However, this is not the only possibility.

[0120] In one example, the multiple information includes a sensing reference signal, and the receiving device 103 can be a device for receiving multiple information.

[0121] In some embodiments, the various information includes a sensing reference signal.

The target device is a device that needs to be sensed and located, including but not limited to environmental IoT devices, IoT devices, and autonomous driving devices.

[0122] It is understood that the communication system described in this disclosure is for the purpose of more clearly illustrating the technical solutions of this disclosure, and does not constitute a limitation on the technical solutions proposed in this disclosure. As those skilled in the art will know, with the evolution of system architecture and the emergence of new business scenarios, the technical solutions proposed in this disclosure are also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0123] The following embodiments of this disclosure can be applied to the communication system 100 shown in FIG1, or to some of the main bodies, but are not limited thereto. The main bodies shown in FIG1 are illustrative. The communication system may include all or some of the main bodies in FIG1, or may include other main bodies outside of FIG1. ​​The number and form of each main body are arbitrary. Each main body may be physical or virtual. The connection relationship between the main bodies is illustrative. The main bodies may not be connected or may be connected. The connection can be in any way, it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection, it can be a wired connection or a wireless connection.

[0124] The embodiments disclosed herein can be applied to Long Term Evolution (LTE), LTE-Advanced (LTE-A), LTE-Beyond (LTE-B), SUPER 3G, IMT-Advanced, 4th generation mobile communication system (4G), 5th generation mobile communication system (5G), 5G new radio (NR), Future Radio Access (FRA), New-Radio Access Technology (RAT), New Radio (NR), New radio access (NX), Future generation radio access (FX), Global System for Mobile communications (GSM), CDMA2000, Ultra Mobile Broadband (UMB), IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi), IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX), and IEEE 802.20, Ultra-Wideband (UWB), Bluetooth (a registered trademark), Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) networks, Device-to-Device (D2D) systems, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) systems, Internet of Things (IoT) systems, Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) systems, systems utilizing other communication methods, and next-generation systems built upon them, etc. Furthermore, multiple systems can be combined (e.g., a combination of LTE or LTE-A with 5G).

[0125] In some embodiments, in the Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) technology, the sensing transmitter needs to send a sensing reference signal (sensing RS), and the sensing receiver receives the sensing RS and performs sensing analysis on the sensing RS to determine information such as the position, speed, and angle of a specified object.

[0126] In some embodiments, for ISAC technology, a new signal can be introduced, which can be called a sensing reference signal. The sensing reference signal can have a corresponding time-frequency domain pattern. Of course, the time-domain resources occupied by the sensing reference signal need to be considered to avoid existing synchronization signals or reference signals.

[0127] In some embodiments, for ISAC technology, existing uplink or downlink signals can be reused or enhanced, such as reusing Channel State Information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS), Synchronization Signal / PBCH Block (SSB), Positioning Reference Signal (PRS), etc., and using these signals to achieve sensing functions.

[0128] In some embodiments, when a terminal transmits uplink channels or uplink signals on multiple carriers, the transmission portions between different carriers will overlap because the multiple carriers configured by the terminal have different subcarrier spacings (numerologies). If the terminal transmits these uplink signals on multiple carriers simultaneously, the total transmission power of the terminal will exceed the terminal's capacity.

[0129] In some embodiments, when the sensing RS is used as a new reference signal, the sensing mode is that the terminal 101 sends the sensing RS, and the terminal 101 sends the sensing RS on one carrier and the uplink signal sent on other carriers overlaps in the time domain, if multiple signals are sent on multiple carriers at the same time according to the original determined transmission power of each signal, there will be a situation that exceeds the terminal's capacity.

[0130] To improve the availability and reliability of multicarrier communication, this disclosure provides the following methods, terminals, communication devices, and storage media for controlling power.

[0131] Figure 2 is an interactive schematic diagram of a power control method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 2, the present disclosure relates to a power control method, which includes:

[0132] In step S2101, terminal 101 determines the first power value.

[0133] In some embodiments, the first power value is the sum of the power values ​​of the various types of information transmitted by the terminal 101.

[0134] In some embodiments, terminal 101 may transmit various types of information via one or more carriers.

[0135] In some embodiments, terminal 101 can determine a first power value when the transmission of multiple types of information overlaps in the time domain.

[0136] In some embodiments, Among them, P i It is the transmission power value of terminal 101 on carrier #i, and M is the number of carriers.

[0137] In some embodiments, various types of information may include, but are not limited to, signals and / or channels, specifically including, but not limited to, at least one of the following: sensing reference signal; CSI-RS; Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH); Physical Uplink Channel; Sounding Reference Signal (SRS).

[0138] In one example, the PRACH may include at least one of the PRACH of the primary cell and the PRACH of the secondary cell.

[0139] In one example, the physical uplink channel may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH); Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH).

[0140] In one example, the physical uplink channel may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: a first type of physical uplink channel; a second type of physical uplink channel; or a third type of physical uplink channel.

[0141] For example, the first type of physical uplink channel can be a physical uplink channel carrying first uplink control information (UCI). The first UCI includes a Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) result and / or a Scheduling Request (SR). The HARQ result can be an Acknowledgement (ACK) or a Negative Acknowledgement (NACK). For instance, the first type of physical uplink channel can be a PUCCH / PUSCH carrying ACK or NACK, and / or a PUCCH / PUSCH carrying SR (i.e., PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR).

[0142] For example, the second type of physical uplink channel is a physical uplink channel carrying a second UCI. The second UCI does not include HARQ results or SR. The HARQ result can be ACK or NACK. For instance, the second type of physical uplink channel can be a PUCCH / PUSCH carrying other UCIs (i.e., PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs).

