- a power headroom report process may be used to provide a PHR to a serving eNB.
- an eNB 110 may receive a PHR from a UE 120.
- the UE 120 may transmit the PHR to the eNB 110 via a power headroom report process 130 so as to provide power headroom information to the eNB 110.
- the eNB 110 may determine a resource allocation scheme for the UE 120.
- a PHR In the conventional LTE system, three kinds of PHRs are defined, namely, a PHR, an extended PHR and a dual connectivity PHR.
- the PHR is used in a single carrier system and the extended PHR is used in a carrier aggregation system.
- the extended PHR is further designed based on the following more detailed cases: the maximum number of supported carriers is smaller than 8; the maximum number of supported carriers is larger than 8 and smaller than 32; and PUCCH is supported in a secondary cell.
- an omni-antenna is used at a UE side (such as the UE 120), it is only necessary to report a PHR for each carrier and the PHR is relatively simple.

- FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example scenario 200 for different transmitting and/or receiving beams for PUSCH in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure.
- an eNB such as the eNB 110 and a UE such as the UE 120 and a UE 250 need to manage beams at both ends of the link appropriately.
- three beam management procedures corresponding to P-l, P-2 and P-3 on the downlink and U-l, U-2 and U-3 on the uplink are supported in 3GPP to complete beam acquisition, beam adjustment and beam recovery.
- the beam management procedures it is possible to determine one or more beams/beam pairs for transmission of a control channel and a data channel.
- the UEs may have different requirements for beams. For some UEs, less optimized beams may be selected to ensure multiplexing with other UEs. As shown in FIG. 2, the UE 120 needs to be multiplexed with the UE 250.
- the UE 120 may have two beam paths 210 and 220.

- the beam path 220 may include a beam pair of an eNB transmitting beam 221 and a UE receiving beam 222.
- the link using the beam path 210 has better channel quality, to be multiplexed with the UE 250, the UE 120 still needs to change the PUSCH transmitting beam from the beam path 210 to the beam path 220.
- PHRs such as PHRs of the UE 120 for the beam paths 210 and 220, respectively
- the eNB 110 which may schedule UE 120 on the beam path 210 or 220.

