Abstract

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for power control using at least one power control parameter. One method ( 1600 ) includes receiving ( 1602 ), at a first device, configuration information comprising a power offset value associated with a first plurality of resources and a first reference signal. The method ( 1600 ) includes receiving ( 1604 ) the first reference signal from a second device. The method ( 1600 ) includes performing ( 1606 ) a first measurement on the first reference signal. The method ( 1600 ) includes calculating ( 1608 ) a first expected receive power value based on the first measurement and the power offset value. The method ( 1600 ) includes calculating ( 1610 ) a first target receive power value. The method ( 1600 ) includes transmitting ( 1612 ) at least one downlink power control parameter to the second device based on the first target receive power value and the first expected receive power value.

Claims (62)

1 . An apparatus for performing a network function, the apparatus comprising:

at least one memory; and

at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the apparatus to:

receive, at a first node, a resource configuration indicating:

an identifier (ID) of the resource configuration;

a plurality of slots; and

a periodicity; and

receive, from a second node, a first control message indicating a received power of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) on resources in a time domain, a frequency domain, and a spatial domain, wherein the resources in the time domain are indicated by the resource configuration and the first control message comprises:

the identifier of the resource configuration;

a first indication of a downlink transmission power adjustment value; and

a second indication of first beam indices; and

obtain the received power of the PDSCH associated with the resources and first beam indices and based on a power offset value with respect to a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) received power.

2 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first node is an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node, and the second node is a parent node of the first node.

3 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first control message is a first medium access control (MAC) message.

4 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the resource configuration is indicated in a radio resource control (RRC) information element (IE).

5 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the power adjustment value is in decibels (dB).

6 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein of the first beam indices comprise one or more of synchronization signal and block (SSB) indices, CSI-RS indices, or quasi-collocation (QCL) parameters.

7 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first node is an IAB node and one or more of the second node is a parent node of the first node or the first node is a child node of the second node.

8 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the apparatus to:

send, to the second node, a second MAC message indicating one or more of:

the identifier of the resource configuration;

a fourth indication of a desired downlink transmission power adjustment value;

a fifth indication of second beam indices; or

a sixth indication of second frequency resources.

9 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the second control message is a second medium access control (MAC) message.

10 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the desired power adjustment value is in decibels (dB).

11 . The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein of the second beam indices comprise one or more of synchronization signal and block (SSB) indices, CSI-RS indices, or quasi-collocation (QCL) parameters.

12 . A method of performing a network function, the method comprising:

receiving, at a first node, a resource configuration indicating:

an identifier (ID) of the resource configuration;

a plurality of slots; and

a periodicity;

receiving, from a second node, a first control message indicating a received power of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) on resources in a time domain, a frequency domain, and a spatial domain, wherein the resources in the time domain are indicated by the resource configuration and the first control message comprises:

the identifier of the resource configuration;

a first indication of a downlink transmission power adjustment value; and

a second indication of first beam indices; and

obtaining the received power of the PDSCH associated with the resources and first beam indices and based on a power offset value with respect to a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) received power.

13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the first node is an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node, and the second node is a parent node of the first node.

14 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the first control message is a first medium access control (MAC) message.

15 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the resource configuration is indicated in a radio resource control (RRC) information element (IE).

16 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the power adjustment value is in decibels (dB).

17 . The method of claim 12 , wherein of the first beam indices comprise one or more of synchronization signal and block (SSB) indices, CSI-RS indices, or quasi-collocation (QCL) parameters.

18 . An apparatus for performing a network function, the apparatus comprising:

at least one memory; and

at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the apparatus to:

receive, at an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node, from a radio resource control (RRC) information element (IE), a resource configuration indicating:

an identifier (ID) of the resource configuration;

a plurality of slots; and

a periodicity;

receive, from a parent node of the IAB node, a first medium access control (MAC) message indicating a received power of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) on resources in a time domain, a frequency domain, and a spatial domain, wherein the resources in the time domain are indicated by the resource configuration and the MAC message comprises:
