Abstract

This application provides a power control method including: receiving, by a second node, radio resource control (RRC) from a first node, where the RRC includes a power control parameter set configured for the second node, the power control parameter set includes a power control index, and the power control index is determined based on a transmission mode or a transmission capability of the second node; receiving downlink control information (DCI) including power control index indication information used to: when the first node schedules the second node, indicate a value of a power control index that is for uplink transmission and that is for the second node; determining a transmit power based on the power control index indication information and the power control parameter set; and sending a signal at the determined transmit power.

Claims (23)

1. A power control apparatus, comprising:

a transceiver, configured to: receive radio resource control (RRC) comprising a power control parameter set of the power control apparatus, the power control parameter set comprises a power control index determined based on a transmission mode or a transmission capability of the power control apparatus; and receive downlink control information (DCI) comprising power control index indication information that indicates a configured value of a power control index for uplink transmission; and

a processor, configured to determine a transmit power based on the power control index indication information and the power control parameter set;

wherein the transmission mode is a space division multiplexing transmission mode, and the transmission capability is a quantity of beams supported by the power control apparatus.

2. The power control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the transceiver is further configured to send a signal at the determined transmit power.

3. The power control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the power control parameter set further comprises at least one of the following power control parameters:

an uplink power control identifier, an uplink reference signal path loss identifier, an uplink transmission reference power, a power control parameter, or a path loss compensation factor.

4. The power control apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the power control index is associated with the power control parameter.

5. A power control apparatus, comprising:

a transceiver, configured to: receive radio resource control (RRC) comprising a power control parameter set of the power control apparatus, the power control parameter set comprises a power control index determined based on a transmission mode or a transmission capability of the power control apparatus; and receive downlink control information (DCI) comprising power control index indication information that indicates a configured value of a power control index for uplink transmission; and

a processor, configured to determine a transmit power based on the power control index indication information and the power control parameter set;

wherein different transmission modes of the power control apparatus correspond to different power control indexes, and different transmission capabilities of the power control apparatus correspond to different power control indexes.

6. The power control apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the transceiver is further configured to send a signal at the determined transmit power.

7. The power control apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the power control parameter set further comprises at least one of the following power control parameters:
