MANAGING TRANSMIT POWER CONTROL

Abstract:

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for managing transmit power control. In one aspect, a wireless device may receive a message including a path loss value and may transmit a signal to a UL Rx point using an uplink transmit power associated with the received path loss value. In another aspect, a wireless device may receive a reference signal, and a message including an offset value, and may transmit a signal to a UL Rx point using an uplink transmit power including a downlink path loss value associated with the reference signal minus the offset value. In another aspect, a base station may obtain a power measurement of a signal from a wireless device and may send to the wireless device a path loss value associated with the received power measurement, or an offset value associated with the received power measurement
