POWER CONTROL METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17961928 titled 'POWER CONTROL METHOD AND APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a power control method and apparatus for a terminal device that supports multiple control resource set pool indexes. The method includes the following steps:
- Receiving a first physical downlink control channel from a network device, which carries a power offset corresponding to a physical downlink control channel.
- Determining the transmit power for the physical downlink control channel based on a power control process. This process involves accumulating power offsets indicated by the network device and determining the transmit power based on the accumulation result.
- Sending the physical downlink control channel to the network device at the determined transmit power.
Potential applications of this technology include:
- Mobile communication systems: The power control method and apparatus can be used in mobile devices to optimize the transmission power of physical downlink control channels, improving the overall performance and efficiency of the communication system.
- Wireless networks: The technology can be applied in various wireless network environments, such as Wi-Fi networks or cellular networks, to enhance the power control capabilities of terminal devices.
Problems solved by this technology include:
- Power optimization: The power control method helps to optimize the transmit power of physical downlink control channels, ensuring efficient use of power resources and reducing unnecessary power consumption.
- Interference reduction: By accurately determining the transmit power based on accumulated power offsets, the technology can help reduce interference with other devices or channels, improving the overall quality of communication.
Benefits of this technology include:
- Improved power efficiency: By optimizing the transmit power, the technology helps to conserve power resources and extend the battery life of terminal devices.
- Enhanced communication quality: Accurate power control reduces interference and improves the reliability and quality of communication between terminal devices and network devices.
- Flexibility and scalability: The method supports multiple control resource set pool indexes, providing flexibility and scalability for different network configurations and requirements.
