REDUCTION OF PATH LOSS (PL) REFERENCE SIGNAL (RS) APPLICATION TIME

Abstract:

Aspects of the present disclosure provide apparatus, methods, processing systems, and computer readable mediums for reducing path loss reference signal (PL RS) application time. An example method generally includes receiving signaling indicating activation of path loss (PL) reference signals (RSs), determining that the UE can reduce an application time for using the PL RS for uplink power control purposes, wherein the reduced application time is reduced relative to a non-reduced application time, and using PL RS measurements taken according to the reduced application time for uplink power control.
