First, relevant content involved in the embodiments of this application is described below.

I. Description of Multi-TRP Scenarios

1. Multi-Downlink Control Information (DCI) Scheduled Multi-Transmission Reception Point (TRP)

The multi-TRP (MTRP) transmission technique is introduced to improve the throughput of data transmission.

Multi-DCI (mDCI) scheduling: Each TRP sends its own physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), and each PDCCH schedules its own physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH)/physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH)/physical uplink control channel (PUCCH). In this case, multiple control resource sets (CORESET) configured for a terminal (UE) are associated to different radio resource control (RRC) parameters, for example, a control resource set pool index (CORESETPoolIndex) corresponds to different TRPs.

2. Single-DCI Scheduled Multi-TRP

In a scenario that supports multi-TRP, one DCI is used to dynamically schedule a PUSCH repetition transmission scheme by time division multiplexing (TDM).

For each PUSCH repetition, multiple transmit beams (spatial relation) corresponding to different TRPs are used respectively for transmission, to improve the reliability of PUSCH transmission.

For Type A (slot-level) PUSCH repetition, one PUSCH repetition can be regarded as one PUSCH transmission occasion in each slot. For Type B PUSCH repetition, one PUSCH repetition is a nominal repetition.

The DCI may indicate two sets of beams (spatial relation), a precoding matrix (Transmitted Precoding Matrix Indicator, TPMI), a power control parameter, and the like. In addition, a new 2-bit indication field is added in the DCI to support dynamic adjustment between STRP and MTRP, and flexible exchange of a sequence of the transmit beams for the PUSCH repetition.

A mapping relationship between each PUSCH repetition and the beam may be configured based on the RRC parameters as cyclic mapping and sequential mapping.

In a PUCCH repetition transmission scheme in a scenario that supports multi-TRP, the network activates two beams (spatial relation) for a PUCCH resource or a PUCCH group, and each PUCCH repetition is transmitted by using the two beams. A mapping relationship between each PUCCH repetition and the beam may be configured based on the RRC parameters as cyclic mapping and sequential mapping.

The mentioned beam information may also be referred to as: beam identification information, spatial relation information, spatial domain transmission filter information, spatial domain reception filter information, spatial filter information, transmission configuration indication state (TCI state) information, quasi co-location (QCL) information, QCL parameters, or the like. Downlink beam information may usually be represented by TCI state information or QCL information. Uplink beam information may usually be represented by TCI state information or spatial relation information.

II. About Power Control (PC) Mechanism

1. The effect of power control includes: power maintenance, performance improvement, and interference reduction.

Power maintenance: Power is adjusted based on a distance between UE and a base station, to ensure approximated power of the arrival of signals at the base station.

Performance improvement: Power is dynamically adjusted based on channel changes, to implement accurate and fast power adjustment.

Interference reduction: Adjacent channel power leakage is reduced, to reduce interference between users and between cells, and prolong battery life.

2. Power control is divided into downlink channel power control and uplink channel power control.

The downlink channel power control mainly relies on the configuration and implementation on the network side.

The uplink channel power control includes: PUSCH PC, PUCCH PC, sounding reference signal (SRS) PC, and physical random access channel (PRACH) PC.

In addition, power control further includes: power headroom report (PHR), power scaling (Power sharing), and the like.

The power headroom report is mainly to assist the base station in scheduling. The power scaling is mainly to share power to ensure transmission of a cell/channel with a high priority.

3. In PC parameters:

P_CMAX,f,c(i): maximum output power configured for the terminal. Transmission power does not exceed the configured maximum output power.

P0: target power value at an open-loop receive end. Usually, a larger value indicates higher UL transmission power and a higher received signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (signal-to-noise and interference ratio, SINR).

PL (path loss): The path loss is estimated based on a pathloss reference signal (PLRS), that is, a synchronization signal block (Synchronization Signal and PBCH block, SSB) and a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS). The UE needs to maintain multiple path loss estimates and call the path loss estimates according to an index configured or indicated by the network.

Alpha: fractional path-loss compensation factor, in the range of [0,1].

PUSCH and SRS: When alpha is 0, the path loss is completely omitted. When alpha is 1, the path loss is fully compensated, and in this case, cell center UE UL power is excessively low (that is, the overall throughput is excessively low), and cell edge UE UL power is excessively high (that is, the inter-cell interference is excessively large).

PUCCH and PRACH: require no throughput but reliability, so alpha is taken as 1.

f(1): power control adjustment state value, which is divided into an accumulation mode and an absolute assignment mode.

CLI: closed-loop power control index (closedLoopIndex), 1=0 or 1=1.

(1) PUCCH PC Parameters:

PLRS: pathloss reference signal, configured in PUCCH-PathlossReferenceRS in the RRC parameters.

P0: There are 8 pairs, that is, its index q_u=0-7, where a value of q_u is configured based on PUCCH-SpatialRelationInfo in the RRC parameters.

Alpha: There is no alpha for the PUCCH, or alpha=1.

CLI: configured in PUCCH-SpatialRelationInfo in the RRC parameters, with a value of 0 or 1.

(2) SRS PC Parameters:

PLRS: indicated by PathlossReferenceRS in the RRC parameters.

P0 and alpha: The index of the combination of P0 and α is q_s, P0 and α are parameters configured in SRS-ResourceSet, which are bandwidth part (BWP)-level configuration parameters.

CLI: closed-loop power control index. If SRS power control and PUSCH power control are associated (indicated by higher layer signaling srs-PowerControlAdjustmentStates), the SRS power control is determined based on the PUSCH. Otherwise, the SRS uses independent power control, and 1=0 (which can only be implemented through DCI 2_3).

(3) PUSCH PC Parameters:

PLRS: path loss estimate measured based on a reference signal (RS) with the index of q_d. The index is indicated by higher layer signaling PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS, q_d=0-3.

PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS includes one ID and one RS. The RS may be SSB or CSI-RS.

If there is no PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS, SSB included in a master information block (MIB) is used.

For PUSCH transmission, when the UE has SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl with different q_d,

• • for DCI format 0_1 including SRI information, the UE obtains the association (one-to-one correspondence) of an SRS resource indicator (SRI) and PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS-Id through higher layer signaling; when the PUSCH is scheduled by DCI format 0_1 including a certain SRI, q_d of the corresponding PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS is used;
  • for DCI format 0_0 and spatial relation information (spatial relation info) configured for the PUCCH, q_d corresponding to Rs in spatial relation info of the PUCCH is used;
  • for DCI format 0_0 and no spatial relation info configured for the PUCCH or no SRI information for DCI format 0_1 or no SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl configured, RS with PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS-Id of 0 is used as the path loss estimate;
  • for Msg3 PUSCH, the UE uses RS resource index q_d of the corresponding PRACH; and
  • for ULRRC grant free, q_d is configured by a higher layer; if q_d is not configured, RS with PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS-Id of 0 is used as the path loss estimate.

P0 and alpha: consisting of P_{o_NOMINALPUSCHf,c}(j) and P_{o_NOMINALPUSCHf,c}(j). The former has no b subscript and is the carrier-level component (−202, −200, . . . , 22, 24 dbm) common for cells. The latter is the BWP-level component (−16, −15, . . . , 14, 15) configured independently by the UE.

The latter is configured in pairs with alpha, and there are a total of 32 pairs, which are referred to as P0-PUSCH-AlphaSet.

j=0 is for RRC with no P0-PUSCH-AlphaSet configured or for Message 3 PUSCH. A specific value is assigned by relevant higher layer signaling (preambleReceivedTargetPower, msg3-DeltaPreamble, or msg3-Alpha).

j=1 is for URLLC grant free transmission. A specific value is assigned by ConfiguredGrantConfig-related higher layer signaling.

j=2-31: related to Grant-based transmission, different j may be configured for different beams.

For DCI format 0_1 including SRI information, the UE obtains the association (one-to-one correspondence) of an SRI and AlphaSet Id through higher layer signaling SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl; when the PUSCH is scheduled by DCI format 0_1 including a certain SRI, AlphaSet of the corresponding ID is used.

For DCI format 0_1 that does not include SRI information or DCI format 0_0 or no configuration of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl, a value of the first P0-PUSCH-AlphaSet of AlphaSet is used.

f_b,f,c (i, l): power control adjustment state value, where 1 is related to SRI, 1=0 or 1.

If a higher layer configures tpc-Accumulation, the value is the accumulation mode (−1, 0, 1, 3 dB);

if a higher layer does not configure tpc-Accumulation, the value is the direct assignment mode (−4, −1, 1, 4 dB); and

DCI 0_0, 0_1, 2_2 include the adjustment value.

Enhancement to the PC mechanism:

The PUSCH supports the use of a Media Access Control control element (MAC CE) to update a mapping relationship between sri-PUSCH-PowerControlId and PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS-Id.

If grant-based/grant-free PUSCH & DCI format 0_1 scheduled/activated by DCI format 0_1 does not include SRI field, RS resource index corresponding to PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS-Id associated to sri-PUSCH-PowerControlId=0 is used as PL RS.

SRS: supporting the use of MAC CE to activate and update one PL RS for an SRS resource set.

Enhancement to the PC mechanism in an mTRP scenario:

PUSCH PC parameter set (power control parameter set):

For an sDCI-scheduled PUSCH repetition scheme, when DCI format 0_1/0_2 indicates SRS resources in two sets through two SRI fields, the SRS resources correspond to two power control parameter sets (using SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl) respectively. The SRI fields are associated with the two PC parameter sets.

When only one SRS resource in the set, the SRI field is default in the DCI. In this case,

if enablePL-RS-UpdateForPUSCH-SRS is configured, TRP1 uses the first group of values {the first value in P0 AlphaSet, PL-RS corresponding to the first sri PUSCH power control associated with the first SRS resource set, closed-loop index 1=0}, and TRP2 uses the second group of values {the second value in P0 AlphaSet, PL-RS corresponding to the first sri PUSCH power control associated with the second SRS resource set, closed-loop index 1=1 (if twoPUSCH PC AdjustmentState is configured), otherwise 1=0}.

Otherwise, TRP1 uses the first group of values {the first value in P0 AlphaSet, that is, PL-RS with PUSCH PathlossReferencer Id=0 and closed-loop index 1=0}, and TRP2 uses the second group of values {the second value in P0 AlphaSet, that is, PL-RS with PUSCH PathlossReferencer Id=1 and closed-loop index 1=1 if twoPUSCH PC AdjustmentState is configured, otherwise 1=0}.

When DCI format 0_1/0_2 indicates per-TRP OLPC set, if the DCI has two SRI fields (domain), an existing field (1 bit) is used for OLPC set indication and the second p0-PUSCH-SetList-r16.

If a value of the field is equal to “0”, the UE uses the SRI PUSCH PowerControlId value of an SRI field value corresponding to each TRP, and a value of P0 is determined from SRI PUSCH PowerControl.

If a value of the field is equal to “1”, the UE determines a value of P0 based on the first value in the P0 PUSCH set, where the P0 PUSCH SetId value is mapped to an SRI field value corresponding to each TRP.

If the DCI does not have two SRI fields, an existing field (1 or 2 bits) is used for OLPC set indication and a second p0-PUSCH-SetList-r16.

If a value of the field is equal to “0” or “00”, the UE determines P0 values of two TRPs (where each TRP corresponds to one P0 value) from the first and second default P0 values.