[0143] For example, other UCIs may include, but are not limited to, carrying a Link Recovery Request (LRR) and / or CSI information, wherein the CSI information may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the following: Channel Quality Indicator (CQI); Pre-coding matrix Indication (PMI); CSI-RS resource indicator (CRI); SS / PBCH Block Resource Indicator (SSBRI); Layer Indicator (LI); Rank Indicator (RI); Layer 1 Reference Signal Receiving Power (L1-RSRP); Layer 1 Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (L1-SINR).

[0144] For example, the third type of physical uplink channel is a physical uplink channel without UCI. For instance, the third type of physical uplink channel can be a PUCCH or PUSCH without UCI (i.e., PUCCH / PUSCH without (w / o) UCI).

[0145] In some embodiments, the number of each type of information may be one or more, and this disclosure does not limit this.

[0146] For example, various types of information include: sensing reference signal #1, sensing reference signal #2, SRS, and PUSCH.

[0147] In some embodiments, the name of the first power value is not limited and can be interchanged with "sum of transmitted power", "total transmitted power value", "desired total power value", etc.

[0148] In step S2102, terminal 101 determines that the first power value is greater than the second power value.

[0149] In some embodiments, the second power value is the maximum transmit power value supported by the terminal 101.

[0150] In some embodiments, the second power value may be determined based on the terminal capability.

[0151] In some embodiments, the second power value may be represented as PTmax.

[0152] In some embodiments, the name of the second power value is not limited and can be interchanged with "maximum transmit power value", "power control threshold value", etc.

[0153] In step S2103, terminal 101 determines one or more pieces of first information.

[0154] In some embodiments, if the first power value is greater than the second power value, the terminal 101 determines one or more pieces of first information.

[0155] In some embodiments, the power control operations described above include, but are not limited to, any of the following: reducing transmission power; not transmitting.

[0156] In some embodiments, the first information is one or more of a variety of information, for example, the first information is a sensing reference signal and SRS. As another example, the first information is a sensing reference signal.

[0157] In some embodiments, the number of first information can be one or more. For example, if after performing power control operation on one of the first information, the sum of the power values ​​of sending multiple information (i.e., the third power value) is still greater than the second power value, then a new first information can be determined and power control operation can be performed on it until the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value.

[0158] The above is merely an illustrative example, and this disclosure does not limit the quantity or types of the first information.

[0159] In some embodiments, terminal 101 may determine the first information in the following manner:

[0160] Method 1 determines the first message based on the priority order of sending multiple messages.

[0161] In one example, to support single-carrier characteristics and reduce communication complexity, each carrier can be configured to transmit only one type of information at a time.

[0162] In one example, a priority order for sending various types of information is defined. Optionally, a priority value may not need to be defined for the sensing reference signal.

[0163] In one example, terminal 101 can determine one or more pieces of first information from multiple pieces of information according to a first rule.

[0164] The first rule is used to specify the priority order for sending various types of information.

[0165] For example, the first rule can be any of the following:

[0166] Option 1, sending the sensing reference signal has the highest priority.

[0167] Specifically, the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal is higher than the priority of transmitting the PRACH of the primary cell (PCell), and the priority of transmitting the PRACH of the PCell is higher than the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the SRS and the PRACH of the secondary cell (SCell). The PRACH of transmitting the SRS and the SCell have the same priority.

[0168] The order of priority for sending multiple types of information, as stipulated in the first rule, from highest to lowest, is as follows:

[0169] Sensing RS>PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0170] Option 2: The priority of transmitting the PRACH of the primary cell is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, and the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal is higher than the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel.

[0171] For example, the priority of transmitting the PRACH of the primary cell is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, and the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal is higher than the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the PRACH of SRS and SCell, wherein the PRACH of transmitting SRS and SCell has the same priority.

[0172] The order of priority for sending multiple types of information, as stipulated in the first rule, from highest to lowest, is as follows:

[0173] PRACH of PCell>Sensing RS>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0174] Option 3: The priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, and the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal is higher than the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel.

[0175] For example, the priority of transmitting the PRACH of the primary cell is higher than the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal. Furthermore, the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal is higher than the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel. Moreover, the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the PRACH of SRS and SCell, wherein the PRACH of SRS and SCell have the same priority.

[0176] The order of priority for sending multiple types of information, as stipulated in the first rule, from highest to lowest, is as follows:

[0177] PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>Sensing RS>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0178] Option 4: The priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, and the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal is higher than the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel.

[0179] For example, the priority of transmitting the PRACH of the primary cell is higher than the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, and the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal is higher than the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the PRACH of SRS and SCell, wherein the priority of transmitting the PRACH of SRS and SCell is the same.

[0180] The order of priority for sending multiple types of information, as stipulated in the first rule, from highest to lowest, is as follows:

[0181] PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>Sensing RS>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0182] Option 5: The priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal is higher than the priority of transmitting the SRS, and the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal is higher than the priority of transmitting the secondary cell's PRACH; wherein, the priority of transmitting the SRS is the same as the priority of transmitting the secondary cell's PRACH.

[0183] For example, the priority of transmitting the PRACH of the primary cell is higher than the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, and the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, and the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal is higher than the priority of transmitting the PRACH of SRS and SCell, wherein the priority of transmitting the PRACH of SRS and SCell is the same.

[0184] The order of priority for sending multiple types of information, as stipulated in the first rule, from highest to lowest, is as follows:

[0185] PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>Sensing RS>SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0186] Option 6, sending the sensing reference signal has the lowest priority.

[0187] For example, the priority of transmitting the PRACH of the primary cell is higher than the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, and the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the PRACH of SRS and SCell, and the priority of transmitting the PRACH of SRS and SCell is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, wherein the priority of transmitting the PRACH of SRS and SCell is the same.

[0188] The order of priority for sending multiple types of information, as stipulated in the first rule, from highest to lowest, is as follows:

[0189] PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell>Sensing RS.

