Abstract:
A transmit power control rule for device-to-device (D2D) transmissions may not be necessary during periods in which no uplink transmissions are scheduled to be received by an enhanced Node B base station (eNB). When uplink transmissions are not scheduled to be received by the eNB, the eNB may send a transmit power control (TPC) command to a D2D capable user equipment (D2D UE) that instructs the D2D UE to perform a D2D transmission at a pre-defined transmit power level (e.g., maximum transmit power level). When uplink transmissions are scheduled to be received the eNB, the eNB may send a TPC command to the D2D UE that instructs the D2D UE to perform a D2D transmission at a transmit power level defined by a power control rule.

Claim (Index 16):
A user equipment (UE) for power control command for device-to-device (D2D) communications in a wireless communication network, the UE comprising:\n a non-transitory memory storage comprising instructions; and one or more processors in communication with the non-transitory memory storage, wherein the one or more processors execute the instructions to: receive a first TPC command from a base station, the first TPC command instructing the UE to perform a first D2D transmission at a transmit power level defined by a power control rule; perform the first D2D transmission at the transmit power level defined by the power control rule, the first D2D transmission coinciding with one or more uplink random access channel (RACH) transmissions; receive a second TPC command from the base station, the second TPC command instructing the UE to perform a second D2D transmission at a pre-defined transmit power level; and perform the second D2D transmission at the pre-defined transmit power level, the second D2D transmission not coinciding with an uplink RACH transmission, and the transmit power level defined by the power control rule being lower than the pre-defined transmit power level.