If a value of the field is equal to “1” or “01”, the UE determines P0 values of two TRPs (where each TRP corresponds to one P0 value) from the first value in the first P0-PUSCH-Set-r16_list and the first value in the second P0-PUSCH-Set-r16_list.

If a value of the field is equal to “10” or “11”, the UE determines P0 values of two TRPs (where each TRP corresponds to one P0 value) from the second value in the first P0-PUSCH-Set-r16_list and the second value in the second P0-PUSCH-Set-r16_list.

PUSCH CLI: For PUCCH and PUSCH, the second TPC field may be configured for the RRC. Each TPC field is used for one CLI value.

(4) PUCCH PC Parameters

Frequency range FR2: supporting the association of different PUCCH spatial relation info and different PC parameters, for determining PC parameters of different TRPs. When the MAC CE indicates the spatial relation for the PUCCH, the PC parameter in spatial relation info can be determined.

FR1: supporting two PC parameter sets, for different TRPs. Each set has p0, pathloss RS ID, and a closed-loop index. The PC parameter set may be considered as spatial relation info. When the MAC CE indicates the spatial relation for the PUCCH, the PC parameter in spatial relation info can be determined, only referenceSignal in spatial relation info is omitted.

A new TCI framework is introduced, which may be referred to as a unified TCI framework, that is, the same beam indicated by the network using the MAC CE and/or DCI may be used for transmission with multiple channels, and this beam may also be referred to as a common beam.

The unified TCI framework includes two modes: joint TCI and separate TCI, and is configured based on RRC signaling of the network.

The network configures a TCI state pool state pool through the RRC signaling, and activates one or more TCI states using MAC CE commands. When the MAC CE activates a TCI state corresponding to one codepoint, the activated TCI state is directly applied to a target signal. When the MAC CE activates TCI states corresponding to multiple codepoints, the network then uses a TCI field in the DCI to indicate one codepoint, and a TCI state corresponding to the codepoint is applied to a target signal.

For joint TCI, each codepoint corresponds to one TCI state.

For separate TCI, each codepoint may correspond to one DL TCI state and one UL TCI state, or one DL TCI state, or one UL TCI state.

When the network uses the DCI for beam indication, DCI format 1_1/1_2 with DL configuration and DCI format 1_1/1_2 without DL configuration are supported.

Effective time of the TCI state indicated by Beam indication DCI (beam application time) is defined as the first slot that applies the indicated TCI, which is at least Y symbols after the last symbol indicated and confirmed by a joint or separate DL/UL beam.

PLRS in the power control parameters is configured by the network in the TCI state or is associated with the TCI state.

Other parameters (set: P0, alpha, close loop index) in the power control parameters are configured by the network and associated to the TCI state. The setting of each of PUCCH, PUSCH, and SRS is associated with the TCI state or is included in configuration information of each channel.

For a carrier aggregation (CA) scenario, the network indicates common QCL information and/or a common UL TX spatial filter for cross-group configuration of CC.

4. Source RS of TCI State

DL: CSI-RS for beam management, CSI-RS is for tracking.

UL: SSB, CSI-RS for beam management, CSI-RS for tracking, and SRS for beam management.

5. Target Signal of TCI State

DL: (UE-dedicated reception on PDSCH, UE-dedicated reception on all core sets or subsets, non-periodic CSI-RS resource for CSI, non-periodic CSI-RS resource for BM, DMR associated with non-UE-dedicated reception on the core set, and associated PDSCH (associated with serving cell PCI)).

UL: dynamic grant/configured grant-based PUSCH, all dedicated PUCCH resources, non-periodic SRS resource or resource set of BM, antenna switching SRS, codebook SRS, and non-codebook SRS.

The following describes in detail a power control method provided in the embodiments of this application through some embodiments and application scenarios thereof with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 2, an embodiment of this application provides a power control method, including the following steps:

Step 21: A terminal receives first signaling sent by a network-side device.

Step 22: The terminal determines at least two pieces of beam information for uplink transmission based on the first signaling.

Optionally, the first signaling sent by the network-side device to the terminal may be used for the terminal to determine the at least two pieces of beam information for uplink transmission. For example, the determination of the at least two pieces of beam information for uplink transmission may be implemented on the network side, and the terminal may obtain the at least two pieces of beam information for uplink transmission based on the first signaling.

Optionally, the first signaling may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following information:

• • downlink control information;
  • a configured grant;
  • configuration information for physical uplink control channel;
  • configuration information for sounding reference signal;
  • a control resource set pool index; and
  • an uplink grant.

Optionally, the at least two pieces of beam information may be from one beam information set, or may be from different beam information sets respectively; and the beam information set may be configured based on RRC signaling.

The beam information includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: a TCI state, spatial information, a spatial filter, a reference signal (for example, a pathloss reference signal), an SRS resource, an antenna panel, an SRS resource set, a TCI state pool, a power control parameter set list, a TRP index, for example, a control resource set pool index (CoresetPoolindex), and a physical cell identifier (PCI).

The antenna panel may also be referred to as: an antenna group, an antenna port group, an antenna set, an antenna port set, a beam set, a beam subset, an antenna array, an antenna port array, an antenna subarray, an antenna port subarray, a logical entity, an entity, an antenna entity, a panel entity, a timing error group (TEG), a terminal capability value, a terminal capability value set, or the like.

An identifier of Panel may be: an antenna panel identifier, a reference signal resource identifier, a reference signal resource set identifier, a TCI state identifier, a QCL information identifier, a spatial relation identifier, a terminal capability value index, a terminal capability value set index, or the like.

Step 23: The terminal determines target transmission power of each piece of beam information on a corresponding uplink resource.

The target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource is the target transmission power determined for each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource.

