Abstract

There is provided a terminal device that communicates with a base station device. The terminal device includes: a transmission unit that, in a case where dual connectivity is configured and uplink transmission to a serving cell (first serving cell) belonging to a first cell group (first CG) and uplink transmission to a serving cell (second serving cell) belonging to a second cell group (second CG) overlap with each other, determines a maximum output power in the overlapped portion based on a maximum output power of the first serving cell and a maximum output power of the second serving cell.

Claims (12)

1. A terminal device comprising:

a receiver which receives a higher layer signal including uplink power control information; and

a transmitter which sets, in a subframe for a serving cell, a transmit power of an uplink signal; wherein

the transmitter sets a maximum transmit power based on the uplink power control information;

the transmitter sets a first transmit power in a first subframe i for a first cell group (CG1) such that a first total of the first transmit power in the first subframe i and a second transmit power in a second subframe i for a second cell group (CG2) does not exceed the maximum transmit power in a first case where the first subframe i for the CG1 does not overlap with second subframes i−1 and i for the CG2; and

the transmitter sets the first transmit power in the first subframe i for the CG1 such that a second total of the first transmit power in the first subframe i and the second transmit power in a second subframe i−1 for the CG2 does not exceed the maximum transmit power in a second case where the first subframe i for the CG1 overlaps with the second subframes i−1 and i for the CG2.

2. A method of a terminal device comprising:

receiving a higher layer signal including uplink power control information; and

setting, in a subframe for a serving cell, a transmit power of an uplink signal;

setting a maximum transmit power based on the uplink power control information;

setting a first transmit power in a first subframe i for a first cell group (CG1) such that a first total of the first transmit power in the first subframe i and a second transmit power in a second subframe i for a second cell group (CG2) does not exceed the maximum transmit power in a first case where the first subframe i for the CG1 does not overlap with second subframes i-1 and i for the CG2; and

setting the first transmit power in the first subframe i for the CG1 such that a second total of the first transmit power in the first subframe i and the second transmit power in a second subframe i−1 for the CG2 does not exceed the maximum transmit power in a second case where the first subframe i for the CG1 overlaps with the second subframes i−1 and i for the CG2.
