Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices and computer readable media for communication. A method comprises determining, at a first terminal device, a time window during which a second terminal device is to filter Sidelink Reference Signal Received Power (SL-RSRP) of sidelink transmissions received from the first terminal device; receiving, from the second terminal device, the filtered SL-RSRP during the time window; estimating a sidelink path loss based on the filtered SL-RSRP; and applying the sidelink path loss to power control of at least one subsequent sidelink transmission from the first terminal device to the second terminal device. In this way, the SL path loss can be estimated more accurately and reasonably, and thus the power control based on the SL path loss can be performed more effectively.