[0190] Option 7: The priority for transmitting the sensing reference signal is the same as the priority for transmitting the SRS and the priority for transmitting the PRACH of the secondary cell.

[0191] For example, the priority of transmitting the PRACH of the primary cell is higher than the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, and the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel is higher than the priority of transmitting the PRACH of sensing reference information, SRS and SCell, wherein the priority of transmitting the PRACH of sensing reference information, SRS and SCell is the same.

[0192] The order of priority for sending multiple types of information, as stipulated in the first rule, from highest to lowest, is as follows:

[0193] PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>Sensing RS / SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0194] The above is merely an illustrative example, and this disclosure does not limit the specific content of the first rule.

[0195] In one example, terminal 101 determines one or more first pieces of information from among the various types of information, according to the priority order of sending multiple types of information in the first rule from low to high. That is, terminal 101 prioritizes the information with lower sending priority as the first information so that power control operations can be performed on the first information.

[0196] For example, if the first rule is option 7 above, and multiple pieces of information include Sensing RS, PUSCH w / o UCI, and PRACH of PCell, then terminal 101 can determine Sensing RS as the first piece of information according to the first rule.

[0197] Understandably, if the third power value is still greater than the second power value after performing power control operation on the Sensing RS, then terminal 101 can determine PUSCH without UCI as the first information. If the third power value is still greater than the second power value after performing power control operation on PUSCH without UCI, then terminal 101 can determine PRACH of PCell as the first information.

[0198] The aforementioned third power value is the sum of the transmission power values ​​of the terminal 101 after performing power control operations on one or more first information messages.

[0199] For example, terminal 101 transmits on two carriers, carrier #1 is a PCell carrier and transmits PRACH, and carrier #2 transmits sensing RS. PRACH and sensing RS overlap at time t. According to the first rule mentioned above, such as option 6, power control operation is performed on sensing RS until the total transmit power value of terminal 101 on carrier #1 and carrier #2 at the overlapping time t is less than PTmax.

[0200] For example, terminal 101 transmits on three carriers: carrier #1 transmits sensing RS, carrier #2 transmits SRS, and carrier #3 transmits PUCCH carrying HARQ. The three messages overlap at time t. According to the first rule mentioned above, assuming option 5, power control operation is first performed on SRS. If the third power value is still greater than the second power value, power control operation is then performed on sensing RS until the PTmax requirement is met.

[0201] In one example, terminal 101 determines, according to a first rule, that the first information includes at least one of a sensing reference signal and a second information, wherein the second information is a type of information that is different from the sensing reference signal among multiple types of information, and the priority of sending the second information is the same as the priority of sending the sensing reference signal. At this time, terminal 101 can continue to determine the first information from the sensing reference signal and the second information according to the second rule.

[0202] The number of types of the second information can be one or more. For example, the second information is SRS, and the first information includes at least one of sensing reference signal and SRS. Another example is that the second information is SRS or PRACH of the secondary cell, and the first information includes at least one of sensing reference signal, SRS and PRACH of the secondary cell.

[0203] For example, the second rule can be any of the following: the priority of sending non-periodic transmission information is higher than the priority of sending periodically transmission information; the priority of sending the sensing reference signal is the lowest; the priority of sending the sensing reference signal is the highest.

[0204] If the sensing reference signal is periodically transmitted information and the second information is non-periodic transmitted information, then based on the second rule, the priority of sending the second information can be determined to be higher than the priority of sending the sensing reference signal.

[0205] If the sensing reference signal is non-periodic transmitted information and the second information is periodically transmitted information, then based on the second rule, the priority of sending the sensing reference signal can be determined to be higher than the priority of sending the second information.

[0206] If both the sensing reference signal and the second information are non-periodic transmitted information, then the priority of sending the sensing reference signal can be determined as either the lowest or the highest based on the second rule.

[0207] If both the sensing reference signal and the second information are periodically transmitted information, then the priority of sending the sensing reference signal can be determined as either the lowest or the highest based on the second rule.

[0208] If the sensing reference signal is periodically transmitted information and the second information is non-periodic transmitted information, then the priority of sending the sensing reference signal can be determined as the lowest or highest based on the second rule.

[0209] If the sensing reference signal is non-periodic transmitted information and the second information is periodically transmitted information, then the priority of sending the sensing reference signal can be determined as the lowest or highest based on the second rule.

[0210] The above is merely an illustrative example, and this disclosure does not limit the content of the second rule.

[0211] Accordingly, in accordance with the second rule, the terminal 101 determines the information with lower transmission priority as the first information from the sensing reference signal and the second information.

[0212] For example, if the first rule is option 7 above, and the multiple information includes Sensing RS, SRS, and PRACH of PCell, then terminal 101 determines that the first information includes Sensing RS and / or SRS according to the first rule. At this time, terminal 101 can continue to determine the first information according to the second rule. Assuming the sensing reference signal is non-periodic transmitted information and the SRS is periodically transmitted information, then terminal 101 can determine that the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal is higher than the priority of transmitting the SRS. In this case, terminal 101 prioritizes determining the SRS as the first information.

[0213] Understandably, if the third power value is still greater than the second power value after power control operation is performed on the SRS, then terminal 101 can determine Sensing RS as the first information.

[0214] For example, if the first rule is option 7 above, and the multiple information includes Sensing RS, SRS, and PRACH of PCell, then terminal 101 determines that the first information includes Sensing RS and / or SRS according to the first rule. At this point, terminal 101 can continue to determine the first information according to the second rule. Terminal 101 can also determine that transmitting the sensing reference signal has the lowest priority according to the second rule, and in this case, terminal 101 prioritizes determining the sensing reference signal as the first information.

[0215] Understandably, if the third power value is still greater than the second power value after power control operation is performed on the sensing reference signal, then terminal 101 can determine SRS as the first information.

