CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     The present application claims priority to and the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 63/133,139, filed Dec. 31, 2020, which is fully incorporated herein by reference. 
    
    
     FIELD 
     This disclosure generally relates to wireless communication networks and, more particularly, to a method and apparatus for power headroom reporting (PHR) with multiple transmission and reception points (TRPs) in a wireless communication system. 
     BACKGROUND 
     With the rapid rise in demand for communication of large amounts of data to and from mobile communication devices, traditional mobile voice communication networks are evolving into networks that communicate with Internet Protocol (IP) data packets. Such IP data packet communication can provide users of mobile communication devices with voice over IP, multimedia, multicast and on-demand communication services. 
     An exemplary network structure is an Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN). The E-UTRAN system can provide high data throughput in order to realize the above-noted voice over IP and multimedia services. A new radio technology for the next generation (e.g., 5G) is currently being discussed by the 3GPP standards organization. Accordingly, changes to the current body of 3GPP standard are currently being submitted and considered to evolve and finalize the 3GPP standard. 
     SUMMARY 
     Methods and apparatuses are provided for power headroom report regarding multiple Transmission/Reception Points (TRPs) in a wireless communication system. The systems and methods of the present invention address, expand, and improve how networks perform power control on multiple TRPs, how networks manage power control for uplink transmissions for different links, and how a User Equipment (UE) derives one or more Power Headroom (PH)/Power Headroom Report (PHR) for different links. 
     In various embodiments, a device or UE derives one or more PH/Power Headroom Report PHR for one serving cell. The one or more PHR comprises a first PHR and a second PHR. The one or more PHR corresponds to one or more TRPs in the one serving cell or the one carrier. The first PHR corresponds to the first TRP in the one serving cell or the one carrier. The second PHR corresponds to the second TRP in the one serving cell or the one carrier. 
     In various embodiments, a device/UE is configured with a list of pairs of P0 and alpha for an uplink Bandwidth Part (BWP) of a first serving cell with multiple (TRPs) comprising at least a first TRP and a second TRP, wherein the pairs of P0 and alpha are open loop power control parameters for Physical Uplink Channel (PUSCH) transmission. A first Power Headroom (PH) for the first TRP based on at least a first pair of P0 and alpha associated with a lowest index of entry in the list is computed. A second PH for the second TRP based on at least a second pair of P0 and alpha associated with a second lowest index of entry in the list is computed. Information of the first PH and information of the second PH are transmitted.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     The invention described herein can be applied to or implemented in exemplary wireless communication systems and devices described below. In addition, the invention is described mainly in the context of the 3GPP architecture reference model. However, it is understood that with the disclosed information, one skilled in the art could easily adapt for use and implement aspects of the invention in a 3GPP2 network architecture as well as in other network architectures. 
     The exemplary wireless communication systems and devices described below employ a wireless communication system, supporting a broadcast service. Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various types of communication such as voice, data, and so on. These systems may be based on code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA), 3GPP LTE (Long Term Evolution) wireless access, 3GPP LTE-A (Long Term Evolution Advanced) wireless access, 3GPP2 UMB (Ultra Mobile Broadband), WiMax, 3GPP NR (New Radio), or some other modulation techniques. 
     In particular, the exemplary wireless communication systems and devices described below may be designed to support one or more standards such as the standard offered by a consortium named “3rd Generation Partnership Project” referred to herein as 3GPP, including: 38.300 V15.8.0 (2019-12) 3rd Generation Partnership Project; Technical Specification Group Radio Access Network; NR; NR and NG-RAN Overall Description; Stage 2 (Release 15); TS 38.321 V16.2.1 (2020-09) 3rd Generation Partnership Project; Technical Specification Group Radio Access Network; NR; Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol specification (Release 16); TS 38.212 V16.2.0 (2020-06) 3rd Generation Partnership Project; Technical Specification Group Radio Access Network; NR; Multiplexing and channel coding (Release 16); TS 38.213 V16.3.0 (2020-09) 3rd Generation Partnership Project; Technical Specification Group Radio Access Network; NR; Physical layer procedures for control (Release 16); RP-193133 New WID: Further enhancements on MIMO for NR, Samsung; TS 38.331 V16.2.0 (2020-09) 3rd Generation Partnership Project; Technical Specification Group Radio Access Network; NR; Radio Resource Control (RRC) protocol specification (Release 16); Final Report of 3GPP TSG RAN WG1 #102-e v1.0.0, (Online meeting, 17-28 Aug. 2020); and Chairman&#39;s Notes RAN1 #103-e V033 (https://www.3gpp.org/ftp/tsg_ran/WG1_RL1/TSGR1_103-e/Inbox/Chairman_notes/Chairman&#39;s Notes RAN1%23103-e v033.zip). The standards and documents listed above are hereby expressly and fully incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. 
       FIG. 1  shows a multiple access wireless communication system according to one embodiment of the invention. An access network  100  (AN) includes multiple antenna groups, one including  104  and  106 , another including  108  and  110 , and an additional including  112  and  114 . In  FIG. 1 , only two antennas are shown for each antenna group, however, more or fewer antennas may be utilized for each antenna group. Access terminal (AT)  116  is in communication with antennas  112  and  114 , where antennas  112  and  114  transmit information to access terminal  116  over forward link  120  and receive information from AT  116  over reverse link  118 . AT  122  is in communication with antennas  106  and  108 , where antennas  106  and  108  transmit information to AT  122  over forward link  126  and receive information from AT  122  over reverse link  124 . In a FDD system, communication links  118 ,  120 ,  124  and  126  may use different frequency for communication. For example, forward link  120  may use a different frequency than that used by reverse link  118 . 
     Each group of antennas and/or the area in which they are designed to communicate is often referred to as a sector of the access network. In the embodiment, antenna groups each are designed to communicate to access terminals in a sector of the areas covered by access network  100 . 
     In communication over forward links  120  and  126 , the transmitting antennas of access network  100  may utilize beamforming in order to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of forward links for the different access terminals  116  and  122 . Also, an access network using beamforming to transmit to access terminals scattered randomly through its coverage normally causes less interference to access terminals in neighboring cells than an access network transmitting through a single antenna to all its access terminals. 
     The AN may be a fixed station or base station used for communicating with the terminals and may also be referred to as an access point, a Node B, a base station, an enhanced base station, an eNodeB, or some other terminology. The AT may also be called User Equipment (UE), a wireless communication device, terminal, access terminal or some other terminology. 
       FIG. 2  is a simplified block diagram of an embodiment of a transmitter system  210  (also known as the access network) and a receiver system  250  (also known as access terminal (AT) or user equipment (UE)) in a MIMO system  200 . At the transmitter system  210 , traffic data for a number of data streams is provided from a data source  212  to a transmit (TX) data processor  214 . 
     In one embodiment, each data stream is transmitted over a respective transmit antenna. TX data processor  214  formats, codes, and interleaves the traffic data for each data stream based on a particular coding scheme selected for that data stream to provide coded data. 
     The coded data for each data stream may be multiplexed with pilot data using OFDM techniques. The pilot data is typically a known data pattern that is processed in a known manner and may be used at the receiver system to estimate the channel response. The multiplexed pilot and coded data for each data stream is then modulated (e.g., symbol mapped) based on a particular modulation scheme (e.g., BPSK, QPSK, M-PSK, or M-QAM) selected for that data stream to provide modulation symbols. The data rate, coding, and modulation for each data stream may be determined by instructions performed by processor  230 . 
     The modulation symbols for all data streams are then provided to a TX MIMO processor  220 , which may further process the modulation symbols (e.g., for OFDM). TX MIMO processor  220  then provides N T  modulation symbol streams to N T  transmitters (TMTR)  222   a  through  222   t . In certain embodiments, TX MIMO processor  220  applies beamforming weights to the symbols of the data streams and to the antenna from which the symbol is being transmitted. 
     Each transmitter  222  receives and processes a respective symbol stream to provide one or more analog signals, and further conditions (e.g., amplifies, filters, and upconverts) the analog signals to provide a modulated signal suitable for transmission over the MIMO channel. N T  modulated signals from transmitters  222   a  through  222   t  are then transmitted from N T  antennas  224   a  through  224   t , respectively. 
     At receiver system  250 , the transmitted modulated signals are received by N R  antennas  252   a  through  252   r  and the received signal from each antenna  252  is provided to a respective receiver (RCVR)  254   a  through  254   r . Each receiver  254  conditions (e.g., filters, amplifies, and downconverts) a respective received signal, digitizes the conditioned signal to provide samples, and further processes the samples to provide a corresponding “received” symbol stream. 
     An RX data processor  260  then receives and processes the N R  received symbol streams from N R  receivers  254  based on a particular receiver processing technique to provide N T  “detected” symbol streams. The RX data processor  260  then demodulates, deinterleaves, and decodes each detected symbol stream to recover the traffic data for the data stream. The processing by RX data processor  260  is complementary to that performed by TX MIMO processor  220  and TX data processor  214  at transmitter system  210 . 
     A processor  270  periodically determines which pre-coding matrix to use (discussed below). Processor  270  formulates a reverse link message comprising a matrix index portion and a rank value portion. 
     The reverse link message may comprise various types of information regarding the communication link and/or the received data stream. The reverse link message is then processed by a TX data processor  238 , which also receives traffic data for a number of data streams from a data source  236 , modulated by a modulator  280 , conditioned by transmitters  254   a  through  254   r , and transmitted back to transmitter system  210 . 
     At transmitter system  210 , the modulated signals from receiver system  250  are received by antennas  224 , conditioned by receivers  222 , demodulated by a demodulator  240 , and processed by a RX data processor  242  to extract the reserve link message transmitted by the receiver system  250 . Processor  230  then determines which pre-coding matrix to use for determining the beamforming weights then processes the extracted message. 
     Memory  232  may be used to temporarily store some buffered/computational data from  240  or  242  through Processor  230 , store some buffed data from  212 , or store some specific program codes. And Memory  272  may be used to temporarily store some buffered/computational data from  260  through Processor  270 , store some buffed data from  236 , or store some specific program codes. 
     Turning to  FIG. 3 , this figure shows an alternative simplified functional block diagram of a communication device according to one embodiment of the invention. As shown in  FIG. 3 , the communication device  300  in a wireless communication system can be utilized for realizing the UEs (or ATs)  116  and  122  in  FIG. 1 , and the wireless communications system is preferably the NR system.

