Abstract

A Fifth Generation New Radio (5GNR)/Long Term Evolution (LTE) User Equipment (UE) controls power consumption. The 5GNR/LTE UE selects a 5GNR transmit power and an LTE transmit power. The UE transmits 5GNR signals at the 5GNR transmit power and transmits LTE signals at the LTE transmit power. The UE averages Uplink (UL) Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) Block Error Rate (BLER) for an error sampling period. The UE compares the average UL HARQ BLER to an error threshold. When the average UL HARQ BLER exceeds the threshold, the UE decreases 5GNR transmit power and increases LTE transmit power. The UE may average UL path loss for a loss sampling period and compare the average UL path loss to a loss threshold. The UE may decrease 5GNR transmit power and increase LTE transmit power when the UL HARQ BLER and the UL path loss both exceed their thresholds.