[0216] For example, if the first rule is option 7 above, and the multiple information includes Sensing RS, SRS, and PRACH of PCell, then terminal 101 determines that the first information includes Sensing RS and / or SRS according to the first rule. At this point, terminal 101 can continue to determine the first information according to the second rule. Terminal 101 can determine that transmitting the sensing reference signal has the highest priority according to the second rule, and in this case, terminal 101 prioritizes determining SRS as the first information.

[0217] It is understandable that if the third power value is still greater than the second power value after the power control operation is performed on the SRS, the terminal 101 can determine the sensing reference signal as the first information.

[0218] Method 2 determines the first message based on the priority value of sending multiple messages.

[0219] In one example, to support single-carrier characteristics and reduce communication complexity, each of the multiple carriers can support transmitting one type of information. That is, each carrier supports transmitting one type of information.

[0220] For example, a priority value can be defined for the sensing reference signal.

[0221] For example, two priority values ​​can be defined for the sensing reference signal, assuming they are 0 and 1, where the priority value of 0 is higher than the priority value of 1.

[0222] For example, multiple priority values ​​can be defined for the sensing reference signal, such as {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7}, with priority value 0 having the highest priority.

[0223] In one example, terminal 101 first determines the priority value of each type of information to be sent.

[0224] For example, if the various types of information include a sensing reference signal, the terminal 101 may determine the priority value for transmitting the sensing reference signal in the following manner:

[0225] In one approach, terminal 101 can determine the priority value for transmitting the sensing reference signal based on a predefined method.

[0226] In another approach, network device 102 may send configuration information to terminal 101, which may at least be used to configure the priority value for transmitting the sensing reference signal. Terminal 101 may determine the priority value for transmitting the sensing reference signal based on the configuration information.

[0227] The configuration information can be sent to terminal 101 via, but is not limited to, radio resource control signaling.

[0228] In another approach, network device 102 may send a first signaling message to terminal 101, which may at least indicate a priority value for transmitting a sensing reference signal. Terminal 101 may determine the priority value for transmitting the sensing reference signal based on the first signaling message.

[0229] The first signaling may include, but is not limited to, downlink control information (DCI).

[0230] When the first signaling is DCI, the DCI can also be used to trigger terminal 101 to send a sensing reference signal.

[0231] For example, terminal 101 can determine the priority values ​​for transmitting PUCCH carrying SR, CSI, PUCCH carrying HARQ results, PUSCH, SRS, and PRACH respectively, as shown in Table 1:

[0232] Table 1

[0233] The above is merely an illustrative example, and this disclosure does not limit the scheme by which the terminal 101 determines the priority value of sending various types of information.

[0234] Furthermore, terminal 101 can determine one or more first messages in descending order of priority value for each type of message.

[0235] Considering that the lower the priority value, the higher the priority, the terminal prioritizes information with higher priority values ​​as the first piece of information.

[0236] For example, if there are multiple pieces of information including sensing RS and PUSCH, with PUSCH having a priority value of 0 and sensing RS having a priority value of 1, then terminal 101 will prioritize sensing RS as the first piece of information.

[0237] In one example, if terminal 101 determines that the first information includes at least one of a sensing reference signal and a third information in descending order of priority value for each type of information, then terminal 101 can determine one or more pieces of the first information from the sensing reference signal and the third information based on a third rule. The third information is a type of information that differs from the sensing reference signal, and the priority value of the third information is equal to the priority value of the sensing reference signal.

[0238] For example, the number of types of third information may be one or more, and this disclosure does not limit this.

[0239] For example, if the priority values ​​of the sensing reference signal and the SRS are equal, then terminal 101 determines that the first information includes at least one of the sensing reference signal and the SRS.

[0240] For example, if the priority values ​​of the sensing reference signal, SRS, and secondary cell PRACH are equal, then terminal 101 determines that the first information includes at least one of the sensing reference signal, SRS, and secondary cell PRACH.

[0241] For example, the third rule can be any of the following: the priority of sending non-periodic transmission information is higher than the priority of sending periodic transmission information; the priority of sending the first carrier is higher than the priority of sending the second carrier; the priority of sending the first carrier is lower than the priority of sending the second carrier.

[0242] The first carrier is the carrier that transmits the sensing reference signal, and the second carrier is the carrier that transmits the third information.

[0243] For example, if information transmitted on multiple carriers has equal priority values, and one of the carriers transmits sensing RS, and the third rule is that the priority of transmitting the first carrier is higher than the priority of transmitting the second carrier, then the power value on the carrier transmitting sensing RS is not changed, the information on other carriers is determined as the first information, and power control operation is performed on the first information.

[0244] Specifically, for information on other carriers, the first information can be determined according to the fifth rule. The transmission priority specified by the fifth rule, from high to low, is as follows:

[0245] The priority of transmitting the first type of physical uplink channel is higher than that of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the second type of physical uplink channel is higher than that of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel, and the priority of transmitting the third type of physical uplink channel is higher than that of transmitting the PRACH for SRS and SCell. The priority of transmitting SRS is equal to that of transmitting the PRACH for SCell.

[0246] That is, PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0247] For example, if information transmitted on multiple carriers has equal priority values, and one of the carriers transmits a sensing RS, and the third rule is that the priority of transmitting the first carrier is lower than the priority of transmitting the second carrier, then terminal 101 will preferentially determine the sensing reference signal as the first information, that is, preferentially perform power control operation on the sensing RS. If the third power value is still greater than the second power value, then based on the fifth rule, the first information will be determined in order of transmission priority from low to high, and power control operation will be performed on the newly determined first information until the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value.

