POWER CONTROL FOR SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL IN NON-TERRESTRIAL NETWORKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18073405 titled 'POWER CONTROL FOR SOUNDING REFERENCE SIGNAL IN NON-TERRESTRIAL NETWORKS
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application describes techniques for wireless communications by a user equipment (UE). - The UE receives signaling indicating values for a scheduling offset between a downlink slot (where downlink control information is received) and an uplink slot for transmitting a physical uplink shared channel. - The UE determines an additional offset to be used with the scheduling offset values to determine the timing for transmitting the physical uplink shared channel. - The UE also determines a power control adjustment for a sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission based on transmission power control (TPC) commands received within a specific time interval determined by the scheduling offset values and the additional offset. - Finally, the UE transmits the SRS in accordance with the determined power control adjustment during an SRS transmission occasion.
Original Abstract Submitted
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for wireless communications by a user equipment (UE) generally including receiving signaling indicating one or more values for a scheduling offset between a downlink slot where downlink control information (DCI) is received and an uplink slot for transmitting a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) scheduled by the DCI; determining an additional offset to be used in conjunction with the scheduling offset values to determine PUSCH transmission timing; determining a power control adjustment for a sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission based on transmission power control (TPC) commands received in a time interval determined by one of the scheduling offset values and the additional offset; and transmitting SRS in an SRS transmission occasion, in accordance with the determined power control adjustment.
