Abstract

The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a power configuration method and a terminal. The method includes: determining a percentage of uplink resource; transmitting with high power when the percentage of uplink resource is less than a first percentage, wherein the high power is higher than a maximum transmitting power of a default power class; transmitting with low power when the percentage of uplink resource is greater than or equal to the first percentage, wherein the low power is not higher than the maximum transmitting power of the default power class.

Claims (48)

1. A power configuration method applied to a terminal, comprising:

determining a percentage of uplink resource;

transmitting with high power when the percentage of uplink resource is less than a first percentage, wherein the high power is higher than a maximum transmitting power of a default power class;

transmitting with low power when the percentage of uplink resource is greater than or equal to the first percentage, wherein the low power is not higher than the maximum transmitting power of the default power class.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein transmitting with the high power when the percentage of uplink resource is less than the first percentage comprises:

transmitting with high power when the percentage of uplink symbols transmitted or uplink slots transmitted is lower than the first percentage in a certain time period; or,

transmitting with low power when the percentage of uplink resource is greater than or equal to the first percentage, comprises:

transmitting with low power when the percentage of uplink symbols transmitted or uplink slots transmitted is higher than or equal to the first percentage in a certain time period.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the first percentage is 50%.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the determining the percentage of uplink resource comprises:

determining a percentage of uplink resource within a certain time period, wherein the determining the percentage of uplink resource within the certain time period comprises:

determining a percentage of uplink slots within the certain time period; or

determining a percentage of uplink symbols within the certain time period.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the certain time period is a time period configured by a network, or a time period predefined by a protocol, or a time period determined by the terminal.

6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein, for a slot in which a number of flexible symbols is less than or equal to a symbol number threshold, the flexible symbols in this slot are not used as the uplink symbol;

for a slot in which the number of flexible symbols is greater than the symbol number threshold, the flexible symbols in this slot are used as the uplink symbol according to a third percentage.

7. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the uplink slot comprises: a slot in which the percentage of uplink symbols exceeds a second percentage;

wherein, for a slot in which a number of flexible symbols is less than or equal to a symbol number threshold, the flexible symbols in this slot are not used as the uplink symbol;

for a slot in which the number of flexible symbols is greater than the symbol number threshold, the flexible symbols in this slot are used as the uplink symbol according to a third percentage.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, after the transmitting with the low power when the percentage of uplink resource is greater than or equal to the first percentage, the method further comprises:

transmitting with the high power if a resource in which the percentage of uplink resource is less than the first percentage is detected.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the determining the percentage of uplink resource comprises:

determining a percentage of uplink symbols in a time period in which the terminal transmits with the high power as the percentage of uplink resource.

10. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon, the computer program implementing, when executed by a processor, the steps of the power configuration method according to claim 1 .

11. A terminal comprising: a storage, a processor, and a computer program stored on the storage and capable of running on the processor, the computer program implementing a power configuration method when executed by the processor, the power configuration method comprises:

determining a percentage of uplink resource;

transmitting with high power when the percentage of uplink resource is less than a first percentage, wherein the high power is higher than a maximum transmitting power of a default power class;

transmitting with low power when the percentage of uplink resource is greater than or equal to the first percentage, wherein the low power is not higher than the maximum transmitting power of the default power class.

12. The terminal according to claim 11 , wherein in the power configuration method implemented by the computer program when executed by the processor, the transmitting with high power when the percentage of uplink resource is less than a first percentage, comprises:

transmitting with high power when the percentage of uplink symbols transmitted or uplink slots transmitted is lower than the first percentage in a certain time period; or,

the transmitting with low power when the percentage of uplink resource is greater than or equal to the first percentage, comprises:

transmitting with low power when the percentage of uplink symbols transmitted or uplink slots transmitted is higher than or equal to the first percentage in a certain time period.

13. The terminal according to claim 12 , wherein in the power configuration method implemented by the computer program when executed by the processor, the first percentage is 50%.

14. The terminal according to claim 12 , wherein in the power configuration method implemented by the computer program when executed by the processor, for a slot in which a number of flexible symbols is less than or equal to a symbol number threshold, the flexible symbols in this slot are not used as the uplink symbol;

for a slot in which the number of flexible symbols is greater than the symbol number threshold, the flexible symbols in this slot are used as the uplink symbol according to a third percentage.

15. The terminal according to claim 11 , wherein in the power configuration method implemented by the computer program when executed by the processor, the determining the percentage of uplink resource comprises:

determining a percentage of uplink resource within a certain time period.

16. The terminal according to claim 15 , wherein in the power configuration method implemented by the computer program when executed by the processor, the determining the percentage of uplink resource within the certain time period comprises:

determining a percentage of uplink slots within the certain time period; or

determining a percentage of uplink symbols within the certain time period.

17. The terminal according to claim 16 , wherein in the power configuration method implemented by the computer program when executed by the processor, the uplink slot comprises: a slot in which the percentage of uplink symbols exceeds a second percentage;

wherein, for a slot in which a number of flexible symbols is less than or equal to a symbol number threshold, the flexible symbols in this slot are not used as the uplink symbol;

for a slot in which the number of flexible symbols is greater than the symbol number threshold, the flexible symbols in this slot are used as the uplink symbol according to a third percentage.

18. The terminal according to claim 15 , wherein in the power configuration method implemented by the computer program when executed by the processor, the certain time period is a time period configured by a network, or a time period predefined by a protocol, or a time period determined by the terminal.

19. The terminal according to claim 11 , wherein in the power configuration method implemented by the computer program when executed by the processor, after the transmitting with the low power when the percentage of uplink resource is greater than or equal to the first percentage, the method further comprises:

transmitting with the high power if a resource in which the percentage of uplink resource is less than the first percentage is detected.

20. The terminal according to claim 11 , wherein in the power configuration method implemented by the computer program when executed by the processor, the determining the percentage of uplink resource comprises:

determining a percentage of uplink symbols in a time period in which the terminal transmits with the high power as the percentage of uplink resource.