Optionally, the uplink resource includes at least one of the following:

• • at least one consecutive orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) symbol in one slot corresponding to the beam information;
  • a nominal repetition corresponding to the beam information;
  • at least one spatial transport stream corresponding to the beam information;
  • at least one physical resource block (PRB) corresponding to the beam information, where the at least one physical resource block may be determined by at least one of a starting position of a bandwidth part (BWP), a starting position of an uplink transmission, and a quantity of consecutive physical resource blocks;
  • at least one consecutive physical resource block corresponding to the beam information;
  • a frequency-hopping resource corresponding to the beam information;
  • at least one subcarrier corresponding to the beam information, for example, one beam is transmitted on an odd-numbered subcarrier of a PUSCH frequency domain resource, and the other beam is transmitted on an even-numbered subcarrier of the PUSCH frequency domain resource;
  • a transmission occasion of an SRS corresponding to the beam information; and
  • a transmission occasion of a PUCCH corresponding to the beam information.

In the foregoing solution, the terminal receives first signaling sent by the network-side device, and determines at least two pieces of beam information for uplink transmission based on the first signaling. When there are at least two pieces of beam information for uplink transmission, target transmission power of each piece of beam information on a corresponding uplink resource can be determined, so that the current problem of no corresponding power control scheme for uplink transmission to support simultaneous transmission of multiple pieces of beam information can be resolved.

Optionally, that the terminal determines target transmission power of each piece of beam information on a corresponding uplink resource includes:

• • determining, by the terminal, first transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource based on power control parameter information corresponding to each piece of beam information; and determining maximum transmission power as the target transmission power, when the first transmission power is greater than the maximum transmission power.

The power control parameter information and the beam information are in a one-to-one correspondence. Optionally, the correspondence between the power control parameter information and the beam information may be configured through RRC signaling or indicated by MAC CE signaling.

Optionally, the power control parameter information includes at least one of a power control parameter set and a pathloss reference signal index, for example, a power control parameter set may include {p0, alpha, closeloopindex} and other parameters.

For example, in a case that one piece of beam information corresponds to one channel, power control parameter information corresponding to each piece of beam information is power control parameter information corresponding to the channel. The determining, by the terminal, first transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource based on power control parameter information corresponding to each piece of beam information includes: performing calculation based on the power control parameter information corresponding to the channel to obtain transmission power for uplink transmission, and determining the transmission power as the first transmission power.

In another example, in a case that two pieces of beam information correspond to one channel, each piece of beam information corresponds to one set of power control parameter information, the two pieces of beam information respectively correspond to different transmission resources of the channel, and the terminal obtains first transmission power respectively corresponding to the two pieces of beam information based on the power control parameter information and the different transmission resources.

In another example, in a case that one piece of beam information corresponds to at least two channels, power control parameter information corresponding to each piece of beam information includes: power control parameter information corresponding to each channel. The determining, by the terminal, first transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource based on power control parameter information corresponding to each piece of beam information includes: performing calculation based on the power control parameter information corresponding to each channel to obtain transmission power for uplink transmission on each channel, and determining a sum of transmission power for uplink transmission on all the channels as the first transmission power.

Optionally, in a case that the terminal performs calculation based on power control parameter information corresponding to each piece of beam information to obtain first transmission power corresponding to the beam information, if the first transmission power is less than or equal to maximum transmission power, the first transmission power is determined as the target transmission power; or if the first transmission power is greater than maximum transmission power, the maximum transmission power is determined as the target transmission power, so that uplink transmission power corresponding to each piece of beam information is limited to the maximum transmission power.

Optionally, the maximum transmission power is maximum transmission power configured for each piece of beam information of the terminal; or the maximum transmission power is determined based on a first parameter, and a sum of maximum transmission power corresponding to the at least two pieces of beam information is less than or equal to the first parameter.

The first parameter is one of the following:

• • maximum output power configured for each cell;
  • a sum of maximum output power of the at least two pieces of beam information configured for each cell; and
  • maximum output power configured for simultaneous transmission of the at least two pieces of beam information of each cell.

In other words, the first parameter is maximum output power configured for each cell; or the first parameter is a sum of maximum output power of the at least two pieces of beam information configured for each cell; or the first parameter is maximum output power configured for simultaneous transmission of the at least two pieces of beam information of each cell.

For example, the terminal may obtain the maximum transmission power corresponding to each piece of beam information by allocating the first parameter proportionally to the at least two pieces of beam information or in another manner. This is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

Optionally, that the terminal determines target transmission power of each piece of beam information on a corresponding uplink resource includes:

• • determining, by the terminal, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of a first object, where the first object includes: at least one of the beam information and a transmission resource;
  • or
  • determining, by the terminal, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of a second object, where the second object includes: at least one of the beam information, a carrier, and the transmission resource.

The transmission resource includes, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: a channel, a signal, or different transmission occasions of one channel.

For example, in a single carrier scenario, the terminal may perform power allocation based on a priority of beam information and a priority order of a transmission resource, to determine target transmission power of each piece of beam information on an uplink resource corresponding to the beam information. That power allocation is performed based on the priority of the beam information and the priority order of the transmission resource includes: performing power allocation based on the priority order of the beam information, performing power allocation based on the priority order of the transmission resource, first performing power allocation based on the priority order of the beam information and then performing power allocation based on the priority order of the transmission resource, first performing power allocation based on the priority order of the transmission resource and then performing power allocation based on the priority order of the beam information, or the like. This is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

In another example, in a carrier aggregation scenario, in addition to performing power allocation based on a priority of beam information and a priority order of a transmission resource, the terminal may also perform power allocation based on a priority order of a carrier, to determine target transmission power of each piece of beam information on an uplink resource corresponding to the beam information. That power allocation is performed based on the priority of the beam information, the priority of the transmission resource, and the priority order of the carrier may include: performing power allocation based on one of the priority of the beam information, the priority of the transmission resource, and the priority of the carrier, performing power allocation based on two of the priority of the beam information, the priority of the transmission resource, and the priority of the carrier, for example, when power allocation is performed based on two of the above, an order of these two may be AB or BA, as described in the foregoing embodiment, or performing power allocation based on the priority of the beam information, the priority of the transmission resource, and the priority of the carrier, where an order may be ABC, ACB, BAC, BCA, CAB, or CBA. This is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

Optionally, the determining, by the terminal, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of a first object includes:

• • determining, by the terminal, first transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource based on power control parameter information corresponding to each piece of beam information, where the power control parameter information and the beam information are in a one-to-one correspondence, for example, the correspondence between the power control parameter information and the beam information may be configured through RRC signaling or indicated by MAC CE signaling. This is not limited in the embodiments of this application; and
  • determining, by the terminal in a case that the first transmission power is greater than maximum transmission power, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of the first object.

