Exposure Reporting For Wireless Communications
Wireless communications may use one or more devices for transmission and/or reception that may lead to potentially harmful exposure. One or more safety measures may be used for wireless communication devices, such as maximum power exposure (MPE) reporting and/or related operations. An MPE report may be sent based on MPE detection and one or more messages, such as for cell activation, bandwidth part (BWP) or other wireless resource activation and/or switching, and/or a discontinuous reception (DRX) or other state transition.
1 . A method comprising:
receiving, by a wireless device, a parameter indicating an amount of power reduction; and
based on a comparison of the parameter and a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) power management maximum power reduction (P-MPR) value associated with a serving cell, transmitting a report comprising the MPE P-MPR value.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the serving cell comprises at least one of:
a serving cell operating on frequency range 2 (FR2); or
a secondary cell.
3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising, after transmitting the report:
stopping uplink transmissions via a first panel, of the wireless device, that is associated with the MPE P-MPR value; and
starting uplink transmissions via a second panel of the wireless device.
4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining, based on a detected exposure event, the MPE P-MPR value.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the report further comprises a power headroom report (PHR) value associated with the serving cell.
6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
switching from a first uplink bandwidth part (BWP) of the serving cell to a second uplink BWP of the serving cell; and
determining, based on the switching, the MPE P-MPR value.
7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprises:
transitioning from a discontinuous reception (DRX) inactive time to a DRX active time; and
determining, based on the transitioning, the MPE P-MPR value.
8 . A wireless device comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the wireless device to:
receive a parameter indicating an amount of power reduction; and
based on a comparison of the parameter and a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) power management maximum power reduction (P-MPR) value associated with a serving cell, transmit a report comprising the MPE P-MPR value.
9 . The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the serving cell comprises at least one of:
a serving cell operating on frequency range 2 (FR2); or
a secondary cell.
10 . The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further configure the wireless device to, after transmitting the report:
stop uplink transmissions via a first panel, of the wireless device, that is associated with the MPE P-MPR value; and
start uplink transmissions via a second panel of the wireless device.
11 . The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further configure the wireless device to:
determine, based on a detected exposure event, the MPE P-MPR value.
12 . The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the report further comprises a power headroom report (PHR) value associated with the serving cell.
13 . The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further configure the wireless device to:
switch from a first uplink bandwidth part (BWP) of the serving cell to a second uplink BWP of the serving cell; and
determine, based on the switching, the MPE P-MPR value.
14 . The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further configure the wireless device to:
transition from a discontinuous reception (DRX) inactive time to a DRX active time; and
determine, based on the transitioning, the MPE P-MPR value.
15 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause:
receiving a parameter indicating an amount of power reduction; and
based on a comparison of the parameter and a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) power management maximum power reduction (P-MPR) value associated with a serving cell, transmitting a report comprising the MPE P-MPR value.
16 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the serving cell comprises at least one of:
a serving cell operating on frequency range 2 (FR2); or
a secondary cell.
17 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause:
after transmitting the report:
stopping uplink transmissions via a first panel, of a wireless device, that is associated with the MPE P-MPR value; and
starting uplink transmissions via a second panel of the wireless device.
18 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause determining, based on a detected exposure event, the MPE P-MPR value.
19 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the report further comprises a power headroom report (PHR) value associated with the serving cell.
20 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause:
switching from a first uplink bandwidth part (BWP) of the serving cell to a second uplink BWP of the serving cell; and
determining, based on the switching, the MPE P-MPR value.