[0248] For example, multiple pieces of information include sensing reference signals, and the number of sensing reference signals is greater than 1. A priority value for each type of information is determined among the multiple pieces of information to be transmitted. If, according to the order of priority values ​​of each type of information being transmitted from high to low, it is determined that the first piece of information includes at least one of the multiple sensing reference signals, then terminal 101 can determine one or more pieces of first information among the multiple sensing reference signals based on a fourth rule.

[0249] The fourth rule can be: the priority of transmitting the third carrier is higher than the priority of transmitting the fourth carrier. Here, the third carrier is the primary cell carrier for transmitting the sensing reference signal, and the fourth carrier is the secondary cell carrier for transmitting the sensing reference signal.

[0250] It is understandable that there can be one or more fourth carriers, and multiple fourth carriers have the same priority.

[0251] For example, information transmitted on multiple carriers has equal priority values. The total number of carriers is M, of which N carriers transmit sensing RS. N and M are positive integers, and N≤M. Assuming that all N carriers are secondary cell carriers, the N sensing reference signals are preferentially determined as the first information. Power control operation is performed on the N sensing reference signals. If the third power value is still greater than the second power value, then based on the fifth rule, the first information is determined in descending order of transmission priority. Power control operation is performed on the newly determined first information until the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value.

[0252] For example, if information transmitted on multiple carriers has equal priority values, and the total number of carriers is M, where N carriers transmit sensing RS, N and M are positive integers and N≤M, and one of the N carriers is a primary cell carrier, then the sensing reference signals on (N-1) secondary cell carriers are prioritized as the first information. That is, the power value of the sensing RS signal transmitted on the primary cell carrier remains unchanged, and power control operation is preferentially performed on the sensing RS on (N-1) secondary cell carriers. If the third power value is still greater than the second power value, then based on the fifth rule, power control operation is continued on the information of the other (MN) carriers in descending order of transmission priority until the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value.

[0253] Method 3: Each carrier supports transmitting at least two of the multiple types of information. That is, when each carrier supports transmitting multiple types of information, the first information is determined in the following way:

[0254] Method 3-1: Determine the first information based on the reference information corresponding to each carrier.

[0255] In one example, terminal 101 can determine the priority value of each type of information to be sent. The specific determination method is similar to the method of determining the priority value of each type of information in method 2, and will not be described again here.

[0256] Furthermore, terminal 101 can determine the reference information corresponding to each carrier, which is a type of information that must be transmitted for each carrier.

[0257] It is understandable that terminal 101 can determine the reference information corresponding to each carrier based on a predefined method. Alternatively, terminal 101 can determine the reference information corresponding to each carrier based on the configuration or indication of network device 102.

[0258] For example, the reference information may be the information with the highest transmission priority on the current carrier, that is, the information with the lowest transmission priority value.

[0259] For example, if the information transmitted on carrier #1 is a sensing reference signal and a PUSCH, and the priority value of the PUSCH is 0, while the priority value of the sensing reference signal is 1, and the priority of transmitting the PUSCH is higher than the priority of transmitting the sensing reference signal, then terminal 101 can determine the PUSCH as the reference information on carrier #1, that is, terminal 101 must transmit the PUSCH on carrier #1.

[0260] Furthermore, terminal 101 can determine the fourth information corresponding to each carrier, which is a type of information with a higher priority value than the transmission reference information among the information transmitted by each carrier.

[0261] For example, if the information to be transmitted on carrier #1 is the sensing reference signal, PUSCH, and SRS, with the priority value of PUSCH being 0, the priority value of the sensing reference signal being 1, the priority value of SRS being 2, and PUSCH being reference information, then the sensing reference signal and SRS can be determined as the fourth information.

[0262] Furthermore, terminal 101 can determine one or more pieces of first information in descending order of priority value for sending the fourth information.

[0263] For example, the information transmitted on carrier #1 is a sensing reference signal, PUSCH, and SRS. The priority value of transmitting PUSCH is 0, the priority value of transmitting the sensing reference signal is 1, and the priority value of transmitting SRS is 2. PUSCH is reference information, and the fourth information includes the sensing reference signal and SRS. Terminal 101 prioritizes determining SRS as the first information. If the third power value is still higher than PTmax, terminal 101 can then determine the sensing reference signal as the first information.

[0264] Method 3-2: Determine the first message according to the priority value of sending multiple messages.

[0265] In one example, a priority value for each type of information can be determined among multiple types of information to be sent, and one or more first messages can be determined in descending order of priority value for each type of information.

[0266] The implementation method is similar to that of Method 2 mentioned above, and will not be repeated here.

[0267] Similarly, if there are cases where priority values ​​are equal, the one or more pieces of first information can be determined according to the third rule.

[0268] For example, carrier #1 is the primary cell carrier, used to transmit sensing RS and PUSCH #1. The priority value of sensing RS is 3, and the priority value of PUSCH #1 is 0. Carrier #2 is the secondary carrier cell, used to transmit PUCCH and PUSCH #2. The priority value of PUCCH is 1, and the priority value of PUSCH #2 is 0.

[0269] The transmission priority from high to low is as follows: PUSCH#1 on carrier #1 > PUSCH#2 on carrier #2 > PUCCH on carrier #2 > sensing RS on carrier #1. Then, terminal 101 can prioritize the sensing RS on carrier #1 as the first information. If the third power value is still greater than the second power value PTmax after the power control operation is performed, then the PUCCH on carrier #2 will continue to be determined as the first information and the power control operation will be performed on it.

[0270] Method 3-3 determines the first information based on the reference priority value of each carrier being transmitted.

[0271] In one example, terminal 101 can determine the reference priority value for transmitting each carrier based on a predefined method.

[0272] In one example, terminal 101 may determine a reference priority value for transmitting each carrier based on the configuration of network device 102.

[0273] In one example, terminal 101 may determine the fifth carrier among multiple carriers in descending order of reference priority values ​​for transmitting each carrier, and determine the information transmitted on the fifth carrier as one or more first information.

