Abstract

A wireless device may receive one or more messages comprising configuration parameters for a plurality of logical channels comprising a first logical channel. The configuration parameters may indicate: a first logical channel priority for the first logical channel; and a mapping of the first logical channel to one or more transmission durations. An uplink grant indicating radio resources associated with a first transmission duration may be received. Data from the first logical channel may be multiplexed into a first transport block in response to the first transmission duration being one of the one or more transmission durations. A transmission power of the first transport block, may be adjusted based on the first logical channel priority in response to a calculated total transmission power being above a first value. The first transport block may be transmitted via the radio resources.

Claims (40)

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by a wireless device, one or more messages comprising configuration parameters for a plurality of logical channels comprising a first logical channel, wherein the configuration parameters indicate:

a first logical channel priority for the first logical channel; and

a mapping of the first logical channel to one or more transmission durations;

receiving an uplink grant indicating radio resources associated with a first transmission duration of a first cell;

multiplexing data from the first logical channel into a first transport block in response to the first transmission duration being one of the one or more transmission durations, wherein the first transmission duration overlaps in time with a configured transmission of a random access preamble via a second cell;

in response to a calculated total transmission power being above a first value, adjusting a transmission power of one of the random access preamble or the first transport block based on a power priority of the random access preamble compared with a power priority of the first transport block, wherein the power priority of the random access preamble is:

higher than the power priority of the first transport block based on the second cell, via which the random access preamble is transmitted, being a primary cell; and

lower than the power priority of the first transport block based on the second cell, via which the random access preamble is transmitted, being a secondary cell; and

transmitting the first transport block via the radio resources.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the calculated total transmission power is a sum of calculated power levels of a plurality of signals comprising the first transport block.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein a first signal in the plurality of signals is transmitted via a physical uplink control channel.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein a second signal in the plurality of signals is transmitted via a physical random access channel.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more messages indicate the first value.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the adjusting the transmission power further comprises adjusting the transmission power of the random access preamble based on the second cell being the secondary cell.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein an adjusted transmission power of the random access preamble is zero.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein an adjusted transmission power of the random access preamble is smaller than a calculated power of the random access preamble.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first transport block is transmitted via a physical uplink shared channel.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the configuration parameters indicate mapping of the first logical channel to one or more transmission durations up to a first duration.

11. A wireless device comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:

receive one or more messages comprising configuration parameters for a plurality of logical channels comprising a first logical channel, wherein the configuration parameters indicate:

a first logical channel priority for the first logical channel; and

a mapping of the first logical channel to one or more transmission durations;

receive an uplink grant indicating radio resources associated with a first transmission duration of a first cell;

multiplex data from the first logical channel into a first transport block in response to the first transmission duration being one of the one or more transmission durations, wherein the first transmission duration overlaps in time with a configured transmission of a random access preamble via a second cell;

in response to a calculated total transmission power being above a first value, adjust a transmission power of one of the random access preamble or the first transport block based on a power priority of the random access preamble compared with a power priority of the first transport block, wherein the power priority of the random access preamble is:

higher than the power priority of the first transport block based on the second cell, via which the random access preamble is transmitted, being a primary cell; and

lower than the power priority of the first transport block based on the second cell, via which the random access preamble is transmitted, being a secondary cell; and

transmit the first transport block via the radio resources.

12. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the calculated total transmission power is a sum of calculated power levels of a plurality of signals comprising the first transport block.

13. The wireless device of claim 12 , wherein a first signal in the plurality of signals is transmitted via a physical uplink control channel.

14. The wireless device of claim 12 , wherein a second signal in the plurality of signals is transmitted via a physical random access channel.

15. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the one or more messages indicate the first value.

16. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the adjusting the transmission power further comprises adjusting the transmission power of the random access preamble based on the second cell being the secondary cell.

17. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein an adjusted transmission power of the random access preamble is zero.

18. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein an adjusted transmission power of the random access preamble is smaller than a calculated power of the random access preamble.

19. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the first transport block is transmitted via a physical uplink shared channel.

20. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the configuration parameters indicate mapping of the first logical channel to one or more transmission durations up to a first duration.