The control circuit  306  executes the program code  312  in the memory  310  through the CPU  308 , thereby controlling an operation of the communications device  300 . The communications device  300  can receive signals input by a user through the input device  302 , such as a keyboard or keypad, and can output images and sounds through the output device  304 , such as a monitor or speakers. The transceiver  314  is used to receive and transmit wireless signals, delivering received signals to the control circuit  306 , and outputting signals generated by the control circuit  306  wirelessly. 
       FIG. 4  is a simplified block diagram of the program code  312  shown in  FIG. 3  in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. In this embodiment, the program code  312  includes an application layer  400 , a Layer 3 portion  402 , and a Layer 2 portion  404 , and is coupled to a Layer 1 portion  406 . The Layer 3 portion  402  generally performs radio resource control. The Layer 2 portion  404  generally performs link control. The Layer 1 portion  406  generally performs physical connections. 
     For LTE, LTE-A, or NR systems, the Layer 2 portion  404  may include a Radio Link Control (RLC) layer and a Medium Access Control (MAC) layer. The Layer 3 portion  402  may include a Radio Resource Control (RRC) layer.

     5.3.5 Physical Layer Procedures 
     5.3.5.1 Link Adaptation 
     Four types of link adaptation are supported as follows:
         Adaptive transmission bandwidth;   Adaptive transmission duration;   Transmission power control;   Adaptive modulation and channel coding rate.
 
For channel state estimation purposes, the UE may be configured to transmit SRS that the gNB may use to estimate the uplink channel state and use the estimate in link adaptation.
       

     5.3.5.4 HARQ 
     Asynchronous Incremental Redundancy Hybrid ARQ is supported. The gNB schedules each uplink transmission and retransmission using the uplink grant on DCI.
 
The UE may be configured to transmit code block group based transmissions where retransmissions may be scheduled to carry a sub-set of all the code blocks of a transport block.
 
     5.4 Carrier Aggregation 
     5.4.1 Carrier Aggregation 
     In Carrier Aggregation (CA), two or more Component Carriers (CCs) are aggregated. A UE may simultaneously receive or transmit on one or multiple CCs depending on its capabilities:
         A UE with single timing advance capability for CA can simultaneously receive and/or transmit on multiple CCs corresponding to multiple serving cells sharing the same timing advance (multiple serving cells grouped in one TAG);   A UE with multiple timing advance capability for CA can simultaneously receive and/or transmit on multiple CCs corresponding to multiple serving cells with different timing advances (multiple serving cells grouped in multiple TAGs). NG-RAN ensures that each TAG contains at least one serving cell;   A non-CA capable UE can receive on a single CC and transmit on a single CC corresponding to one serving cell only (one serving cell in one TAG).
 
CA is supported for both contiguous and non-contiguous CCs. When CA is deployed frame timing and SFN are aligned across cells that can be aggregated. The maximum number of configured CCs for a UE is 16 for DL and 16 for UL.

         Type 1 power headroom: the difference between the nominal UE maximum transmit power and the estimated power for UL-SCH transmission per activated Serving Cell;   Type 3 power headroom: the difference between the nominal UE maximum transmit power and the estimated power for SRS transmission per activated Serving Cell;   MPE P-MPR: the power backoff applied by the UE to meet the MPE FR2 requirements for a Serving Cell.
 
RRC controls Power Headroom reporting by configuring the following parameters:
   phr-PeriodicTimer;   phr-ProhibitTimer;   phr-Tx-PowerFactorChange;   phr-Type2OtherCell;   phr-ModeOtherCG;   multiplePHR;   mpe-Reporting;   mpe-ProhibitTimer;   mpe-Threshold.
 
A Power Headroom Report (PHR) shall be triggered if any of the following events occur:
   phr-ProhibitTimer expires or has expired and the path loss has changed more than phr-Tx-PowerFactorChange dB for at least one activated Serving Cell of any MAC entity of which the active DL BWP is not dormant BWP which is used as a pathloss reference since the last transmission of a PHR in this MAC entity when the MAC entity has UL resources for new transmission;   NOTE 1: The path loss variation for one cell assessed above is between the pathloss measured at present time on the current pathloss reference and the pathloss measured at the transmission time of the last transmission of PHR on the pathloss reference in use at that time, irrespective of whether the pathloss reference has changed in between. The current pathloss reference for this purpose does not include any pathloss reference configured using pathlossReferenceRS-Pos in TS 38.331 [5].   phr-PeriodicTimer expires;   upon configuration or reconfiguration of the power headroom reporting functionality by upper layers, which is not used to disable the function;   activation of an SCell of any MAC entity with configured uplink of which firstActiveDownlinkBWP-Id is not set to dormant BWP;   addition of the PSCell (i.e. PSCell is newly added or changed);   phr-ProhibitTimer expires or has expired, when the MAC entity has UL resources for new transmission, and the following is true for any of the activated Serving Cells of any MAC entity with configured uplink
           there are UL resources allocated for transmission or there is a PUCCH transmission on this cell, and the required power backoff due to power management (as allowed by P-MPR c  as specified in TS 38.101-1 [14], TS 38.101-2 [15], and TS 38.101-3 [16]) for this cell has changed more than phr-Tx-PowerFactorChange dB since the last transmission of a PHR when the MAC entity had UL resources allocated for transmission or PUCCH transmission on this cell.   
           Upon switching of activated BWP from dormant BWP to non-dormant DL BWP of an SCell of any MAC entity with configured uplink;   if mpe-Reporting is configured, mpe-ProhibitTimer is not running, and the measured P-MPR applied to meet MPE requirements as specified in TS 38.101-2 [15] is more than or equal to mpe-Threshold for at least one activated Serving Cell since the last transmission of a PHR in this MAC entity.   NOTE 2: The MAC entity should avoid triggering a PHR when the required power backoff due to power management decreases only temporarily (e.g. for up to a few tens of milliseconds) and it should avoid reflecting such temporary decrease in the values of P CMAX,f,c /PH when a PHR is triggered by other triggering conditions.   NOTE 3: If a HARQ process is configured with cg-RetransmissionTimer and if the PHR is already included in a MAC PDU for transmission by this HARQ process, but not yet transmitted by lower layers, it is up to UE implementation how to handle the PHR content.
 
