Abstract

The present application relates to the technical field of communications, and disclosed are a power control method, a method and apparatus for determining transmission resources, a terminal, and a storage medium. The method comprises: acquiring power control configuration information; and according to the power control configuration information, determining whether to perform power control when sending sidelink data. The present application makes all terminals using the same resource pool not perform power control, thereby avoiding the problem in which when a terminal that employs a unicast transmission mode performs power control on a certain resource, a terminal that employs a broadcast transmission mode determines that the resource is available when listening, thereby preempting the resource and causing a transmission conflict.

Claims (55)

1 . A power control method, comprising:

acquiring, by a first terminal, power control configuration information; and

determining, by the first terminal and according to the power control configuration information, whether to perform power control when sending sidelink data,

determining according to the power control configuration information, whether to perform power control according to a sidelink path loss when sending the sidelink data;

determining according to the power control configuration information, whether to perform the power control according to a downlink path loss when sending the sidelink data; and

determining, according to the power control configuration information, whether to perform power control on a Physical Sidelink Control Channel (PSCCH) when sending the sidelink data;

wherein in a case of determining to perform power control according to the sidelink path loss,

the method further comprises:

determining a magnitude of the sidelink path loss;

wherein the determining the magnitude of the sidelink path loss comprises:

determining the magnitude of the sidelink path loss according to a sending power and a Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) measurement result,