For example, in a single carrier scenario, calculation may be performed based on power control parameter information corresponding to each piece of beam information to obtain first transmission power for uplink transmission. If first transmission power for a certain piece of beam information is greater than maximum transmission power, power allocation is performed for the beam information, so that uplink transmission power of the beam information after power allocation is less than or equal to the maximum transmission power.

Optionally, the maximum transmission power is maximum transmission power configured for each piece of beam information of the terminal; or the maximum transmission power is determined based on a first parameter, and a sum of maximum transmission power corresponding to the at least two pieces of beam information is less than or equal to the first parameter.

The first parameter is maximum output power configured for each cell; or the first parameter is a sum of maximum output power of the at least two pieces of beam information configured for each cell; or the first parameter is maximum output power configured for simultaneous transmission of the at least two pieces of beam information of each cell.

Optionally, the maximum transmission power configured for each piece of beam information of the terminal needs to meet at least one of the following conditions:

• • maximum power correspondingly measured for each piece of beam information is within a predetermined range;
  • a maximum value of maximum power correspondingly measured for all pieces of beam information is within a predetermined range; and
  • a minimum value of maximum power correspondingly measured for all pieces of beam information is within a predetermined range.

Optionally, the determining, by the terminal in a case that the first transmission power is greater than maximum transmission power, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of the first object includes:

• • determining, by the terminal in a case that the first transmission power is greater than the maximum transmission power, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of the transmission resource.

For example, if first transmission power obtained through calculation based on power control parameter information corresponding to a certain piece of beam information is greater than maximum transmission power, power allocation may be performed based on a priority order of a transmission resource, until uplink transmission power corresponding to the beam information is less than or equal to the maximum transmission power. Using an example in which the transmission resource is a channel for description, a beam corresponds to a channel 1, a channel 2, and a channel 3, and priorities of the channel 1, the channel 2, and the channel 3 decrease gradually, that is, power allocation is performed one by one in the order of the channel 1, the channel 2, and the channel 3. If total transmission power corresponding to the beam information exceeds the maximum transmission power when power is allocated to a channel (for example, the channel 3), the channel 3 may be discarded. Optionally, the power headroom may be reserved for power allocation of other channel information, or transmission power of the channel 3 may be reduced until total transmission power corresponding to the beam information is less than or equal to the maximum transmission power. In addition, power allocation may be performed based on the maximum transmission power, for example, if total transmission power corresponding to multiple channels exceeds the maximum transmission power, the maximum transmission power may be allocated to each channel proportionally; or transmission power of some or all channels may be reduced by a portion, so that total transmission power corresponding to the beam information is less than or equal to the maximum transmission power. This is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

Optionally, in a case that beam information corresponds to at least two channels, power control parameter information corresponding to the beam information may include power control parameter information corresponding to each channel. For a specific manner of determining the first transmission power, refer to the foregoing embodiment. To avoid repetition, details are not described herein again.

Optionally, the determining, by the terminal, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of a first object includes:

• • determining, by the terminal, first transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource based on power control parameter information corresponding to each piece of beam information, where the power control parameter information and the beam information are in a one-to-one correspondence; and
  • determining, by the terminal in a case that a sum of first transmission power of the at least two pieces of beam information is greater than a second parameter, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of the first object.

Optionally, in a case that beam information corresponds to one channel, power control parameter information corresponding to the beam information is power control parameter information corresponding to the channel; and in a case that beam information corresponds to at least two channels, power control parameter information corresponding to the beam information may include power control parameter information corresponding to each channel. For a specific manner of determining the first transmission power, refer to the foregoing embodiment. To avoid repetition, details are not described herein again.

For example, in a single carrier scenario, the terminal may perform power allocation based on a priority of beam information and a priority order of a transmission resource, so that a sum of target transmission power of all pieces of beam information on uplink resources corresponding to the beam information is less than the second parameter. That power allocation is performed based on the priority of the beam information and the priority order of the transmission resource may include: performing power allocation based on one of the priority of the beam information and the priority of the transmission resource, first performing power allocation based on the priority order of the beam information and then performing power allocation based on a signal or a priority order of the signal, first performing power allocation based on the priority order of the transmission resource and then performing power allocation based on the priority order of the beam information, or the like. This is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

For example, in a case that a sum of first transmission power corresponding to all pieces of beam information is greater than a second parameter, power allocation may be performed sequentially based on a priority order of the beam information, until a sum of first transmission power corresponding to all pieces of beam information is less than or equal to the second parameter. For example, a priority of beam information is determined based on a beam information index or a coresetPoolIndex value, for example, a small index corresponds to a high priority. In addition, the manner of performing power allocation based on the priority of the transmission resource may be similar to the manner of performing power allocation based on the priority of the beam information. Details are not described herein again.

