Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit an indication of support for one or more of panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting of maximum permissible exposure (MPE) parameters. The UE may receive an indication to report the MPE parameters with panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting. Numerous other aspects are described.

Claims (90)

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

transmitting an indication of support for the UE to transmit a channel state information (CSI) report that includes CSI for an uplink channel;

transmitting an indication of support for one or more of panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting of maximum permissible exposure (MPE) parameters; and

receiving an indication to report the MPE parameters with panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transmitting an MPE report having panel-specific parameters or beam-specific parameters.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the MPE parameters comprise one or more of:

a power-management-based maximum power reduction value,

a power headroom value,

a virtual power headroom value, or

a modified power headroom value.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating a panel-specific report based at least in part on beam-specific values.

5 . The method of claim 4 , wherein generation of the panel-specific report based at least in part on the beam-specific values comprises:

generating the panel-specific report based at least in part on a minimum beam-specific value, a maximum beam-specific value, or an average of the beam-specific values.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the indication of support for one or more of panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting of MPE parameters comprises an indication of support for layer 1 reporting of one or more of panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting of MPE parameters.

7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the layer 1 reporting comprises one or more of:

a reference signal received power report, or

a signal-to-interference-plus-noise report.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the indication of support for the UE to transmit a CSI report that includes CSI for the uplink channel indicates support for the UE to transmit the CSI for the uplink channel via one or more of:

a same report that includes CSI for a downlink channel, or

a separate report from a report that includes CSI for the downlink channel.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the support for the one or more of panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting is based at least in part on one or more of:

available computing resources of the UE,

available communication resources of the UE, or

MPE sensing components of the UE.

10 . A method of wireless communication performed by a base station, comprising:

receiving an indication of support for a user equipment (UE) to transmit a channel state information (CSI) report that includes CSI for an uplink channel;

receiving an indication of support by the UE for one or more of panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting of maximum permissible exposure (MPE) parameters; and

transmitting, to the UE, an indication to report the MPE parameters with panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting.

11 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

receiving an MPE report having panel-specific parameters or beam-specific parameters.

12 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the MPE parameters comprise one or more of:

a power-management-based maximum power reduction value,

a power headroom value,

a virtual power headroom value, or

a modified power headroom value.

13 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:

transmitting an indication of a configuration for generating a panel-specific report based at least in part on beam-specific values.

14 . The method of claim 13 , wherein the configuration for generating the panel-specific report based at least in part on the beam-specific values comprises:

a configuration to generate the panel-specific report based at least in part on a minimum beam-specific value, a maximum beam-specific value, or an average of the beam-specific values.

15 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the indication of support for one or more of panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting of MPE parameters comprises an indication of support for layer 1 reporting of one or more of panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting of MPE parameters.

16 . The method of claim 15 , wherein the layer 1 reporting comprises one or more of:

a reference signal received power report, or

a signal-to-interference-plus-noise report.

17 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the indication of support for the UE to transmit the CSI report that includes CSI for the uplink channel indicates support for the UE to transmit the CSI for the uplink channel via one or more of:

a same report that includes CSI for a downlink channel, or

a separate report from a report that includes CSI for the downlink channel.

18 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the support for the one or more of panel-specific reporting or beam-specific reporting is based at least in part on one or more of:
