scheme reduces the volume of the exchanged data. So that the base station can decode all signals emitted by the user equipment, it is necessary to have a number of emission power levels greater than the number of user equipment. By proposing the user equipment to select an emission power from a set of possible emission powers depending on their location relative to the base station, the solution allows the base station to decode the signals emitted by a greater number of user equipment.
