Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a power determining method, a user equipment, and a base station. The method includes: determining an initial transmit power of each transmission object in a transmission object set; when a sum of initial transmit powers of all the transmission objects in the transmission object set is greater than a maximum transmit power, performing a power reduction operation based on a priority sequence of information corresponding to the transmission objects, so as to acquire an available transmit power of each transmission object in the transmission object set, where a sum of available transmit powers of all the transmission objects in the transmission object set is not greater than the maximum transmit power; and sending each transmission object in the transmission object set according to the available transmit power corresponding to each transmission object in the transmission object set.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A power determining method comprising: acquiring an initial transmit power of each transmission object in a transmission object set, wherein the transmission object set comprises at least one of physical random access channel (PRACH), physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), physical uplink shared channel (PUCCH) or sounding reference signal (SRS); performing a power reduction operation based on priority order information associated with each of the transmission objects and in response to a sum of initial transmit powers of all the transmission objects in the transmission object set being greater than a maximum transmit power, wherein a sum of allocated powers of all the transmission objects in the transmission object set is not greater than the maximum transmit power; and sending each transmission object in the transmission object set according to the allocated power associated with each transmission object in the transmission object set, wherein the priority order information associated with each of the transmission objects comprises a priority order of uplink control information (UCI) carried in the transmission object, and wherein the priority order of the UCI satisfies: a) a priority of a transmission object with channel quality information is lower than a priority of another transmission object with a scheduling request; and b) a priority of a transmission object with hybrid automatic repeat acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) information is the same as the priority of another transmission object with a scheduling request. 2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the priority order information associated with each of the transmission objects comprises a priority order of a carrier on which the transmission object is transmitted. 3 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the priority order of the carrier on which each of the transmission objects is transmitted satisfies the following: a carrier with a minimum carrier index has a highest priority. 4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein in response to the priority order of the UCI of at least two transmission objects being the same, the priority order information associated with each of the transmission objects comprises a priority order of a carrier on which the transmission object is transmitted. 5 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the priority order of carrier satisfies the following: a carrier with a minimum carrier index has a highest priority. 6 . A user equipment comprising: a processor configured to acquire an initial transmit power of each transmission object in a transmission object set; and perform a power reduction operation based on a priority order of information associated with each of the transmission objects and in response to a sum of the initial transmit powers of all the transmission objects in the transmission object set being greater than a maximum transmit power, wherein the priority order of the information comprises a priority order of uplink control information (UCI) carried in one of the transmission objects and the transmission object set comprises at least one of a physical random access channel (PRACH), a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), a physical uplink shared channel (PUCCH) or a sounding reference signal (SRS), and wherein a sum of allocated powers of all the transmission objects in the transmission object set is not greater than the maximum transmit power; and a sender configured to cooperate with the processor to send each transmission object in the transmission object set according to the allocated power associated with each transmission object in the transmission object set, wherein the priority order of the UCI carried in each of the transmission objects satisfies the following: a) a priority of the transmission object with channel quality information is lower than a priority of another transmission object with a scheduling request; and b) a priority of the transmission object with hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) information is the same as the priority of another transmission object with a scheduling request. 7 . The user equipment according to claim 6 , wherein the priority order information associated with each of the transmission objects comprises a priority order of a carrier on which the transmission object is transmitted. 8 . The user equipment according to claim 7 , wherein the priority order of the carrier on which each of the transmission objects is transmitted satisfies the following: a carrier with a minimum carrier index has a highest priority. 9 . The user equipment according to claim 6 , wherein in case of the priority order of the UCI of at least two transmission objects being the same, the priority order of the at least two transmission objects includes a priority order of carriers on which the at least two transmission objects are transmitted. 10 . The user equipment according to claim 9 , wherein the priority order of the carriers satisfies the following: a carrier with a minimum carrier index has a highest priority. 11 . A non-transitory storage medium, wherein the non-transitory storage medium stores instructions, which when executed by a processor, cause the processor to: acquire an initial transmit power of each transmission object in a transmission object set, wherein the transmission object set comprises at least one of a physical random access channel (PRACH), a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), a physical uplink shared channel (PUCCH) or a sounding reference signal (SRS); perform a power reduction operation based on priority order information associated with a transmission object and in response to a sum of initial transmit powers of all the transmission objects in the transmission object set being greater than a maximum transmit power, wherein a sum of allocated powers of all the transmission objects in the transmission object set is not greater than the maximum transmit power; and send each transmission object in the transmission object set according to the allocated power associated with each transmission object in the transmission object set; wherein the priority order information associated with each of the transmission objects comprises a priority order of uplink control information (UCI) carried in at least one of the transmission objects, and wherein the priority order of the UCI satisfies the following: a) a priority of each of the transmission objects with a channel quality information is lower than a priority of another transmission object with a scheduling request; and b) a priority of each of the transmission objects with hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) information is the same as the priority of another transmission object with a scheduling request. 12 . The non-transitory storage medium according to claim 11 , wherein the priority order information associated with each of the transmission objects comprises a priority order of a carrier on which the transmission object is transmitted. 13 . The non-transitory storage medium according to claim 12 , wherein the priority order of the carrier on which each of the transmission objects is transmitted satisfies the following: a carrier with a minimum carrier index has a highest priority. 14 . The non-transitory storage medium according to claim 11 , wherein in response to the priority order of the UCI of at least two transmission objects being the same, the priority order information includes a priority order of the carrier on which the at least two transmission objects are transmitted. 15 . The non-transitory s
