Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may transmit maximum permissible exposure related information that indicates at least one of: a transmit power limit corresponding to a specified time interval, an average transmit power limit corresponding to the specified time interval, or a combination thereof; and receive an allocation of transmission resources. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Claims (94)

1. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:

receiving a parameter configuration comprising trigger information,

wherein the trigger information indicates a trigger for transmitting at least one of:

a transmit power limit corresponding to a specified time interval associated with a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) limit,

an average transmit power limit corresponding to the specified time interval, or

a combination thereof, and

wherein the trigger comprises a specified event detected by the UE;

transmitting MPE-related information that indicates at least one of:

the transmit power limit,

the average transmit power limit, or

the combination thereof; and

receiving an allocation of transmission resources associated with the specified time interval over which the MPE limit is to be satisfied in accordance with the transmit power limit, the average transmit power limit, or the combination thereof.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the MPE-related information includes an MPE condition associated with the UE.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein at least one of the transmit power limit or the average transmit power limit is based at least in part upon the MPE condition.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the MPE-related information is transmitted using a medium access control (MAC) control element.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the MPE-related information is transmitted in a power headroom report.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the trigger further comprises a dynamic signaling message from a base station.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein transmitting the MPE-related information comprises transmitting the MPE-related information to another UE.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the allocation of transmission resources is received from the other UE and includes an allocation of sidelink resources.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the allocation of transmission resources indicates at least one of:

a set of transmission parameters,

a transmit power corresponding to a transmit time interval,

a duration of the transmit time interval, or

a combination thereof.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the set of transmission parameters indicates at least one of:

a modulation and coding scheme (MCS),

a set of time resources,

a set of frequency resources, or

a combination thereof.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the MPE-related information is transmitted using a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) or uplink control information (UCI) on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH).

12. A method of wireless communication performed by a base station (BS), comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), a parameter configuration comprising trigger information,

wherein the trigger information indicates a trigger for transmitting at least one of:

a transmit power limit corresponding to a specified time interval associated with a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) limit,

an average transmit power limit corresponding to the specified time interval, or

a combination thereof, and

wherein the trigger comprises a specified event detected by the UE;

receiving, from the UE, MPE-related information that indicates at least one of:

the transmit power limit,

the average transmit power limit, or

the combination thereof; and

transmitting an allocation of transmission resources associated with the specified time interval.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the MPE-related information includes an MPE condition associated with the UE.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein at least one of the transmit power limit or the average transmit power limit is based at least in part upon the MPE condition.

15. The method of claim 12 , wherein the MPE-related information is transmitted using a medium access control (MAC) control element.

16. The method of claim 12 , wherein the MPE-related information is transmitted in a power headroom report.

17. The method of claim 2 , wherein the trigger further comprises a dynamic signaling message to the UE.

18. The method of claim 12 , wherein the allocation of transmission resources includes an allocation of uplink resources.

19. The method of claim 12 , wherein the allocation of transmission resources indicates at least one of:

a set of transmission parameters,

a transmit power corresponding to a transmit time interval,

a duration of the transmit time interval, or

a combination thereof.

20. The method of claim 19 , wherein the set of transmission parameters indicates at least one of:

a modulation and coding scheme (MCS),

a set of time resources,

a set of frequency resources, or

a combination thereof.

21. The method of claim 12 , wherein the allocation of transmission resources is based at least in part on the MPE-related information.

22. A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:

one or more memories; and

one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories, the one or more processors configured to:

receive a parameter configuration comprising trigger information,

wherein the trigger information indicates a trigger for transmitting at least one of:

a transmit power limit corresponding to a specified time interval associated with a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) limit,

an average transmit power limit corresponding to the specified time interval, or

a combination thereof, and

wherein the trigger comprises a specified event detected by the UE;

transmit MPE-related information that indicates at least one of:

the transmit power limit,

the average transmit power limit, or

the combination thereof; and

receive an allocation of transmission resources associated with the specified time interval over which the MPE limit is to be satisfied in accordance with the transmit power limit, the average transmit power limit, or the combination thereof.

23. The UE of claim 22 , wherein the MPE-related information includes an MPE condition associated with the UE.

24. The UE of claim 23 , wherein at least one of the transmit power limit or the average transmit power limit is based at least in part upon the MPE condition.

25. The UE of claim 22 , wherein the MPE-related information is transmitted using a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) or uplink control information (UCI) on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH).

26. The UE of claim 22 , wherein the trigger further comprises a dynamic signaling message from a base station.

27. The UE of claim 22 , wherein transmitting the MPE-related information comprises transmitting the MPE-related information to another UE.

28. A base station (BS) for wireless communication, comprising:

one or more memories; and

one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories, the one or more processors configured to:

transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a parameter configuration comprising trigger information,

wherein the trigger information indicates a trigger for transmitting at least one of:

a transmit power limit corresponding to a specified time interval associated with a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) limit,

an average transmit power limit corresponding to the specified time interval, or

a combination thereof, and

wherein the trigger comprises a specified event detected by the UE;

receive, from the UE, MPE-related information that indicates at least one of:

the transmit power limit,

the average transmit power limit, or

the combination thereof; and

transmit an allocation of transmission resources associated with the specified time interval.

29. The base station of claim 28 , wherein the MPE-related information includes an MPE condition associated with the UE.

30. The base station of claim 28 , wherein at least one of the transmit power limit or the average transmit power limit is based at least in part upon the MPE condition.