In another example, in a case that a sum of first transmission power corresponding to all pieces of beam information is greater than a second parameter, power allocation may be first performed sequentially based on a priority order of a transmission resource. If the sum is still greater than the second parameter after the power allocation performed based on the priority of the transmission resource, power allocation may be further performed sequentially based on a priority order of beam information, until a sum of first transmission power corresponding to all pieces of beam information is less than or equal to the second parameter. In addition, the manner of performing power allocation in the order of first the priority of the beam information and then the priority of the transmission resource may be similar to the foregoing manner of power allocation. For example, multiple pieces of beam information include beam information 1, beam information 2, and beam information 3, and priorities of the beam information 1, the beam information 2, and the beam information 3 decrease gradually. When total transmission power of the multiple pieces of beam information exceeds a second parameter, power allocation may be performed one by one in the order of the beam information 1, the beam information 2, and the beam information 3. If total transmission power exceeds the second parameter when power is allocated to a piece of beam information (for example, the beam information 3), the beam information 3 may be discarded, or transmission power of the beam information 3 may be reduced until total transmission power is less than or equal to the second parameter (optionally, for the manner of reducing the transmission power of the beam information 3, refer to the foregoing embodiment of power allocation of single beam information). In addition, power allocation may be performed based on the second parameter, for example, if total transmission power corresponding to multiple pieces of beam information exceeds the second parameter, the second parameter may be allocated to each piece of beam information proportionally; or transmission power of some or all pieces of beam information may be reduced by a portion (optionally, for the manner of reducing the transmission power of the beam information, refer to the foregoing embodiment of power allocation of single beam information), so that total transmission power corresponding to the multiple pieces of beam information is less than or equal to the second parameter. This is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

Optionally, in a case that uplink transmission power for each piece of beam information is less than or equal to the maximum transmission power, it may be further considered that a sum of uplink transmission power for all pieces of beam information is less than or equal to the second parameter, so that target transmission power of each piece of beam information is limited to maximum output power, and a sum of uplink transmission power for all pieces of beam information is limited to the second parameter; or in a case that a sum of uplink transmission power for all pieces of beam information is less than or equal to the second parameter, it may be further considered that uplink transmission power for each piece of beam information is less than or equal to the maximum transmission power, so that target transmission power of each piece of beam information is limited to maximum output power, and a sum of uplink transmission power for all pieces of beam information is limited to the second parameter.

Optionally, the second parameter is one of the following:

• • maximum output power configured for each cell;
  • a sum of maximum output power of the at least two pieces of beam information configured for each cell; and
  • maximum output power configured for simultaneous transmission of the at least two pieces of beam information of each cell.

In other words, the second parameter is maximum output power configured for each cell; or the second parameter is a sum of maximum output power of the at least two pieces of beam information configured for each cell; or the second parameter is maximum output power configured for simultaneous transmission of the at least two pieces of beam information of each cell.

Optionally, the determining, by the terminal, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of a second object includes:

• • determining, by the terminal, first transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource based on power control parameter information corresponding to each piece of beam information, where the power control parameter information and the beam information are in a one-to-one correspondence; and
  • determining, by the terminal in a case that the first transmission power is greater than a third parameter, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of the second object.

Optionally, in a case that beam information corresponds to one channel, power control parameter information corresponding to the beam information is power control parameter information corresponding to the channel; and in a case that beam information corresponds to at least two channels, power control parameter information corresponding to the beam information may include power control parameter information corresponding to each channel. For a specific manner of determining the first transmission power, refer to the foregoing embodiment. To avoid repetition, details are not described herein again.

Optionally, the determining, by the terminal in a case that the first transmission power is greater than a third parameter, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of the second object includes:

• • determining, by the terminal in a case that the first transmission power is greater than the third parameter, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of at least one of the carrier and the transmission resource.

For example, in a carrier aggregation scenario, it is allowed that when multiple pieces of beam information associated with uplink transmission are configured on at least one carrier, for each piece of beam information, power allocation may be performed based on the priority order of the carrier, power allocation may be performed based on the priority order of the transmission resource, power allocation may be performed first based on the priority order of the carrier and power allocation may be performed then based on the priority order of a signal or a priority order of the signal, power allocation may be performed first based on the priority order of the transmission resource and power allocation may be performed then based on the priority order of the carrier, or the like. This is not limited in the embodiments of this application. A specific implementation is similar to that in the foregoing embodiment, and details are not described herein again.

Optionally, the third parameter includes at least one of the following:

• • a sum of maximum transmission power of one piece of beam information on a plurality of carriers that is configured by the terminal; and
  • a sum of maximum transmission power of the at least two pieces of beam information on one carrier that is configured by the terminal.

Optionally, the third parameter is determined based on one of the following:

• • an uplink grant associated with each piece of beam information in a plurality of carriers in a carrier aggregation scenario; and
  • an uplink grant of the plurality of carriers.

In other words, the third parameter is determined based on an uplink grant associated with each piece of beam information in a plurality of carriers in a carrier aggregation scenario; or the third parameter is determined based on an uplink grant of the plurality of carriers.

Optionally, the determining, by the terminal, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of a second object includes:

• • determining, by the terminal, first transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource based on power control parameter information corresponding to each piece of beam information, where the power control parameter information and the beam information are in a one-to-one correspondence; and
  • determining, by the terminal in a case that a sum of first transmission power of the at least two pieces of beam information is greater than a fourth parameter, the target transmission power of each piece of beam information on the corresponding uplink resource, based on performing power allocation in priority order of the second object.

Optionally, in a case that beam information corresponds to one channel, power control parameter information corresponding to the beam information is power control parameter information corresponding to the channel; and in a case that beam information corresponds to at least two channels, power control parameter information corresponding to the beam information may include power control parameter information corresponding to each channel. For a specific manner of determining the first transmission power, refer to the foregoing embodiment. To avoid repetition, details are not described herein again.