- FIG. 3 to illustrate this point in greater detail.
- FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a communication method 300 implemented at a UE in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure.
- the method 300 may be, for example, implemented at the UE 120 shown in FIG. 1, or the UE 120 or the UE 250 shown in FIG. 2.
- a beam-based PHR is generated.
- the beam-based PHR refers to a PHR generated for a specific beam and associated with the beam.
- the PHR according to embodiments of the present disclosure is the beam-level PHR.
- the generated PHR is transmitted to an eNB (such as the eNB 110 shown in FIG. 1) for use in resource allocation management.
- an eNB such as the eNB 110 shown in FIG. 1
- it may be used in resource scheduling and power control as well as in any other proper processing. It is to be understood that the present disclosure is not intended to limit the use of the PHR in any manner.
- the PHR may be reported only for beams utilized for current transmission.
- a UE such as the UE 120
- FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating an example process 400 for reporting a PHR in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure.
- a set of beams for the PHR is determined.
- the set of beams may include one or more beams/beam pairs.
- the beams/beam pairs refer to at least one of beams or beam pairs. It is realized that a larger set of beams would cause much overhead in a PHR report while a smaller set of beams would bring limitation on scheduling flexibility, that is, limitation on the number of beams/beam pairs possibly to be scheduled for uplink data transmission.
- the set of beams may be determined based on beams for transmitting sounding reference signals (SRS) and/or beam pairs for transmitting and measuring the SRS.
- SRS sounding reference signals
- the beam management U-3 step namely, through coarse beam identification and fine adjustment, it is possible to determine one or more possible beams/beam pairs for transmission of a control channel and a data channel.
- a UE such as the UE 120, may trigger SRS to be transmitted and measured on possible beams/beam pairs possibly to be scheduled.
- the eNB 110 may obtain both channel quality information and the PHR, and the eNB 110 may perform the scheduling flexibility on the possible one or more beams/beam pairs.
- the set of beams for the PHR may include the beams for the SRS transmission and measurement. For example, it is possible to make the beams in the set of beams for the PHR consistent with the beams for the SRS transmission and measurement.
- a pre-configured maximum number of beams for the PHR may be used to further determine the set of beams for the PHR, thereby avoiding too large overhead for the PHR.
- the set of beams may be determined based on beams for a beam information report.
- the set of beams for the PHR may include the N selected beams for the beam information report. For example, it is possible to make the beams in the set of beams for the PHR consistent with the N selected beams for the beam information report.
- the set of beams for the PHR may be determined based on a determined set of beams received from an eNB.
- the set of beams for the PHR may include all the beams in the determined set of beams.
- beams in the set of beams for PHR may be consistent with beams in the determined set of beams.
- the determined set of beams may be obtained by an eNB based on a beam information report from a UE. It is to be understood that the determined set of beams may also be obtained in any other proper manner currently known or to be developed in the future in the art, not limited to the particular manner illustrated herein.
- the above depicts the determination of the set of beams for the PHR at 410. Then, at 420, power headroom information related to each beam in the set of beams may be determined. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 2, the UE 120 may determine power headroom information for the beam pairs 211 and 212 and the beam pairs 221 and 222 and transmit it to the eNB 110 for use in, for example, resource scheduling.
- the power headroom information may include at least one of the following: difference between nominal UE maximum transmission power and potential power for uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) transmission based on one or more beams per activated serving cell; and difference between the nominal UE maximum transmission power and the potential power for UL-SCH and PUCCH based on one or more beams over the primary cell and the secondary cell.
- UL-SCH uplink shared channel
- the power headroom information may be represented by any proper matric parameter currently known or to be developed in the future in the art, and not limited to the example illustrated above, as long as the matric parameter is measured for the beam.
- a power headroom difference between different beams in the set of beams for the PHR and in response to the power headroom power difference being below a predetermined threshold, determine reference power headroom as the power headroom information for the different beams. For example, if the power headroom difference among the multiple possible beams/beam pairs is smaller than, for instance, a granularity (ldB) or a plurality of granularities of the PHR report in a PHR table, one power headroom, namely, the reference power headroom, may be reported, for the possible plurality of beams/beam pairs, thereby further reducing PHR report signaling.
- beam indication information related to each beam in the set of beams may be determined.
- the beam indication information is used to indicate to an eNB that the PHR is for which beam/beam pair.
- an index corresponding to each beam or beam pair in the set of beams can be used as the beam indication information.
- the index of the beam/beam pair may be reported with the corresponding PHR value in a MAC control unit (CE) for the PHR.
- a bit may be used to indicate the presence or absence of a PHR for each beam/beam pair.
- an eNB needs to notify to a UE which transmitting beam is optimal, and thus, the eNB will acquire a set of possible beams/beam pairs for a SRS. For instance, in the case that an eNB further determines possible beams/beam pairs based on the beam information report from a UE, the eNB will also acquire a set of possible beams/beam pairs for the PHR.
- a UE may determine a set of potential beams for the PHR and generate the beam indication information by indicating, with a corresponding bit value, whether a beam in the set of potential beams is present in the set of beams for the PHR.
- a UE may determine the set of potential beams based on the beam information report transmitted to an eNB (such as the eNB 110 in FIG. 1). For example, a UE may determine beams in the beam information report as beams in the set of potential beams.
- a UE may generate the beam indication information by indicating, with a corresponding bit value, whether a beam in the set of possible beams is present in the set of beams for the PHR determined at 410. For example, it is possible to indicate the presence of the PHR for the beam with 1 and indicate the absence of the PHR for the potential beam with 0.
- a set of potential beams may also be determined in the beam information report from a UE, and in combination with the received beam indication information, power headroom information for a UE specific beam may be acquired from the PHR.
- the power headroom information and the beam indication information is determined at 420 and 430, at 440, the power headroom information and the corresponding beam indication information is transmitted to an eNB for use by the eNB in resource allocation management, thereby providing flexibility and high efficiency of scheduling.
- the beam-based PHR report process has been described heretofore. However, due to mobility and rotation of a UE or blockage, the set of beams including one or more beams/beam pairs for a UE may change. In this case, the set of beams for the PHR will be updated and the corresponding PHR report will be triggered.
- UE may generate the beam-based PHR periodically, which may be realized by a pre-configured cycle.
- a UE may generate the beam-based PHR in response to a variation of a path loss of the beam.
- a UE may generate the PHR in response to the variation of the path loss of the beam exceeding a predetermined threshold. For example, it is possible to generate the PHR only for beams in the set of beams for the PHR whose variations of path losses exceed the predetermined threshold. For example, the PHR may be generated for all the beams in the set of beams for the PHR.
- a UE may generate the beam-based PHR in response to a change of the beam.
- a UE may generate the PHR in response to addition of beams/beam pairs in the set of beams. For example, the PHR is generated only for newly added beams in the set of beams for the PHR. For instance, the PHR is generated for all the beams in the set of beams for the PHR.
- FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a communication method 500 implemented at an eNB in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure.

- an eNB may receive a beam information report from a UE and determine the set of beams based on the beam information report.
- an eNB may further determine a smaller or equal set of beams from the N selected beams and transmit it to a UE. It is to be understood that the set of beams may be determined in any proper manner currently known or to be developed in the future in the art, but not limited to the above manner.
- an eNB may receive the PHR generated by a UE in response to a variation of a path loss of the beam exceeding a predetermined threshold and only for beams in the set of beams for the PHR whose variations of path losses exceed the predetermined threshold.