If mpe-Reporting is configured, the MAC entity shall:
   1&gt; if the measured P-MPR applied to meet MPE requirements as specified in TS 38.101-2 [15] is more than or equal to mpe-Threshold for at least one activated Serving Cell and mpe-ProhibitTimer is not running:
           2&gt; trigger MPE P-MPR reporting for this Serving Cell.
 
If the MAC entity has UL resources allocated for a new transmission the MAC entity shall:
   
           1&gt; if it is the first UL resource allocated for a new transmission since the last MAC reset:
           2&gt; start phr-PeriodicTimer;   
           1&gt; if the Power Headroom reporting procedure determines that at least one PHR has been triggered and not cancelled; and   1&gt; if the allocated UL resources can accommodate the MAC CE for PHR which the MAC entity is configured to transmit, plus its subheader, as a result of LCP as defined in clause 5.4.3.1:
           2&gt; if multiplePHR with value true is configured:
               3&gt; for each activated Serving Cell with configured uplink associated with any MAC entity of which the active DL BWP is not dormant BWP:
                   4&gt; obtain the value of the Type 1 or Type 3 power headroom for the corresponding uplink carrier as specified in clause 7.7 of TS 38.213 [6] for NR Serving Cell and clause 5.1.1.2 of TS 36.213 [17] for E-UTRA Serving Cell;   4&gt; if this MAC entity has UL resources allocated for transmission on this Serving Cell; or   4&gt; if the other MAC entity, if configured, has UL resources allocated for transmission on this Serving Cell and phr-ModeOtherCG is set to real by upper layers:    5&gt; obtain the value for the corresponding P CMAX,f,c  field from the physical layer.    5&gt; if mpe-Reporting is configured:    6&gt; obtain the P-MPR value for the corresponding MPE field from the physical layer;    6&gt; set the corresponding P field according to the obtained P-MPR value.   
                   3&gt; if phr-Type2OtherCell with value true is configured:
                   4&gt; if the other MAC entity is E-UTRA MAC entity:    5&gt; obtain the value of the Type 2 power headroom for the SpCell of the other MAC entity (i.e. S-UTRA MAC entity);    5&gt; if phr-ModeOtherCG is set to real by upper layers:    6&gt; obtain the value for the corresponding P CMAX,f,c  field for the SpCell of the other MAC entity (i.e. E-UTRA MAC entity) from the physical layer.   
                   3&gt; instruct the Multiplexing and Assembly procedure to generate and transmit the Multiple Entry PHR MAC CE as defined in clause 6.1.3.9 based on the values reported by the physical layer.   
               2&gt; else (i.e. Single Entry PHR format is used):
               3&gt; obtain the value of the Type 1 power headroom from the physical layer for the corresponding uplink carrier of the PCell;   3&gt; obtain the value for the corresponding P CMAX,f,c  field from the physical layer;   3&gt; if mpe-Reporting is configured:
                   4&gt; obtain the P-MPR value for the corresponding MPE field from the physical layer;   4&gt; set the corresponding P field according to the obtained P-MPR value.   
                   3&gt; instruct the Multiplexing and Assembly procedure to generate and transmit the Single Entry PHR MAC CE as defined in clause 6.1.3.8 based on the values reported by the physical layer.   
               2&gt; if MPE P-MPR reporting has been triggered:
               3&gt; start or restart the mpe-ProhibitTimer;   3&gt; cancel triggered MPE P-MPR reporting for Serving Cells included in the PHR MAC CE.   
               2&gt; start or restart phr-PeriodicTimer;   2&gt; start or restart phr-ProhibitTimer;   2&gt; cancel all triggered PHR(s).

     6.1.3.8 Single Entry PHR MAC CE 
     The Single Entry PHR MAC CE is identified by a MAC subheader with LCID as specified in Table 6.2.1-2.
 
It has a fixed size and consists of two octets defined as follows (Figure 6.1.3.8-1):
         R: Reserved bit, set to 0;   Power Headroom (PH): This field indicates the power headroom level. The length of the field is 6 bits. The reported PH and the corresponding power headroom levels are shown in Table 6.1.3.8-1 below (the corresponding measured values in dB are specified in TS 38.133 [11]);   P: If mpe-Reporting is configured this field indicates the applied power backoff to meet MPE requirements, as specified in TS 38.101-2 [15]. The MAC entity shall set the P field to 0 if the backoff is less than P_MPR_0 as specified in TS 38.133 [11] and set the P field to 1 otherwise. If mpe-Reporting is not configured this field indicates whether the MAC entity applies power backoff due to power management (as allowed by P-MPR c  as specified in TS 38.101-1 [14], TS 38.101-2 [15], and TS 38.101-3 [16]). The MAC entity shall set the P field to 1 if the corresponding P CMAX,f,c  field would have had a different value if no power backoff due to power management had been applied;   P CMAX,f,c : This field indicates the P CMAX,f,c  (as specified in TS 38.213 [6]) used for calculation of the preceding PH field. The reported P CMAX,f,c  and the corresponding nominal UE transmit power levels are shown in Table 6.1.3.8-2 (the corresponding measured values in dBm are specified in TS 38.133 [11]);   MPE: If mpe-Reporting is configured and if the P field is set to 1, this field indicates the applied power backoff to meet MPE requirements, as specified in TS 38.101-2 [15]. This field indicates an index to Table 6.1.3.8-3 and the corresponding measured values of P-MPR levels in dB are specified in TS 38.133 [11]. The length of the field is 2 bits. If mpe-Reporting is not configured or if the P field is set to 0, R bits are present instead.

     6.1.3.9 Multiple Entry PHR MAC CE 
     The Multiple Entry PHR MAC CE is identified by a MAC subheader with LCID as specified in Table 6.2.1-2.
 
It has a variable size, and includes the bitmap, a Type 2 PH field and an octet containing the associated P CMAX,f,c  field (if reported) for SpCell of the other MAC entity, a Type 1 PH field and an octet containing the associated P CMAX,f,c  field (if reported) for the PCell. It further includes, in ascending order based on the ServCellIndex, one or multiple of Type X PH fields and octets containing the associated P CMAX,f,c  fields (if reported) for Serving Cells other than PCell indicated in the bitmap. X is either 1 or 3 according to TS 38.213 [6] and TS 36.213 [17].
 
The presence of Type 2 PH field for SpCell of the other MAC entity is configured by phr-Type2OtherCell with value true.
 
A single octet bitmap is used for indicating the presence of PH per Serving Cell when the highest ServCellIndex of Serving Cell with configured uplink is less than 8, otherwise four octets are used.
 
The MAC entity determines whether PH value for an activated Serving Cell is based on real transmission or a reference format by considering the configured grant(s) and downlink control information which has been received until and including the PDCCH occasion in which the first UL grant for a new transmission that can accommodate the MAC CE for PHR as a result of LCP as defined in clause 5.4.3.1 is received since a PHR has been triggered if the PHR MAC CE is reported on an uplink grant received on the PDCCH or until the first uplink symbol of PUSCH transmission minus PUSCH preparation time as defined in clause 7.7 of TS 38.213 [6] if the PHR MAC CE is reported on a configured grant.
 
For a band combination in which the UE does not support dynamic power sharing, the UE may omit the octets containing Power Headroom field and P CMAX,f,c  field for Serving Cells in the other MAC entity except for the PCell in the other MAC entity and the reported values of Power Headroom and P CMAX,f,c  for the PCell are up to UE implementation.
 