For example, in a carrier aggregation scenario, it is allowed that when multiple pieces of beam information associated with uplink transmission are configured on at least one carrier, for the multiple pieces of beam information, the terminal may perform power allocation based on the priority of the beam information, the priority of the transmission resource, and the priority order of the carrier, which may specifically include: performing power allocation based on one of the priority of the beam information, the priority of the transmission resource, and the priority of the carrier, performing power allocation based on two of the priority of the beam information, the priority of the transmission resource, and the priority of the carrier, for example, when power allocation is performed based on two of the above, an order of these two may be AB or BA, as described in the foregoing embodiment, or performing power allocation based on the priority of the beam information, the priority of the transmission resource, and the priority of the carrier, where an order may be ABC, ACB, BAC, BCA, CAB, or CBA. This is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

For example, in a multi-carrier (CC) scenario, in a case that uplink transmission power for each piece of beam information is less than or equal to the maximum transmission power, it may be further considered that a sum of uplink transmission power for all pieces of beam information is less than or equal to the second parameter, so that target transmission power of each piece of beam information is limited to maximum output power, and a sum of uplink transmission power for all pieces of beam information is limited to the second parameter; or in a case that a sum of uplink transmission power for all pieces of beam information is less than or equal to the second parameter, it may be further considered that uplink transmission power for each piece of beam information is less than or equal to the maximum transmission power, so that target transmission power of each piece of beam information is limited to maximum output power, and a sum of uplink transmission power for all pieces of beam information is limited to the second parameter.

Optionally, the fourth parameter is one of the following:

• • a sum of maximum transmission power of a plurality of carriers in a carrier aggregation scenario that is configured by the terminal;
  • a sum of maximum transmission power of the at least two pieces of beam information on the plurality of carriers that is configured by the terminal; and
  • maximum output power configured by the terminal for simultaneous transmission of the at least two pieces of beam information on the plurality of carriers.

In other words, the fourth parameter is a sum of maximum transmission power of a plurality of carriers in a carrier aggregation scenario that is configured by the terminal; or the fourth parameter is a sum of maximum transmission power of the at least two pieces of beam information on the plurality of carriers that is configured by the terminal; or the fourth parameter is maximum output power configured by the terminal for simultaneous transmission of the at least two pieces of beam information on the plurality of carriers.

For example, in a scenario in which multiple carriers or carrier aggregation is configured for single-CC, one piece of beam information may be transmitted correspondingly on all the multiple carriers. In this case, a sum of transmission power on the multiple carriers may exceed maximum transmission power. The terminal needs to select a channel with a high priority according to a priority rule to continue transmission, until a sum of transmission power is less than or equal to the maximum transmission power.

For example, power may be first allocated for each piece of beam information based on a priority of each transmission resource, and then power is allocated based on a priority of the beam information.

Step 1: For each piece of beam information, the terminal allocates power based on a priority of a transmission resource, until total transmission power corresponding to the beam information is less than a first parameter. For each piece of beam information, when total transmit power (that is, a sum of transmit power of all channels/signals on multiple carriers) corresponding to the beam information exceeds a first parameter, the terminal performs power allocation on a transmission resource transmitted on the beam information. The first parameter is a sum of maximum transmit power corresponding to all the carriers that is configured by the terminal for one piece of beam information.

Step 2 (optional): When a sum of transmit power corresponding to all pieces of beam information exceeds a second parameter, the terminal then allocates power based on a priority of the beam information, until total transmit power of the terminal is less than the second parameter. The second parameter is a sum of maximum transmit power of multiple carriers that is configured by the terminal, or the second parameter is a sum of maximum transmit power of multiple pieces of beam information of multiple carriers that is configured by the terminal.

Optionally, the priority of the beam information may be predefined, for example, a priority of the first piece of beam information is the highest. Optionally, the priority of the beam information may be carried by the beam information. This is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

In another example, for all pieces of beam information, power may be allocated first based on the priority of the transmission resource, and then power allocation may be performed for each piece of beam information.

Step 1: When total transmit power of the terminal exceeds a third parameter, the terminal allocates power based on a priority of a transmission resource. The third parameter is a sum of maximum transmit power of multiple pieces of beam information of multiple carriers that is configured by the terminal or a sum of maximum transmit power of multiple carriers that is configured by the terminal.

Step 2: For a transmission resource associated with two pieces of beam information, the terminal allocates power based on a priority of the beam information, until total transmission power corresponding to the beam information is less than a fourth parameter. The fourth parameter is maximum transmission power for simultaneous transmission of multiple pieces of beam information on one carrier that is configured by the terminal.

The terminal performs the foregoing two steps until total transmit power is less than or equal to the third parameter.

Optionally, the priority of the beam information may be predefined, for example, a priority of the first piece of beam information is the highest. Optionally, the priority of the beam information may be carried by the beam information.

Optionally, the power control method further includes: sending, by the terminal, first information to the network-side device, where the first information is for determining power headroom.

Optionally, the first information includes at least one of the following:

• • maximum transmission power corresponding to each piece of beam information;
  • maximum transmission power for simultaneous transmission of the at least two pieces of beam information;
  • power headroom corresponding to each piece of beam information; and
  • power headroom for simultaneous transmission of the at least two pieces of beam information.

The following describes in detail the power control method provided in the embodiments of this application through some embodiments and application scenarios thereof.

Example 1: SDCI Space Division Multiplexing (SDM)/Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM)/Single Frequency Network (SFN) Scheme (Considering PUCCH)

Redefine the concept of TO i:

$P_{\mathrm{PUSCH},b,f,c}\left(i,j,q_d,l\right)=\min \left\{\begin{array}{c}{P}_{\mathrm{CMAX},f,c}\left(i\right),\\ \begin{array}{c}{P}_{O\_\mathrm{PUSCH},b,f,c}\left(j\right)+\\ 10{\log }_{10}\left(2^{\mu }·M_{\mathrm{RB},b,f,c}^{\mathrm{PUSCH}}\left(i\right)\right)+\\ {\alpha }_{b,f,c}\left(j\right)·{\mathrm{PL}}_{b,f,c}\left(q_d\right)+\\ {\Delta }_{\mathrm{TF},b,f,c}\left(i\right)+f_{b,f,c}\left(i,l\right)\end{array}\end{array}\right\}$

PUSCH resource that is associated with one TCI state/panel (which may be, for example, a time-frequency spatial domain resource)

Pcmax per panel/TCI is implemented, and i includes the panel variable.