[0274] For example, if carrier #1 has a reference priority value of 0, carrier #2 has a reference priority value of 2, and carrier #3 has a reference priority value of 1, then the priority order for transmitting the three carriers is: carrier #1 > carrier #3 > carrier #2. Therefore, the information on carrier #2 is prioritized as the first information, and power control is performed. If the third power value is still greater than the second power value PTmax, the information on carrier #3 can continue to be prioritized as the first information, and power control is performed. If the third power value is still greater than PTmax, the information on carrier #1 can continue to be prioritized as the first information, and power control is performed.

[0275] The above is merely an illustrative example, and this disclosure does not limit the method of determining the first information.

[0276] In step S2104, terminal 101 performs a power control operation.

[0277] In some embodiments, terminal 101 may perform power control operations on the first information determined in step S2103.

[0278] In some embodiments, terminal 101 may stop performing the power control operation if the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value. In one example, the third power value is the sum of the power values ​​of various information transmitted after terminal 101 performs the power control operation.

[0279] In one example, the name of the third power value is not limited and can be interchanged with "actual transmitted power sum value", "actual total transmitted power value", etc.

[0280] In some embodiments, terminal 101 may reduce the power value for transmitting the first information.

[0281] In one example, if the power value for transmitting the first message #1 is reduced to 0, and the third power value is still greater than the second power value, then terminal 101 can reduce the power value for transmitting the first message #2 until the power value for transmitting the first message #2 is reduced to 0, or the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value. If the power value for transmitting the first message #2 is reduced to 0, and the third power value is still greater than the second power value, then terminal 101 can reduce the power value for transmitting the first message #3, and so on.

[0282] It should be noted that if the power value for sending the first message decreases to 0, the subsequent terminal 101 can cancel sending the first message.

[0283] For example, if the first information is a sensing reference signal, terminal 101 reduces the power value of transmitting the sensing reference signal until the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value, or the power value of transmitting the sensing reference signal drops to 0. If, during the process of reducing the power value of transmitting the sensing reference signal, it is determined that the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value, the power control operation can be stopped. If the power value of transmitting the sensing reference signal drops to 0, but the third power value is still greater than the second power value, terminal 101 can re-determine the first information, assuming it is SRS, and perform power control operation on SRS, reducing the power value of transmitting SRS until the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value, or the power value of transmitting SRS drops to 0, and so on.

[0284] For example, if the first information is a sensing reference signal #1 on secondary cell carrier #1, terminal 101 reduces the power value of transmitting sensing reference signal #1 until the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value, or the power value of transmitting sensing reference signal #1 drops to 0. If, during the process of reducing the power value of transmitting sensing reference signal #1, it is determined that the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value, the power control operation can be stopped. If the power value of transmitting sensing reference signal #1 drops to 0, but the third power value is still greater than the second power value, terminal 101 can again determine the first information, assuming it is a sensing reference signal #1 on secondary cell carrier #2, and reduce the power value of transmitting SRS until the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value, or the power value of transmitting SRS drops to 0. If the power value of transmitting SRS drops to 0, but the third power value is still greater than the second power value, terminal 101 can again determine the first information, assuming it is a sensing reference signal #2 on the primary carrier, and perform power control operation on sensing reference signal #2, ... until the third power value is less than or equal to the second power value, at which point the power control operation stops.

[0285] In step S2105, terminal 101 sends various types of information to receiving device 103.

[0286] In some embodiments, the receiving device 103 receives various types of information.

[0287] In some embodiments, terminal 101 transmits various types of information via one or more carriers according to a third power value after performing power control operation.

[0288] Understandably, after performing power control, the power value of a certain carrier may drop to 0, in which case the transmission of information on that carrier can be canceled and information on other carriers can be transmitted instead.

[0289] In some embodiments, the receiving device 103 may be the same device or a different device from the network device 102, and this disclosure does not limit this.

[0290] In some embodiments, the names of information, etc., are not limited to the names described in the embodiments.

[0297] In some embodiments, the information transmission method involved in this disclosure may include at least one of steps S2101 to S2105. For example, step S2101 may be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2102 may be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2101+S2102 may be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2103 may be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2104 may be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2103+S2104 may be implemented as an independent embodiment, step S2105 may be implemented as an independent embodiment, and steps S2101 to S2105 may be implemented as independent embodiments, but are not limited thereto.

[0298] In some embodiments, steps S2101 to S2105 are optional, and one or more of these steps may be omitted or substituted in different embodiments.

[0299] In some embodiments, the execution order of steps S2101 to S2105 is not limited.

[0300] In the above embodiments, if the sum of the power values ​​of transmitting multiple types of information exceeds the maximum transmission power value supported by the terminal, power control operations can be performed on one or more first types of information before transmitting multiple types of information via one or more carriers. This disclosure reduces terminal power consumption, improves the availability and reliability of multi-carrier communication, and enhances the availability of sensing integration technology when the multiple types of information include a sensing reference signal.

[0301] Figure 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling power according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 3, the present disclosure relates to a method for controlling power, which can be executed by terminal 101, and includes the following steps:

[0302] Step S3101: Determine the first power value.

[0303] In some embodiments, the first power value is the sum of the power values ​​for transmitting various types of information.

[0304] In some embodiments, reference can be made to the steps in other embodiments described before or after this embodiment, such as step S2101 in FIG2 and its optional implementation, and other related parts in the specification, which will not be repeated here.

[0305] Step S3102: Determine that the first power value is greater than the second power value.

[0306] In some embodiments, the second power value is the maximum transmit power value supported by the terminal.

[0307] In some embodiments, reference can be made to the steps in other embodiments described before or after this embodiment, such as step S2102 in FIG2 and its optional implementation, and other related parts in the specification, which will not be repeated here.

