SRS POWER CONTROL METHODS FOR CHANNEL ESTIMATION OF RECONFIGURABLE INTELLIGENT SURFACE LINK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18042260 Titled 'SRS POWER CONTROL METHODS FOR CHANNEL ESTIMATION OF RECONFIGURABLE INTELLIGENT SURFACE LINK'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It explains how a base station can determine the transmission power of a user equipment (UE) and communicate with the UE accordingly. The base station can switch between different power control modes and signal this change to the UE. The UE can then transmit a power headroom report to the base station, which helps estimate the transmission power. Alternatively, the base station can request reports indicating the transmission power based on closed-loop power control mode, and the UE can transmit these reports back to the base station.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may determine a sounding reference signal transmission power of a user equipment (UE) and may communicate with the UE according to the determined sounding reference signal transmission power. In some examples, the base station may transmit signaling to the UE indicating a switch from a first power control mode to a second power control mode. The UE may transmit, to the base station and in the second power control mode, a power headroom report which the base station may use to estimate the sounding reference signal transmission power. In other examples, the base station may transmit a request for one or more reports that indicate the sounding reference signal transmission power based on the base station operating in a closed-loop power control mode. The UE may transmit the one or more reports to the base station.