There is no need to additionally define Pcmax for simultaneous transmission of two panels:

Pcmax may be understood as the definition of per beam or per panel, and the measurement metrics are also for one beam/panel.

Whether transmit power on multiple carrier units (Component Carrier, CC) exceeds Pmax in a carrier aggregation (CA) scenario is determined for per-panel, whether to drop or not is determined based on per-panel, and only half of the PUSCH may be transmitted under SDM/FDM (the drop behavior of legacy is from per-symbol, and may also result in incomplete transmission of the PUSCH).

It is necessary to additionally define Pcmax for simultaneous transmission of two panels on one CC:

Reuse Pcmax defined by one CC, and Pmax in the CA scenario does not need to be additionally defined.

Pmax in the CA scenario needs to redefine:

• • a sum of new Pcmax for simultaneous transmission of two panels on each CC;
  • Pcmax additionally defined based on per-CC, per-f, and per-panel; and
  • power backoff if a sum of transmit power corresponding to two TCI states exceeds Pcmax: simultaneous backoff or priority-based backoff, for example, Drop one.

Power reduction in the CA scenario:

• • first CC drop and then intra-CC drop/reduction; and
  • first intra-CC drop/reduction and then inter-CC drop.

Example 2: Unchanged Concept of TO i

Pcmax that supports per-panel

Pcmax requires the introduction of the TCI/panel variable

$P_{\mathrm{PUSCH}}=\min \{\begin{array}{c}{P}_{\mathrm{CMAX}}\left(i,p\right)\\ P_{0\left(j\right)}+\alpha \left(j\right)·\mathrm{PL}\left(q\right)+10·{\log }_{10}\left(2^{\mu }·M_{\mathrm{RB}}\left(i\right)\right)+{\Delta }_{\mathrm{TF}}+\delta \left(l\right)\end{array}$

P=0 or 1, p=0 corresponds to the first TCI of TO i, and p=1 corresponds to the second TCI of TO i;

Use the index of PL-RS:

$P_{\mathrm{PUSCH}}=\min \{\begin{array}{c}{P}_{\mathrm{CMAX}}\left(i,q\right)\\ P_{0\left(j\right)}+\alpha \left(j\right)·\mathrm{PL}\left(q\right)+10·{\log }_{10}\left(2^{\mu }·M_{\mathrm{RB}}\left(i\right)\right)+{\Delta }_{\mathrm{TF}}+\delta \left(l\right)\end{array}$

Two panels use the same Pcmax:

$P_{\mathrm{PUSCH}}=\min \{\begin{array}{c}{p}_{\mathrm{CMAX}}\left(i\right)\\ P_{0\left(j\right)}+\alpha \left(j\right)·\mathrm{PL}\left(q\right)+10·{\log }_{10}\left(2^{\mu }·M_{\mathrm{RB}}\left(i\right)\right)+{\Delta }_{\mathrm{TF}}+\delta \left(l\right)\end{array}$

Obtain transmit power of two panels of one TO through q

P0(j) or α(j)

For CG and retransmission of CG, the value is fixed when j=2, but P0/alpha is not the same for two panels:

Introduce P₀(j, por q)α(j, por q)

Define j=2 and 3 of CG

M_RB(i)

Under FDM, indicate the PRB number of PUSCH corresponding to TCI or PL(q)

There is no need to additionally define Pcmax for simultaneous transmission of two panels:

Pcmax may be understood as the definition of per beam or per panel, and the measurement metrics are also for one beam/panel.

Power reduction in the CA scenario:

• • calculate total power based on per-panel/TCI, and then drop based on a priority

It is necessary to additionally define Pcmax for simultaneous transmission of two panels on one CC:

• • define Pcmax defined by one CC; and

Pmax in the CA scenario does not need to be additionally defined.

Newly defined Pcmax:

• • Pmax in the CA scenario needs to redefine: a sum of new Pcmax for simultaneous transmission of two panels on each CC; and
  • Pcmax additionally defined based on per-CC, per-f, and per-panel.

Power backoff if a sum of transmit power corresponding to two TCI states exceeds Pcmax: simultaneous backoff or priority-based backoff, for example, Drop one.

Power reduction in the CA scenario:

• • first CC drop and then intra-CC drop/reduction.

Example 3: MDCI: Two PUSCH Overlap

No enhancement is required when Pmax for simultaneous transmission of two panels is not defined; and backoff is calculated based on per-TRP in a CA scenario.

Define Pmax for simultaneous transmission of two panels:

Define rules when a power sum of two PUSCHs exceeds Pcmax:

Rule 1: Drop one PUSCH based on a priority, for example, drop the CORESETPoolIndex 1 associated PUSCH.

Rule 2: Transmit two PUSCHs for power backoff.

One of the PUSCHs performs power backoff until total power is within Pcmax;

both two PUSCHs perform backoff;

backoff in equal proportion based on P0;

backoff in equal proportion based on total transmit power; and

first intra-CC and then inter-CC in the CA scenario.

Example 4: when this Pcmax Transmit Power is Exceeded, Reduction is Performed Based on a Priority

In a CA scenario, define the priority based on per scheme:

• • SDM divides power equally;
  • the exceeded part is divided into two parts for backoff separately;
  • FDM prioritizes the first panel;
  • MDCI PUSCH overlap, the priority defines a priority indicator; and
  • the panel is distinguished through i or q or j for per-panel power control.