[0308] Step S3103: Determine the first information.

[0309] In some embodiments, reference can be made to the steps in other embodiments described before or after this embodiment, such as step S2103 in FIG2 and its optional implementation, as well as other related parts in the specification, which will not be repeated here.

[0310] Step S3104: Perform power control operation.

[0311] In some embodiments, reference can be made to the steps in other embodiments described before or after this embodiment, such as step S2104 in FIG2 and its optional implementation, as well as other related parts in the specification, which will not be repeated here.

[0312] Step S3105: Send various types of information.

[0313] In some embodiments, reference can be made to the steps in other embodiments described before or after this embodiment, such as step S2105 in FIG2 and its optional implementation, as well as other related parts in the specification, which will not be repeated here.

[0314] In some embodiments, steps S3101 to S3105 are optional, and one or more of these steps may be omitted or substituted in different embodiments.

[0315] In some embodiments, the execution order of steps S3101 to S3105 is not limited.

[0316] In the above embodiments, if the sum of the power values ​​of transmitting multiple types of information exceeds the maximum transmission power value supported by the terminal, power control operations can be performed on one or more first types of information before transmitting multiple types of information via one or more carriers. This disclosure reduces terminal power consumption, improves the availability and reliability of multi-carrier communication, and enhances the availability of sensing integration technology when the multiple types of information include a sensing reference signal.

[0317] The above process is further illustrated with examples below.

[0318] Assuming that multiple uplink signals or channels to be transmitted by the terminal on multiple carriers overlap during a time period t (which can be one or more symbols, or one or more time slots, etc.), the simultaneous transmission of multiple uplink signals will exceed the terminal's maximum transmit power PTmax, where PTmax refers to the maximum sum of the power transmitted by the terminal on multiple carriers. Furthermore, based on the terminal's capability parameters, the UE supports the simultaneous transmission of multiple uplink information in PRACH, PUCCH, PUSCH, SRS, and sensing RS on multiple carriers.

[0319] Case 1: Without defining a priority value for sensing RS, only define priority rules when it overlaps with multiple uplink signals or channels. Uplink signals or channels include two or more of PRACH, PUCCH, PUSCH, SRS, and sensing RS. For single-carrier characteristics, only one channel or signal can be transmitted uplink.

[0320] In one example, when the sensing RS transmitted on a carrier overlaps with uplink signals / channels on other carriers, the power of one or more signals or channels is reduced or not transmitted in order of priority from low to high according to the priority rules of the following protocol, until the total power transmitted by the terminal on multiple carriers is less than PTmax.

[0321] Define priority rules for various uplink signals or uplink channels, with priority from high to low. The rules can be as follows:

[0322] Option 1 (Option 1): Sensing RS>PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0323] Option 2: PRACH of PCell>Sensing RS>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0324] Option 3: PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>Sensing RS>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0325] Option 4: PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>Sensing RS>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0326] Option 5: PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>Sensing RS>SRS / PRACH of Scell.

[0327] Option 6: PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell>Sensing RS.

[0328] Option 7: PRACH of PCell>PUCCH / PUSCH with ACK / NACK and / or SR>PUCCH / PUSCH with other UCIs>PUSCH w / o UCI>SRS / PRACH of Scell / Sensing RS.

[0329] Specifically, SRS and sensing RS have the same priority level. When sensing RS and SRS overlap, and it is necessary to reduce or eliminate the transmission of one of them to meet PTmax (i.e., make the third power value less than or equal to the second power value), the following method is used:

[0330] Method 1: If the sensing RS and SRS signals are transmitted aperiodically, prioritize ensuring the power of the signal that is transmitted aperiodically, reduce the power of the other signal, or do not transmit the other signal, until PTmax is met.

[0331] Method 2: If both signals are transmitted aperiodically, prioritize ensuring the transmission power of the SRS signal, reduce the power of the sensing RS signal, or do not transmit the sensing RS signal until PT max is met.

[0332] Other UCIs include at least one of LRR and CSI.

[0333] The information reported by CSI may include parameters such as CQI, PMI, CRI, SSBRI, LI, RI, L1-RSRP, and L1-SINR.

[0334] For example, the terminal transmits on two carriers. Carrier #1 is a PCell carrier and transmits a PRACH signal. Carrier #2 transmits a sensing RS signal. The PRACH signal and the sensing RS signal overlap at time t. According to the priority rule defined in option 6 above, the power of the sensing RS signal is reduced or the sensing RS is not transmitted until the total transmission power of the UE on carriers 1 and 2 at the overlapping time t is less than PTmax.

[0335] For example, the terminal transmits on three carriers: carrier #1 transmits the sensing RS signal, carrier #2 transmits the SRS signal, and carrier #3 transmits the PUCCH carrying HARQ. The three signals overlap at time t. According to the priority rule defined in option 5 above, the power of the SRS signal is reduced first, or the SRS signal is not transmitted. If PTmax is still not met (i.e., the third power value is still greater than the second power value), the power of the sensing RS signal is reduced again, or the SRS signal is not transmitted, until the PTmax requirement is met.

[0336] Scenario 2: When a priority value is defined for the sensing RS, for example, two priority values ​​are defined: 0 and 1, where a value of 0 has a higher priority than a value of 1. Or, multiple priority values ​​are defined, such as {0, 1, 2, 3... 7}, where a priority value of 0 indicates a higher priority. The sensing RS priority value is predefined, preconfigured, or triggered by the UE to send a DCI indication of the sensing RS, but only one uplink channel or signal can be transmitted uplink.

