Abstract

A user apparatus in a wireless communication system including a base station and a user apparatus, includes a signal reception part that receives, from the base station, a plurality of power control parameters that become candidates for power control parameters to be used by the user apparatus, a transmission power determination part that selects power control parameters to be used, from the plurality of power control parameters, and determines a transmission power of a UL signal, based on the selected power control parameters and a pathloss estimation value, and a signal transmission part that transmits the UL signal using the transmission power determined by the transmission power determination part.

Claims (28)

1. A terminal comprising:

a receiver that receives a plurality of parameters that become candidates of a parameter to be used;

a processor that selects a parameter to be used, from the plurality of parameters, determines a pathloss estimation value using the selected parameter, and determines a transmission power of an uplink (UL) signal based on the pathloss estimation value; and

a transmitter that transmits the UL signal using the transmission power determined by the processor,

wherein the processor determines the parameter to be used from the plurality of parameters based on a Medium Access Control (MAC) signaling, and

wherein the UL signal, subject to the transmission power determination, is a Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) that is used for crosslink interference measurement.

2. The terminal as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the receiver receives the plurality of parameters configured for each beam.

3. A base station comprising:

a transmitter that transmits a plurality of parameters that become candidates of a parameter to be used;

a receiver that receives an uplink (UL) signal transmitted from a terminal using a transmission power that is determined based on a pathloss estimation value, wherein a parameter to be used is selected from the plurality of parameters and the pathloss estimation value is determined using the selected parameter,

wherein the parameter to be used from the plurality of parameters is determined based on a Medium Access Control (MAC) signaling, and

wherein the UL signal, subject to the transmission power determination, is a Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) that is used for crosslink interference measurement.

4. A radio communication system comprising:

a terminal that comprises:

a first receiver that receives a plurality of parameters that become candidates of a parameter to be used;

a processor that selects a parameter to be used, from the plurality of parameters, determines a pathloss estimation value using the selected parameter, and determines a transmission power of an uplink (UL) signal based on the pathloss estimation value; and

a first transmitter that transmits the UL signal using the transmission power determined by the processor,

wherein the processor determines the parameter to be used from the plurality of parameters based on a Medium Access Control (MAC) signaling, and

wherein the UL signal, subject to the transmission power determination, is a Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) that is used for crosslink interference measurement, and

a base station that comprises:

a second transmitter that transmits the plurality of parameters; and

a second receiver that receives the UL signal.

5. An uplink (UL) signal transmission method executed by a terminal, comprising:

receiving a plurality of parameters that become candidates of a parameter to be used;

selecting a parameter to be used, from the plurality of parameters, determining a pathloss estimation value using the selected parameter, and determining a transmission power of an UL signal based on the pathloss estimation value;

transmitting the UL signal using the determined transmission power; and

determining the parameter to be used from the plurality of parameters based on a Medium Access Control (MAC) signaling,

wherein the UL signal, subject to the transmission power determination, is a Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) that is used for crosslink interference measurement.