The PHR MAC CEs are defined as follows:
         C i : This field indicates the presence of a PH field for the Serving Cell with ServCellIndex i as specified in TS 38.331 [5]. The C, field set to 1 indicates that a PH field for the Serving Cell with ServCellIndex i is reported. The C, field set to 0 indicates that a PH field for the Serving Cell with ServCellIndex i is not reported;   R: Reserved bit, set to 0;   V: This field indicates if the PH value is based on a real transmission or a reference format. For Type 1 PH, the V field set to 0 indicates real transmission on PUSCH and the V field set to 1 indicates that a PUSCH reference format is used. For Type 2 PH, the V field set to 0 indicates real transmission on PUCCH and the V field set to 1 indicates that a PUCCH reference format is used. For Type 3 PH, the V field set to 0 indicates real transmission on SRS and the V field set to 1 indicates that an SRS reference format is used. Furthermore, for Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 PH, the V field set to 0 indicates the presence of the octet containing the associated P CMAX,f,c  field and the MPE field, and the V field set to 1 indicates that the octet containing the associated P CMAX,f,c  field and the MPE field is omitted;   Power Headroom (PH): This field indicates the power headroom level. The length of the field is 6 bits. The reported PH and the corresponding power headroom levels are shown in Table 6.1.3.8-1 (the corresponding measured values in dB for the NR Serving Cell are specified in TS 38.133 [11] while the corresponding measured values in dB for the E-UTRA Serving Cell are specified in TS 36.133 [12]);   P: If mpe-Reporting is configured this field indicates the applied power backoff to meet MPE requirements, as specified in TS 38.101-2 [15]. The MAC entity shall set the P field to 0 if the backoff is less than P_MPR_0 as specified in TS 38.133 [11] and set the P field to 1 otherwise. If mpe-Reporting is not configured this field indicates whether the MAC entity applies power backoff due to power management (as allowed by P-MPR s  as specified in TS 38.101-1 [14], TS 38.101-2 [15], and TS 38.101-3 [16]). The MAC entity shall set the P field to 1 if the corresponding P CMAX,f,c  field would have had a different value if no power backoff due to power management had been applied;   P CMAX,f,c : If present, this field indicates the P CMAX,f,c  (as specified in TS 38.213 [6]) for the NR Serving Cell and the P CMAX,c  or {tilde over (P)} CMAX,c  (as specified in TS 36.213 [17]) for the E-UTRA Serving Cell used for calculation of the preceding PH field. The reported P CMAX,f,c  and the corresponding nominal UE transmit power levels are shown in Table 6.1.3.8-2 (the corresponding measured values in dBm for the NR Serving Cell are specified in TS 38.133 [11] while the corresponding measured values in dBm for the E-UTRA Serving Cell are specified in TS 36.133 [12]);   MPE: If mpe-Reporting is configured and if the P field is set to 1, this field indicates the applied power backoff to meet MPE requirements, as specified in TS 38.101-2 [15]. This field indicates an index to Table 6.1.3.8-3 and the corresponding measured values of P-MPR levels in dB are specified in TS 38.133 [11]. The length of the field is 2 bits. If mpe-Reporting is not configured or if the P field is set to 0, R bits are present instead.

     where,
         P CMAX,f,c (i) is the UE configured maximum output power defined in [8-1, TS 38.101-1], [8-2, TS38.101-2] and [8-3, TS38.101-3] for carrier f of serving cell c in PUSCH transmission occasion i.   P O_PUSCH,b,f,c (j) is a parameter composed of the sum of a component P O_NOMINAL_PUSCH,f,c (j) and a component P O_UE_PUSCH,b,f,c (j) where jϵ{0, 1, . . . , J−1}.   . . . .
           For jϵ{2, . . . , J−1}=S J , a P O_NOMINAL_PUSCH,f,c (j) value, applicable for all jϵS J , is provided by p0-NominalWithGrant, or P O_NOMINAL_PUSCH,f,c (j)=P O_NOMINAL_PUSCH,f,c (0) if p0-NominalWithGrant is not provided, for each carrier f of serving cell c and a set of P O_UE_PUSCH,b,f,c (j) values are provided by a set of p0 in P0-PUSCH-AlphaSet indicated by a respective set of p0-PUSCH-AlphaSetId for active UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c
               If the UE is provided by SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl more than one values of p0-PUSCH-AlphaSetId and if a DCI format scheduling the PUSCH transmission includes a SRI field, the UE obtains a mapping from sri-PUSCH-PowerControlId in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl between a set of values for the SRI field in the DCI format [5, TS 38.212] and a set of indexes provided by p0-PUSCH-AlphaSetId that map to a set of P0-PUSCH-AlphaSet values and determines the value of P O_UE_PUSCH,b,f,c (j) from the p0-PUSCH-AlphaSetId value that is mapped to the SRI field value. If the DCI format also includes a open-loop power control parameter set indication field and a value of the open-loop power control parameter set indication field is ‘1’, the UE determines a value of P O_UE_PUSCH,b,f,c (i) from a first value in P0-PUSCH-Set-r16 with a p0-PUSCH-SetId-r16 value mapped to the SRI field value.   If the PUSCH transmission except for the PUSCH retransmission corresponding to a RAR UL grant is scheduled by a DCI format that does not include an SRI field, or if SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl is not provided to the UE, j=2,
                   If P0-PUSCH-Set-r16 is provided to the UE and the DCI format includes an open-loop power control parameter set indication field, the UE determines a value of P O_UE_PUSCH,b,f,c (j) from    a first P0-PUSCH-AlphaSet in p0-AlphaSets if a value of the open-loop power control parameter set indication field is ‘0’ or ‘00’    a first value in P0-PUSCH-Set-r16 with the lowest p0-PUSCH-SetID value if a value of the open-loop power control parameter set indication field is ‘1’ or ‘01’    a second value in P0-PUSCH-Set-r16 with the lowest p0-PUSCH-SetID value if a value of the open-loop power control parameter set indication field is ‘10’   else, the UE determines P O_UE_PUSCH,b,f,c (j) from the value of the first P0-PUSCH-AlphaSet in p0-AlphaSets   
                   
               
           For α b,f,c (j)   . . . .
           For jϵS J , a set of α b,f,c (j) values are provided by a set of alpha in P0-PUSCH-AlphaSet indicated by a respective set of p0-PUSCH-AlphaSetId for active UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c
               If the UE is provided SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl and more than one values of p0-PUSCH-AlphaSetId, and if a DCI format scheduling the PUSCH transmission includes a SRI field, the UE obtains a mapping from sri-PUSCH-PowerControlId in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl between a set of values for the SRI field in the DCI format [5, TS 38.212] and a set of indexes provided by p0-PUSCH-AlphaSetId that map to a set of P0-PUSCH-AlphaSet values and determines the values of α b,f,c (j) from the p0-PUSCH-AlphaSetId value that is mapped to the SRI field value   If the PUSCH transmission except for the PUSCH retransmission corresponding to a RAR UL grant is scheduled by a DCI format that does not include a SRI field, or if SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl is not provided to the UE, j=2, and the UE determines α b,f,c (j) from the value of the first P0-PUSCH-AlphaSet in p0-AlphaSets   
               
           M RB,b,f,c   PUSCH (i) is the bandwidth of the PUSCH resource assignment expressed in number of resource blocks for PUSCH transmission occasion i on active UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c and μ is a SCS configuration defined in [4, TS 38.211]   PL b,f,c (q d ) is a downlink pathloss estimate in dB calculated by the UE using reference signal (RS) index q d  for the active DL BWP, as described in Clause 12, of carrier f of serving cell c   If the UE is not provided PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS and enableDefaultBeamPL-ForSRS-r16, or before the UE is provided dedicated higher layer parameters, the UE calculates PL b,f,c (q d ) using a RS resource from an SS/PBCH block with same SS/PBCH block index as the one the UE uses to obtain MIB   . . . .
           If the UE is provided SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl and more than one values of PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS-Id, the UE obtains a mapping from sri-PUSCH-PowerControlId in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl between a set of values for the SRI field in a DCI format scheduling the PUSCH transmission and a set of PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS-Id values and determines the RS resource index q d  from the value of PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS-Id that is mapped to the SRI field value where the RS resource is either on serving cell c or, if provided, on a serving cell indicated by a value of pathlossReferenceLinking   If
               the PUSCH transmission is scheduled by DCI format 0_0 and the UE is not provided a spatial setting for a PUCCH transmission, or   the PUSCH transmission is not scheduled by DCI format 0_0 that does not include an SRI field, or   SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl is not provided to the UE,   
               the UE determines a RS resource index q d  with a respective PUSCH-PathlossReferenceRS-Id value being equal to zero where the RS resource is either on serving cell c or, if provided, on a serving cell indicated by a value of pathlossReferenceLinking   If

     7.3 Sounding Reference Signals 
     For SRS, a UE splits a linear value {circumflex over (P)} SRS,b,f,c (i,q s ,l) of the transmit power P SRS,b,f,c (i,q s ,l) on active UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c equally across the configured antenna ports for SRS. 
     7.3.1 UE Behaviour 
     If a UE transmits SRS based on a configuration by SRS-ResourceSet on active UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c using SRS power control adjustment state with index l, the UE determines the SRS transmission power P SRS,b,f,c (i,q s ,l) in SRS transmission occasion i as

     7.7 Power Headroom Report 
     The types of UE power headroom reports are the following. A Type 1 UE power headroom PH that is valid for PUSCH transmission occasion i on active UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c. A Type 3 UE power headroom PH that is valid for SRS transmission occasion i on active UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c.
 
