Abstract

A method for controlling transmission powers by a communication apparatus in a wireless communication system supporting a plurality of component carriers, the method includes controlling transmission powers for one or more channels per each component carrier in such a way that a total transmission power of one or more channels in a corresponding component carrier does not exceed a maximum transmission power configured for the corresponding component carrier; when a simultaneous transmission of a sounding reference symbol (SRS) on a first component carrier, and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) on a second component carrier is scheduled, checking whether a total transmission power of the SRS, the PUSCH and PUCCH exceeds a maximum transmission power configured for the communication apparatus; and dropping a transmission of the SRS if the total transmission power of the SRS, the PUSCH and PUCCH exceeds the maximum transmission power configured for the communication apparatus.

Claims (15)

1. A method for controlling transmission powers by a communication apparatus in a wireless communication system supporting a plurality of component carriers, the method comprising:

controlling transmission powers for one or more channels per each component carrier in such a way that a total transmission power of one or more channels in a corresponding component carrier does not exceed a maximum transmission power configured for the corresponding component carrier;

when a simultaneous transmission of a sounding reference symbol (SRS) on a first component carrier, and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) and a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) on a second component carrier is scheduled, checking whether a total transmission power of the SRS, the PUSCH and PUCCH exceeds a maximum transmission power configured for the communication apparatus; and

dropping a transmission of the SRS if the total transmission power of the SRS, the PUSCH and PUCCH exceeds the maximum transmission power configured for the communication apparatus.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the controlling further comprises calculating transmission powers of the PUSCH and the PUCCH on the second component carrier.

3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

transmitting the PUSCH on the second component carrier based on the calculated PUSCH transmission power.

4. A communication apparatus for controlling transmission powers in a wireless communication system supporting a plurality of component carriers, the communication apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to:

control transmission powers for one or more channels per each component carrier in such a way that a total transmission power of one or more channels in a corresponding component carrier does not exceed a maximum transmission power configured for the corresponding component carrier,

when a simultaneous transmission of a sounding reference symbol (SRS) on a first component carrier and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) on a second component carrier is scheduled, check whether a total of a PUSCH transmission power for a transmission of the PUSCH on the second component carrier and an SRS transmission power for a transmission of the SRS on the first component carrier exceeds a maximum transmission power configured for the communication apparatus, and

drop the transmission of the SRS if the total of the PUSCH transmission power and the SRS transmission power exceeds the maximum transmission power configured for the communication apparatus.

5. The communication apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the processor is further configured to calculate the PUSCH transmission power for the transmission of the PUSCH on the second component carrier.

6. The communication apparatus of claim 5 , further comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit configured to transmit the PUSCH on the second component carrier based on the calculated PUSCH transmission power.
