Uplink Power Control Optimization via Closed-Loop Feedback

1Ease of operation

If default power levels are broadcast for PUCCH and PUSCH, then device complexity is reduced and ease of operation is improved, but uplink signal quality and SINR deteriorate due to suboptimal power transmission

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveease of power parameter configurationVSAvoiduplink signal quality

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service by allowing the network to automatically monitor uplink signal quality metrics (SINR, throughput) and autonomously adjust power parameters without requiring manual administrator intervention. The closed-loop system continuously optimizes power settings based on observed performance, making the system self-correcting and adaptive to changing conditions.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The invention implements feedback mechanisms where the system continuously monitors uplink signal quality metrics including SINR and throughput, compares actual performance against target thresholds, and uses this feedback to dynamically adjust power parameters. This closed-loop feedback ensures optimal power settings are maintained adaptively without manual intervention.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

2Ease of manufacture

If power parameters are set based on estimated path loss, then initial power configuration is simplified, but interference from various sources at the base station is not accounted for leading to poor SINR

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveease of power parameter settingVSAvoidinterference impact

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of manufactureVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically changes power parameters (pZeroNominalPucch, pZeroNominalPusch, alpha) based on monitored performance metrics and calculated interference levels. Rather than using fixed parameters based solely on path loss estimates, the system continuously adjusts these parameters in response to changing interference conditions and signal quality measurements, optimizing performance adaptively.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The invention implements feedback mechanisms where the system continuously monitors uplink signal quality metrics including SINR and throughput, compares actual performance against target thresholds, and uses this feedback to dynamically adjust power parameters. This closed-loop feedback ensures optimal power settings are maintained adaptively without manual intervention.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

3Reliability

If administrators manually detect and adjust power settings, then service awareness and control are improved, but time consumption and operational complexity increase

Engineering Contradiction:
