Uplink scheduling with power control command in an FDD half-duplex network
An efficient way to perform power control and to communicate data with a base station is desired. According to an aspect, the apparatus generates a downlink grant for a device, the downlink grant indicating to the device subsets of uplink resources allocated for transmitting data segments and subsets of downlink resources for receiving power control commands for respective data segments, the subsets of the uplink resources being non-concurrent with the subsets of the downlink resources. The apparatus transmits the downlink grant to the device. The apparatus receives, from the device, a first uplink transmission in a first subset of the uplink resources based on the transmitted downlink grant. The apparatus generates a first power control command based on the received first uplink transmission. The apparatus transmits, to the device, the first power control command in a first subset of the downlink resources. The apparatus may be a base station.