A UE determines whether a power headroom report for an activated serving cell [11, TS 38.321] is based on an actual transmission or a reference format based on the higher layer signalling of configured grant and periodic/semi-persistent sounding reference signal transmissions and downlink control information the UE received until and including the PDCCH monitoring occasion where the UE detects the first DCI format 0_0 or DCI format 0_1 scheduling an initial transmission of a transport block since a power headroom report was triggered if the power headroom report is reported on a PUSCH triggered by the first DCI. Otherwise, a UE determines whether a power headroom report is based on an actual transmission or a reference format based on the higher layer signalling of configured grant and periodic/semi-persistent sounding reference signal transmissions and downlink control information the UE received until the first uplink symbol of a configured PUSCH transmission minus T′ proc,2 =T proc,2  where T proc,2  is determined according to [6, TS 38.214] assuming d 2,1 =1, d 2,2 =0, and with μ DL  corresponding to the subcarrier spacing of the active downlink BWP of the scheduling cell for a configured grant if the power headroom report is reported on the PUSCH using the configured grant.
 
     7.7.1 Type 1 PH Report 
     If a UE determines that a Type 1 power headroom report for an activated serving cell is based on an actual PUSCH transmission then, for PUSCH transmission occasion i on active UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c, the UE computes the Type 1 power headroom report as 
         PH   type1,b,f,c ( i,j,q   d   ,l )= P   CMAX,f,c ( i )−{ P   O_PUSCH,b,f,c ( j )+10 log 10 (2 μ   ·M   RB,b,f,c   PUSCH ( i ))+α b,f,c ( j )· PL   b,f,c ( q   d )+Δ TF,b,f,c ( i )+ f   b,f,c ( i,l )}[dB]
 
     where P CMAX,f,c (i), P O_PUSCHb,f,c (j), M RB,b,f,c   PUSCH (i), α b,f,c (j), PL b,f,c (q d ), Δ TF,b,f,c (i) and f b,f,c (i,l) are defined in Clause 7.1.1.
 
If a UE is configured with multiple cells for PUSCH transmissions, where a SCS configuration μ 1  on active UL BWP b 1  of carrier f 1  of serving cell c 1  is smaller than a SCS configuration μ 2  on active UL BWP b 2  of carrier f 2  of serving cell c 2 , and if the UE provides a Type 1 power headroom report in a PUSCH transmission in a slot on active UL BWP b 1  that overlaps with multiple slots on active UL BWP b 2 , the UE provides a Type 1 power headroom report for the first PUSCH, if any, on the first slot of the multiple slots on active UL BWP b 2  that fully overlaps with the slot on active UL BWP b 1 . If a UE is configured with multiple cells for PUSCH transmissions, where a same SCS configuration on active UL BWP b 1  of carrier f 1  of serving cell c 1  and active UL BWP b 2  of carrier f 2  of serving cell c 2 , and if the UE provides a Type 1 power headroom report in a PUSCH transmission in a slot on active UL BWP b 1 , the UE provides a Type 1 power headroom report for the first PUSCH, if any, on the slot on active UL BWP b 2  that overlaps with the slot on active UL BWP b 1 .
 
If a UE is configured with multiple cells for PUSCH transmissions and provides a Type 1 power headroom report in a PUSCH transmission with PUSCH repetition Type B having a nominal repetition that spans multiple slots on active UL BWP b 1  and overlaps with one or more slots on active UL BWP b 2 , the UE provides a Type 1 power headroom report for the first PUSCH, if any, on the first slot of the one or more slots on active UL BWP b 2  that overlaps with the multiple slots of the nominal repetition on active UL BWP b 1 .
 
. . . If a UE is configured with multiple cells for PUSCH transmissions, the UE does not consider for computation of a Type 1 power headroom report in a first PUSCH transmission that includes an initial transmission of transport block on active UL BWP b 1  of carrier f 1  of serving cell c 1 , a second PUSCH transmission on active UL BWP b 2  of carrier f 2  of serving cell c 2  that overlaps with the first PUSCH transmission if
         the second PUSCH transmission is scheduled by a DCI format 0_0 or a DCI format 0_1 in a PDCCH received in a second PDCCH monitoring occasion, and   the second PDCCH monitoring occasion is after a first PDCCH monitoring occasion where the UE detects the earliest DCI format 0_0 or DCI format 0_1 scheduling an initial transmission of a transport block after a power headroom report was triggered
 
or
   the second PUSCH transmission is after the first uplink symbol of the first PUSCH transmission minus T′ proc,2 =T proc,2  where T proc,2  is determined according to [6, TS 38.214] assuming d 2,l =1, d22=0, and with μ DL  corresponding to the subcarrier spacing of the active downlink BWP of the scheduling cell for a configured grant if the first PUSCH transmission is on a configured grant after a power headroom report was triggered.
 
If the UE determines that a Type 1 power headroom report for an activated serving cell is based on a reference PUSCH transmission then, for PUSCH transmission occasion i on active UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c, the UE computes the Type 1 power headroom report as
       

         PH   type1,b,f,c ( i,j,q   d   ,l )= {tilde over (P)}   CMAX,f,c ( i )−{ P   O_PUSCH,b,f,c ( j )+α b,f,c ( j )+α b,f,c ( j )· PL   b,f,c ( q   d )+ f   b,f,c ( i,l )} [dB]
 
     where {tilde over (P)} CMAX,f,c (i) is computed assuming MPR=0 dB, A-MPR=0 dB, P-MPR=0 dB. ΔT C =0 dB. MPR, A-MPR, P-MPR and ΔTC are defined in [8-1, TS 38.101-1], [8-2, TS38.101-2] and [8-3, TS 38.101-3]. The remaining parameters are defined in Clause 7.1.1 where P O_PUSCH,b,f,c (j) and α b,f,c (i) are obtained using P O_NOMINAL_PUSCH,f,c (0) and p0-PUSCH-AlphaSetId=0, PL b,f,c (q d ) is obtained using pusch-PathlossReferenceRS-Id=0, and l=0. 
     7.7.3 Type 3 PH Report 
     If a UE determines that a Type 3 power headroom report for an activated serving cell is based on an actual SRS transmission then, for SRS transmission occasion i on active UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c and if the UE is not configured for PUSCH transmissions on carrier f of serving cell c and the resource for the SRS transmission is provided by SRS-Resource, the UE computes a Type 3 power headroom report as 
         PH   type3,b,f,c ( i,q   s )= P   CMAX,f,c ( i )−{ P   O_SRS,b,f,c ( q   s )+10 log 10 (2 μ   ·M   SRS,b,f,c ( i ))+α SRS,b,f,c ( q   s )· PL   b,f,c ( q   d )+ h   b,f,c ( i )} [dB]
 
     where P CMAX,f,c (i) P O_SRS,b,f,c (q s ), M SRS,b,f,c (i), α SRS,b,f,c (q s ), PL b,f,c (q d ) and h b,f,c (i) are defined in Clause 7.3.1 with corresponding values provided by SRS-ResourceSet.
 
If the UE determines that a Type 3 power headroom report for an activated serving cell is based on a reference SRS transmission then, for SRS transmission occasion i on UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c, and if the UE is not configured for PUSCH transmissions on UL BWP b of carrier f of serving cell c and a resource for the reference SRS transmission is provided by SRS-Resource, the UE computes a Type 3 power headroom report as
 
         PH   type3,b,f,c ( i,q   s )= {tilde over (P)}   CMAX,f,c ( i )−{ P   O_SRS,b,f,c ( q   s )+α SRS,b,f,c ( q   s )· PL   b,f,c ( q   d )+ h   b,f,c ( i )}[dB]
 
     where q s  is an SRS resource set corresponding to SRS-ResourceSetId=0 for UL BWP b and P O_SRS,b,f,c (q s ), α SRS,f,c (q s ), PL b,f,c (q d ) and h b,f,c (i) are defined in Clause 7.3.1 with corresponding values obtained from SRS-ResourceSetId=0 for UL BWP b. {tilde over (P)} CMAX,f,c (i) is computed assuming MPR=0 dB, A-MPR=0 dB, P-MPR=0 dB and ΔT C =0 dB. MPR, A-MPR, P-MPR and ΔT C  are defined in [8-1, TS 38.101-1], [8-2, TS38.101-2] and [8-3, TS 38.101-3].

