6.2C Transmitter power for SUL

38.101-13GPPNRPart 1: Range 1 StandaloneRelease 17TSUser Equipment (UE) radio transmission and reception

6.2C.1 Configured transmitted power for SUL

When a UE is configured with both NR UL and NR SUL carriers in a serving cell with active transmission either on the UL carrier(s) or SUL carrier, the configured transmit power requirements specified in clause 6.2.4 and 6.2A.4 are applicable for the UL carrier(s) and the SUL carrier, respectively.

If a UE supports a different power class than the default UE power class for NR UL band of SUL combination and the supported power class enables the higher maximum output power for SUL combination than that of the default power class:

– if the field of UE capability maxUplinkDutyCycle- SULcombination-PC2 is not absent and the average percentage of uplink symbols transmitted in a certain evaluation period is larger than the maximum percentage of uplink symbols that the UE indicates by maxUplinkDutyCycle- SULcombination-PC2 as defined in TS 38.331 (The exact evaluation period is no less than one radio frame); or

– if the IE P-Max as defined in TS 38.331 [7] is provided and set to the maximum output power of the default power class or lower;

– shall apply all requirements for the default power class to the supported power class and set the configured transmitted power as specified in clause 6.2.4;

– else;

– shall apply all requirements for the supported power class and set the configured transmitted power as specified in clause 6.2.4 (regardless of the average percentage of uplink symbols if the field of UE capability maxUplinkDutyCycle-interBandCA-PC2 is absent).

The average percentage of uplink symbols is defined as 50% × ( Duty_{NR, x} /maxDuty_NR,x + Duty_{NR, y} /maxDuty_NR,y, ). Duty_{NR, x}, Duty_{NR, y} represent the actual percentage of uplink symbols transmitted in the same evaluation period (The exact evaluation period is no less than one radio frame) for NR Band x, NR Band y respectively maxDuty_NR,x, maxDuty_NR,y represent the field of UE capability maxUplinkDutyCycle-PC2-FR1 per band as defined in TS 38.331. For NR Band x or NR Band y,

– if power class of one or both of the bands within the band combination is power class 2 and the corresponding UE capability maxUplinkDutyCycle-PC2-FR1 is absent;

– the corresponding maxDutyNR,x or maxDutyNR,y is equal to 50%;

– else if the band is configured with power class 3;

– the corresponding maxDutyNR,x or maxDutyNR,y is equal to 100%.

6.2C.2 ΔT_IB,c

For the UE which supports SUL band combination, ΔT_IB,c in Tables below applies. Unless otherwise stated, ΔT_IB,c is set to zero.