[0337] In one example, when the sensing RS transmitted on a carrier overlaps with uplink signals or uplink channels on other carriers, and multiple signals transmitted on multiple carriers have corresponding priority values, the priority values ​​of the multiple signals are compared. According to the priority from low to high, the power of the signals is reduced or the corresponding signals are not transmitted until the total power meets PTmax. If there are signals on multiple carriers with the same priority value, then the following points 1 and 2 are followed (if the signals transmitted on the carrier do not have a defined priority value, then the method in case 1 is used).

[0338] Key Point 1: If signals transmitted on multiple uplink carriers have the same priority value, and one of the carriers transmits a sensing RS, then the power of the carrier transmitting the sensing RS is not changed. According to the NR multi-carrier power control rules (i.e., the fifth transmission priority), the power of the signals on one or more other carriers is reduced, or the signals on one or more other carriers are not transmitted.

[0339] Point 2: If signals transmitted on multiple carriers have the same priority value, and one of the carriers transmits a sensing RS, then the power on the sensing RS carrier is reduced or the sensing RS is not transmitted. If PTmax is still not met, the multi-carrier power control rule (i.e., the fifth transmission priority) is used to continue reducing the power of signals on one or more other carriers, or not transmitting signals on one or more other carriers, until PTmax is met.

[0340] Specifically, if signals transmitted on multiple (e.g., M) carriers have the same priority value, and multiple (e.g., N) carriers transmit sensing RS, where N and M are positive integers, N < M, and all N carriers are secondary cell carriers, then the sensing RS power on the N secondary cells is reduced first, or the sensing RS power on the N secondary cells is not transmitted. If PTmax is still not met, then the multi-carrier power control rule (i.e., the fifth transmission priority) is used to continue reducing the power of signals on one or more other carriers, or dropping signals on one or more other carriers, until PTmax is met.

[0341] Specifically, if signals transmitted on multiple (e.g., M) UL carriers have the same priority value, and multiple (e.g., N) carriers transmit sensing RS, where N and M are positive integers, N < M, and one of the N carriers is a primary cell carrier, then the sensing RS signal power on the primary cell carrier remains unchanged. Prioritize reducing the sensing RS power on the secondary cell carriers among the N carriers, or do not transmit the sensing RS on the secondary cell carriers among the N carriers. If PTmax is still not met, then the multi-carrier power control rule (i.e., the fifth transmission priority) is used to continue reducing the signal power on one or more of the other MN carriers, or drop the signal on one or more of the other MN carriers, until PTmax is met.

[0342] Case 3: When multiple uplink signals or channels can be transmitted on a single carrier, the power control of multiple carriers uses the following rules:

[0343] In one example, when multiple signals or channels transmitted on a carrier have corresponding priority values, one reference signal or channel is selected for each carrier. The priority values ​​of the reference signals or channels for each carrier are compared, and the power of the corresponding reference signals or channels is reduced or the corresponding signals are not transmitted in order of priority from low to high, until PTmax is met (in this case, the power of the reference signals or channels is reduced or the reference signals or channels are not transmitted on each carrier).

[0344] Method 1: The priority value of the reference signal or channel on the carrier is the signal or channel with the highest priority among the various signals transmitted on that carrier.

[0345] For example, if sensing RS and PUSCH are transmitted simultaneously on a carrier, and the priority value of PUSCH is 0 and the priority value of sensing RS is 1, then PUSCH has a higher priority than sensing RS. PUSCH is the reference channel of this carrier and has a corresponding priority value of 0.

[0346] Select one reference signal or channel until PTmax is satisfied. The priority value of the reference signal or channel on the carrier can be either a priority value dynamically indicated by DCI or a priority value.

[0347] In addition, priority values ​​for different information can be determined based on Table 1.

[0348] In one example, the priority values ​​of various signals or channels transmitted on multiple carriers are compared together, and the power of the corresponding signals is reduced or the corresponding signals are not transmitted in order of priority from low to high, until PTmax is met.

[0349] Specifically, when the same signal or channel is transmitted on multiple carriers and has the same priority value, any of the following rules can be used:

[0350] Signals on the primary cell carrier have higher priority than signals on the secondary cell carrier.

[0351] Non-periodic signals have a higher priority than periodic or semi-static signals.

[0352] For example, carrier #1 transmits a sensing RS on the primary carrier cell with a priority value of 3 and a PUSCH priority value of 0. Carrier #2 is the secondary carrier cell, transmitting a PUCCH with a priority value of 1 and a PUSCH priority value of 0. The priority order is: PUCCH on carrier #1 > PUSCH on carrier #2 > PUCCH on carrier #2 > sensing RS on carrier #1. Therefore, the transmission power of the sensing RS on carrier #1 is reduced, or the sensing RS is not transmitted. If the PTmax requirement is still not met, the transmission power of the PUCCH on carrier #2 is further reduced, or the PUCCH is not transmitted.

[0353] In one example, a reference priority value is predefined or preconfigured for each carrier. The reference priority values ​​of multiple carriers are compared together, and the power of the signal or channel on the carrier corresponding to the reference priority is reduced or the signal or channel on the corresponding carrier is not transmitted in order of priority from low to high.

[0354] Once the carrier to be reduced in power is determined, the power of the signal on that carrier is reduced first. Then, to determine which signal or channel on that carrier should be reduced or not transmitted, the following steps are taken:

[0355] Power control of multiple channels or signals within a single carrier can be determined by following priority rules defined for multiple signals or channels within a single carrier, or by comparing priority values ​​among various signals or channels within a single carrier to determine which channel or signal to reduce power.

[0356] For example, if the priority value of carrier #1 is 0, the reference priority value of carrier #2 is 2, and the reference priority value of carrier #3 is 1, then the priority order is carrier #1 > carrier #3 > carrier #2. In this case, the signal power on carrier #2 is reduced first, or the signal on carrier #2 is not transmitted. If PTmax is still not met, the signal power on carrier #3 is reduced further, or the signal on carrier #3 is not transmitted.