If the field is absent, the UE applies the value 0.       tci-PresentInDCI       This field indicates if TCI field is present or absent in DCI format 1_1. When the field is absent the UE considers the        TCI to be absent/disabled. In case of cross carrier scheduling, the network sets this field to enabled for the       ControlResourceSet used for cross carrier scheduling in the scheduling cell (see TS 38.214 [19], clause 5.1.5).       tci-StatesPDCCH-ToAddList       A subset of the TCI states defined in pdsch-Config included in the BWP-DownlinkDedicated corresponding to the       serving cell and to the DL BWP to which the ControlResourceSet belong to. They are used for providing QCL       relationships between the DL RS(s) in one RS Set (TCI-State) and the PDCCH DMRS ports (see TS 38.213 [13],       clause 6.). The network configures at most maxNrofTCI-StatesPDCCH entries.

     PDCCH-Config 
     The IE PDCCH-Config is used to configure UE specific PDCCH parameters such as control resource sets (CORESET), search spaces and additional parameters for acquiring the PDCCH. If this IE is used for the scheduled cell in case of cross carrier scheduling, the fields other than searchSpacesToAddModList and searchSpacesToReleaseList are absent. If the IE is used for a dormant BWP, the fields other than controlResourceSetToAddModList and controlResourceSetToReleaseList are absent.

Value sf10 corresponds to 10       subframes, and so on.       mpe-Reporting-FR2       Indicates whether the UE shall report MPE P-MPR in the PHR MAC control element, as specified in TS 38.321 [3].       mpe-Threshold       Value of the P-MPR threshold in dB for reporting MPE P-MPR when FR2 is configured, as specified in TS 38.321 [3].       The same value applies for each serving cell (although the associated functionality is performed independently for each       cell).       multiplePHR       Indicates if power headroom shall be reported using the Single Entry PHR MAC control element or Multiple Entry PHR       MAC control element defined in TS 38.321 [3]. True means to use Multiple Entry PHR MAC control element and False       means to use the Single Entry PHR MAC control element defined in TS 38.321 [3]. The network configures this field to       true for MR-DC and UL CA for NR, and to false in all other cases.       phr-ModeOtherCG       Indicates the mode (i.e. real or virtual) used for the PHR of the activated cells that are part of the other Cell Group (i.e.       MCG or SCG), when DC is configured. If the UE is configured with only one cell group (no DC), it ignores the field.       phr-PeriodicTimer       Value in number of subframes for PHR reporting as specified in TS 38.321 [3]. Value sf10 corresponds to 10       subframes, value sf20 corresponds to 20 subframes, and so on.       phr-ProhibitTimer       Value in number of subframes for PHR reporting as specified in TS 38.321 [3]. Value sf0 corresponds to 0 subframe,       value sf10 corresponds to 10 subframes, value sf20 corresponds to 20 subframes, and so on.       phr-Tx-PowerFactorChange       Value in dB for PHR reporting as specified in TS 38.321 [3]. Value dB 1 corresponds to 1 dB, dB 3 corresponds to 3 dB       and so on. The same value applies for each serving cell (although the associated functionality is performed       independently for each cell).       phr-Type20therCell       If set to true, the UE shall report a PHR type 2 for the SpCell of the other MAC entity. See TS 38.321 [3], clause 5.4.6.       Network sets this field to false if the UE is not configured with an E-UTRA MAC entity.

     ServCellIndex 
     The IE ServCellIndex concerns a short identity, used to identify a serving cell (i.e. the PCell, the PSCell or an SCell). Value 0 applies for the PCell, while the SCellIndex that has previously been assigned applies for SCells.

     SRS-Config 
     The IE SRS-Config is used to configure sounding reference signal transmissions. The configuration defines a list of SRS-Resources and a list of SRS-ResourceSets. Each resource set defines a set of SRS-Resources. The network triggers the transmission of the set of SRS-Resources using a configured aperiodicSRS-ResourceTrigger (L1 DCI).

     QUOTATION [16] END 
     Some or all of the following terminology and assumptions may be used herein.
         BS: a network central unit or a network node in NR which is used to control one or multiple TRPs which are associated with one or multiple cells. Communication between BS and TRP(s) is via fronthaul. BS may be referred to as central unit (CU), eNB, gNB, or NodeB.   TRP: a transmission and reception point provides network coverage and directly communicates with UEs. TRP may be referred to as distributed unit (DU) or network node.   Cell: a cell is composed of one or multiple associated TRPs, i.e. coverage of the cell is composed of coverage of all associated TRP(s). One cell is controlled by one BS. Cell may be referred to as TRP group (TRPG).   Serving beam: serving beam for a UE is a beam generated by a network node, e.g. TRP, which is configured to be used to communicate with the UE, e.g. for transmission and/or reception.   Candidate beam: candidate beam for a UE is a candidate of a serving beam. Serving beam may or may not be candidate beam.       

     Issues 
     In NR Rel-15, beamforming technologies are adopted to conquer the high power penetration in high frequency band, e.g., above 6 GHz. Hence, a gNB and a User Equipment (UE) may both use some transmission beams and/or receiving beams to make high throughput data in such high frequency band reliable. How to choose suitable transmission beam and/or receiving beam has played an important role in NR Rel-15. Beam indication for various channels and reference signals are also well discussed and captured in specification along with the development of New Radio (NR). 
     Nonetheless, in NR Rel-15, beam indication for receiving DL transmission only considers transmission from a single Transmission/Reception Point (TRP) and/or using the panel within a time duration (e.g., one slot or mini-slot), at least from the perspective of the UE. In NR Rel-16, people and companies resume to consider Downlink (DL) transmission from multiple TRPs and/or panels. For transmission from multiple TRPs and/or panels, it may imply that a single DL transmission may be performed by a different beam from multiple TRPs and/or panels. It may also mean that the UE may receive multiple DL transmissions from multiple TRPs and/or panels within a time duration (e.g., one slot or mini-slot). In NR Rel-16, enhancement to Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) with consideration of the multiple TRP scenario has also been made. Hence, we have some Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) repetition schemes to improve reliability of receiving PDSCH. Some examples could be Subscriber Data Management (SDM) repetition schemes, Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM) repetition schemes, mini-slot based repetition schemes and slot based repetition schemes. 
     Regarding NR Rel-17, people started to consider reliability enhancement of other channels, for example, Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH), and Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH). With respect to PUSCH, multiple TRP for improving reliability and/or coverage of uplink transmissions is considered. According to progress of 3GPP RANI, the UE may receive a Downlink Control Information (DCI) scheduling of one or more PUSCHs for one Transport Block (TB), and the one or more PUSCHs may be transmitted by different beams or may be toward different TRPs or TRP groups. Regarding one UE communicating with up to two TRPs in the same serving cell/carrier or in different serving cell/carrier, association between each PUSCH and beam/spatial relation filter/QCLed reference signal could be sequential or cyclic of two beams/spatial relation filters/QCLed reference signals. 
     For example, the UE receives a DCI scheduling four PUSCH transmissions for one TB (e.g., PUSCH1˜4), the UE may transmit PUSCH via beams/spatial relation filters/QCLed reference signals with index 1 or 2. In this example, the UE may transmit PUSCH1˜PUSCH4 via cyclically beams/spatial relation filters/QCLed reference signals {1, 2, 1, 2} or sequentially beams/spatial relation filters/QCLed reference signals {1, 1, 2, 2}. As for PUSCH transmission via different beam/spatial relation filter/QCLed reference signal, PUSCH transmissions may need different transmit power for compensating different channel effect or different power attenuation. According to current Power Headroom Report (PHR) framework, the network may receive cell-specific PHR for one serving cell. However, since the one PHR for the one serving cell only represents one link (e.g., between UE and one TRP), it may be hard for the network to manage power control for the other line (e.g., unknown PHR link, between the UE and the other TRP). Thus, how the network performs power control on mTRP/multi-TRP/multiple TRP PUSCHs may need further consideration. 
     For example, assuming the network may communicate with the UE via two links, wherein a first link is between TRP0 and UE, and a second link is between TRP1 and UE. In this example, in response to receiving PHR from the UE, how the network manages power control for different links&#39; uplink transmission may need further consideration. Preferably and/or additionally, as for virtual PHR, how the UE derives virtual PHR for a different link may need further consideration. Preferably and/or additionally, as for DCI format without SRI field (e.g., N SRS =1), since there is no SRI field for indicating PUSCH power control for two TRPs, how the UE derives PHR for a different link may need further consideration. 
     Solution Concept 1 
     Referring to  FIG. 8 , with this and other concepts and methods of the present invention  1000 , a UE derives one or more PH (power headroom)/PHR (power headroom report) for one serving cell, at step  1002 . The one or more PHR comprises a first PHR and a second PHR, at step  1004 . The one or more PHR corresponds to one or more TRPs in the one serving cell or the one carrier, at step  1006 . The first PHR corresponds to the first TRP in the one serving cell or the one carrier, and the second PHR corresponds to the second TRP in the one serving cell or the one carrier, at step  1008 . 
     In certain embodiments, for the first PHR being determined as a virtual PHR, the UE derives the first PHR based on at least a first one or more parameters, and/or a first maximum reference power. 
     In certain embodiments, for the second PHR being determined as a virtual PHR, the UE derives the second PHR based on at least a second one or more parameters, and/or a second maximum reference power. 
     The first maximum reference power could be the same or different as the second maximum reference power. MPR means Maximum Power Reduction. 
     The first maximum reference power could be {tilde over (P)} CMAX,f,c (i) computed assuming MPR=0 dB, A-MPR=0 dB, P-MPR=0 dB. ΔT C =0 dB. MPR, A-MPR, P-MPR and ΔTC are defined in [8-1, TS 38.101-1], [8-2, TS38.101-2] and [8-3, TS 38.101-3].

