Uplink power control via MAC-CE messaging

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Techniques described herein may provide power control configuration parameters using MAC-CE messaging. A base station may transmit a MAC-CE message that includes a power control configuration identifier. The UE may identify a power control configuration according to the power control configuration identifier. The power control configuration may include one or more power control parameters and a path loss reference signal identifier. The UE may update the path loss reference signal for an uplink transmission based on the received MAC-CE message and adjust power for performance of the uplink transmission according to one or more measurements of the updated path loss reference signal.
