System and Method for Closed-loop Uplink Power Control

The patent application describes a method for closed-loop transmission power control in a multi-base station environment with out-of-order scheduling. This method involves the network configuring transmission power control commands to indicate the transmission power for one or more transmissions to different base stations. The user equipment device (UE) receives these commands and considers timing and resources associated with them to determine the transmission power for the transmissions.

The patent application focuses on closed-loop transmission power control in a multi-base station environment.
It introduces a method for the network to configure transmission power control commands for the UE.
The UE considers timing and resources to determine transmission power for different base stations.
The method allows for efficient power control in a complex network environment.

Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment device (UE) and a network to perform closed-loop transmission power control in a multi-base station environment with out-of-order scheduling. The network may configure a series of transmission power control commands to indicate to the UE transmission power for one or more transmissions to different base stations. The UE may receive the transmission power control commands, consider information including timing and/or resources associated with the transmission power control commands, and determine transmission power for the transmissions.