     According to 3GPP TS 38.101, v16.2.0 and 3GPP TS 38.213, v16.2.0, the UE would set the first or the second maximum reference power by at least considering Radio Resource Control (RRC) configured power from the network, maximum power reduction (MPR) being 0, Additional maximum power reduction (A-MPR) being 0, and power tolerance being 0.

     In certain embodiments, the first configured maximum output power is P CMAX,f,c (i) is the UE configured maximum output power defined in [8-1, TS 38.101-1], [8-2, TS38.101-2] and [8-3, TS38.101-3] for carrier f of serving cell c in PUSCH transmission occasion i. 
     In certain embodiments, the second configured maximum output power is P CMAX,f,c (i) is the UE configured maximum output power defined in [8-1, TS 38.101-1], [8-2, TS38.101-2] and [8-3, TS38.101-3] for carrier f of serving cell c in PUSCH transmission occasion i. 
     According to 3GPP TS 38.101, v16.2.0, the UE would set the first or the second configured maximum output power by at least considering RRC configured power from the network, maximum power reduction (MPR) associated with modulation scheme and transmission bandwidth, Additional maximum power reduction (A-MPR) configured by the network, and power tolerance. 
     The first one or more parameters could at least comprise a first specific pathloss reference, and/or a first specific closed loop index.

     In certain embodiments, a value of the second specific pathloss reference is the same or different than the value of the first specific pathloss reference.

     In certain embodiments, the second set of closed loop index (e.g., 1) comprises one indexes (e.g., l=0). 
     One code-point indicated by a SRI field in a DCI format could indicate or associate to one or more SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) from the first set of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) and/or the second set of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi). 
     One code-point indicated by a SRI field in a DCI format could indicate or associate to one entry from the first set of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) and/or the second set of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi). 
     In certain embodiments, if number of entry of number of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) in the first set of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) is different than number of entry of number of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) in the first set of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl, some code-point indicated by the SRI field indicates “one TRP” (uplink transmission of a TB).

     For example, in  FIG. 11 , code-point indicated by SRI field in DCI format 0_1/0_2 could associate to one or more SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_xi, wherein xi is index of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi). The UE could be configured with a first set of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) (e.g., SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_xi, 0-3) and a second set of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) (e.g., SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_yi, i=0-15) for/in/on an uplink BWP on/in a serving cell. TRP0 could be a first TRP of a serving cell and TRP1 could be a second TRP of the serving cell. In this example, code-point(s) “0000” ˜“0011” could indicate “two TRPs” uplink transmission of a TB. Code-point(s) “0100-1111” could indicate “one TRP” uplink transmission of a TB (e.g., TRP1) (since there are four SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_xi for TRP0). Alternatively, Code-point(s) “0100-1111” could indicate “two TRPs” uplink transmission of a TB, and SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_y4˜15 is shared by TRP0 and TRP1. Preferably, one/each SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_xi comprises SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_xi and/or SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_yi. Preferably, (as for TRP0), one SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_xi comprises ID of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_xi, and/or PL RS, and/or ID of P0/alpha, and/or closed loop index.

     The UE can identify/determine/derive whether a DCI schedules uplink transmission of a TB with/to one or two TRPs based on number of SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) associated to indication by the DCI. If the indication by the DCI indicates one SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) (e.g., either SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_xi or SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_yi in  FIG. 11 ), (UE considers) the DCI schedules uplink transmission of a TB with/to one TRP and/or there are no additional uplink transmission of the TB with/to the other TRP (according to the DCI). If the indication by the DCI indicates two SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) (SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_xi and SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_yi in  FIG. 11 ), (UE considers) the DCI schedules uplink transmission of a TB with/to two TRPs.

     Each of the one or more SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) could associate to one of the first one or more SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) and/or one of the second one or more SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi). 
     For example, in  FIG. 16 , a UE could be configured with a first set of SRI-PUSCHPowerControl for an UL BWP for a serving cell. The UE could be configured a first one or more SRI-PUSCHPowerControl for TRP0 (e.g., SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_xi from the first set of SRI-PUSCHPowerControl). The UE could be configured a second one or more SRI-PUSCHPowerControl for TRP1 (e.g., SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_yi from the first set of SRI-PUSCHPowerControl). In this example, code-point “0000” could associate to SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x0 and SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_y0 (i=0). In other words, code-point “0000” could indicate uplink transmission of a TB to/with two TRPs. In another example, code-point “0001” could associate to SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x1 (i=1). In other words, code-point “0001” could indicate uplink transmission of a TB to/with one TRP (e.g., TRP0).

     Based on the associated SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) by the code-point of the SRI field in the DCI, UE could derive/identify the first specific P0/alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index and the second specific P0/alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index. 
     In certain embodiments, the first one or more parameters (SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_xi) included in the one or more SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_xi are associated to the first set of P0/alpha value/pair of P0 and alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index parameter(s). 
     In certain embodiments, the second one or more parameters (SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_yi) included in the one or more SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_xi are associated to the first set of P0/alpha value/pair of P0 and alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index parameter(s). 
     For example, in  FIG. 16 , the UE may receive a DCI format 0_1 or DCI format 0_2 with SRI field indicative of code-point “0000” associated to SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_x0. SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_x0 may comprise the first one or more parameters (associated to or configured by SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x0) and the second one or more parameters (associated to or configured by SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_y0). According to SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x0, the first specific P0 and the first specific alpha value is derived from P0/alpha index configured in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x0. According to SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x0, the first specific PL RS is derived from PL RS index/ID configured in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x0. According to SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x0, the first specific closed loop index is derived from closed loop index configured in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x0. According to SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_y0, the second specific P0 and the second specific alpha value is derived from P0/alpha index configured in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_y0. According to SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_y0, the second specific PL RS is derived from PL RS index/ID configured in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_y0. According to SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_y0, the second specific closed loop index is derived from closed loop index configured in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_y0. 
     Alternatively, according to closed loop index in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x0 and/or in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_y0, UE could identify that SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x0 is associated to which TRP (e.g., l=0 corresponds to the first TRP/TRP0, l=1 corresponds to the second TRP/TRP1). More specifically, whether SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_x0 is used for determining the first one or more parameters or the second one or more parameters is determined based on closed loop index in SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP0_xi or SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl_TRP1_yi. 
     The UE could be configured with a first set of P0/alpha value/pair of P0 and alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index parameter(s)/SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) on an (activated) UL BWP in the serving cell. 
     The UE could be configured with a first one or more P0/alpha value/pair of P0 and alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index parameter(s)/SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) on an (activated) UL BWP in the serving cell. 
     In certain embodiments, the first set of P0/alpha value/pair of P0 and alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index parameter(s)/SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) are shared by or associated to the first TRP and/or the second TRP.

     Each/one of P0/alpha value/pair of P0 and alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index parameter(s)/SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) (from the first set of P0/alpha value/pair of P0 and alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index parameter(s)/SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi)) could comprise one parameter for indicating TRP related information. 
     Each/one of P0/alpha value/pair of P0 and alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index parameter(s)/SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi) (from the first one or more P0/alpha value/pair of P0 and alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index parameter(s)/SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl(_xi)) could comprise one parameter for indicating TRP related information. 
     The TRP related information could be panel information of the UE (e.g., which UE panel for transmission and/or reception). 
     The TRP related information could be CORESETPoolIndex. 
     The TRP related information could be TRP index. 
     In certain embodiments, the first specific P0 is associated to lowest index of entry associated with the one parameter indicative of the first TRP in the first set of P0, and/or the first specific P0 is P0 with lowest ID associated with the one parameter indicative of the first TRP in the first set of P0. 
     In certain embodiments, the second specific P0 is associated to lowest index of entry associated with the one parameter indicative of the second TRP in the first set of P0, and/or the second specific P0 is P0 with lowest ID associated with the one parameter indicative of the second TRP in the first set of P0. 
     In certain embodiments, the first specific alpha value is associated to lowest index of entry associated with the one parameter indicative of the first TRP in the first set of alpha value, and/or the first specific alpha value is alpha value with lowest ID associated with the one parameter indicative of the first TRP in the first set of alpha value. 
     In certain embodiments, the second specific alpha value is associated to lowest index of entry associated with the one parameter indicative of the second TRP in the first set of alpha value, and/or the second specific alpha value is alpha value with lowest ID associated with the one parameter indicative of the second TRP in the first set of alpha value. 
     In certain embodiments, the first specific P0/alpha index is the lowest index associated with the one parameter indicative of the first TRP, and the first specific P0/alpha index is associated to the first set of pair of P0 and alpha value. 
     In certain embodiments, the second specific P0/alpha index is the lowest index associated with the one parameter indicative of the second TRP, and the second specific P0/alpha index is associated to the first set of pair of P0 and alpha value. 
     In certain embodiments, the first specific P0/alpha index is 0. 
     In certain embodiments, the second specific P0/alpha index is 1. 
     For example, in  FIG. 17 , the UE could be configured with one or more (P0 and/or alpha/alpha value)_xi on an UL BWP of a serving cell. One (P0 and/or alpha/alpha value)_xi could comprise one parameter for indicating which TRP. Based on the one parameter, the UE could identify (P0 and/or alpha)_xi belongs to which TRP.  FIG. 17  is an example and it is not limited to be odd and even i for distinguishing TRP0 and TRP1. As for determining a first virtual PHR for the first TRP/TRP0, the UE determines the first virtual PHR based on at least the first specific P0/alpha index which is the lowest index (xi) among (P0 and/or alpha)_xi with the one parameter indicative of TRP0. As for determining a second virtual PHR for the second TRP/TRP1, the UE determines the second virtual PHR based on at least the second specific P0/alpha index which is the lowest index (xi) among (P0 and/or alpha)_xi with the one parameter indicative of TRP1. Assuming x0 is the lowest index among (P0 and/or alpha)_xi with the one parameter indicative of TRP0, the first specific P0 and the first specific alpha value is derived based on (P0 and/or alpha)_x0. Assuming x1 is the lowest index among (P0 and/or alpha)_xi with the one parameter indicative of TRP1, the second specific P0 and the second specific alpha value is derived based on (P0 and/or alpha)_x1.

     A UE can be configured and/or served in a serving cell by a network. 
     The UE can be configured and/or indicated by one or more BWPs. 
     The UE can be indicated and/or activated by an (active) BWP. 
     Preferably in certain embodiments, the UE may be indicated and/or activated by an active DL BWP. 
     Preferably in certain embodiments, the UE may be indicated and/or activated by an active UL BWP. 
     Preferably in certain embodiments, the UE may be configured and/or indicated by an initial BWP. 
     Preferably in certain embodiments, one set of P0/alpha/pair of P0 and alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index/SRS resource set could be replaced by one plurality of P0/alpha/pair of P0 and alpha value/PL RS/closed loop index/SRS resource set. 
     The UE can determine whether a PHR is derived as a real PHR or virtual PHR, based on whether there are uplink resource on the first TRP or on the serving cell (since one of the one or more PHR is triggered and preferably until and including a PDCCH monitoring occasion comprising a DCI scheduling an initial transmission of a transport block). 
     The uplink resource could be PUSCH scheduled by DCI (dynamic grant), PUSCH configured by configured grant, or periodic/semi-persistent sounding reference signal (SRS) transmissions. 
     For example, in  FIG. 21 , DCI 1 is a DCI format 0_1 or DCI format 0_2 scheduling PUSCH for a new uplink transmission of a TB. The TB could comprise or accommodate a MAC CE for PHR or PHR (related) MAC CE. The UE would transmit PHR MAC CE on PUSCH scheduled by DCI 1. 
     For another example, in  FIG. 22 , PUSCH configured by CG is used for a new uplink transmission of a TB. The TB could comprise or accommodate a MAC CE for PHR or PHR (related) MAC CE. The UE would transmit PHR MAC CE on PUSCH configured by the CG. 
     In certain embodiments, the serving cell is an activated serving cell. 
     In certain embodiments, the one or more PHR is type-1 PHR or type-3 PHR. 
     In certain embodiments, the one or more PHR is derived based on actual PUSCH transmission (e.g., a real PH) or derived based on a reference PUSCH transmission (e.g., a virtual PH) or derived based on an actual SRS transmission (e.g., a real PH) or derived based on a reference SRS transmission (e.g., a virtual PH). 
     In certain embodiments, if the UE determines to compute a Type 1 power headroom for the TRP of the cell based on an actual PUSCH transmission (e.g., a real PH), the measured value (e.g., the i-th Type 1 power headroom of the TRP) could be derived based on a formula (defined in [11]): 
         PH   type1,b,f,c ( i,j,q   d   ,l )= P   CMAX,f,c ( i )−{ P   O_PUSCHb,f,c ( j )+10 log 10 (2 μ   ·M   RB,b,f,c   PUSCH ( i ))+α b,f,c ( j )· PL   b,f,c ( q   d )+Δ TF,b,f,c ( i )+ f   b,f,c ( i,l )} [dB]
 
     In certain embodiments, if the UE determines to compute a Type 1 power headroom for the TRP of the cell based on a reference PUSCH transmission (e.g., a virtual PH), the measured value (e.g., the i-th Type 1 power headroom of the TRP) could be derived based on a formula (defined in [11]): 
         PH   type1,b,f,c ( i,j,q   d   ,l )= {tilde over (P)}   CMAX,f,c ( i )−{ P   O_PUSCH,b,f,c ( j )+α b,f,c ( j )· PL   b,f,c ( q   d )+ f   b,f,c ( i,l )} [dB]
 
     In one example, a UE could calculate a i-th of a first (Type 1) PHR for the first TRP using a first pathloss (e.g., PL (q1)  derived from a DL reference signal q1. The UE could calculate the i-th first PHR using a first PUSCH power control adjustment state (e.g., f(i,0). The UE could calculate a i-th second (Type 1) PHR for the second TRP using a second pathloss (e.g., PL (q2) ) derived from a DL reference signal q2. The UE could calculate the second PHR using a second PUSCH power control adjustment state, (e.g., f(i,l)). Preferably, l=0 corresponds to closed loop index 0. Preferably, l=1 corresponds to closed loop index 1. Preferably, P0 corresponds to P O_PUSCH,b,f,c (i) and j=2. Preferably, P0 may be open loop power control parameter, and/or P0 is target received power (expected by a network). Preferably, alpha value corresponds to α b,f,c (j) and j=2. Preferably, alpha value may be open loop power control parameter, and/or alpha value corresponds to pathloss compensation value which could be 0, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6 0.7, 0.8 0.9, or 1. Preferably, PL b,f,c (q d ) is pathloss estimate calculated by the UE using pathloss reference signal with PL RS ID q d . Preferably, PL b,f,c (q d ) is difference between referenceSignalPower and higher layer filtered RSRP, which the higher layer filtered RSRP is derived from the pathloss reference signal with PL RS ID q d . Preferably, f b,f,c (i,l) is PUSCH power control adjustment state which is closed loop power control parameter associated to closed loop index l=0 or 1. 
     The i-th first PHR could be a power headroom (report) based on actual PUSCH transmission while the i-th second PHR could be a power headroom (report) based on reference PUSCH transmission. Alternatively, the i-th first PHR could be a power headroom (report) based on reference PUSCH transmission while the i-th second PHR could be a power headroom (report) based on actual PUSCH transmission.
