Power control
First Claim
1. A method for performing per-carrier power control on a network side of a wireless system, the method comprising:
- calculating, by circuitry of a network entity, a desired cumulative output power value for a combination of at least two uplink carriers of a terminal device, said two uplink carriers operating on different bands, the calculation being based on an intermodulation power equation for the intermodulation power of a specific order intermodulation distortion of the at least two uplink carriers;
setting, by the circuitry, an output power value for each of the at least two uplink carriers of the terminal device based on the calculated desired cumulative output power value; and
providing, for the terminal device, a power control instruction for the at least two uplink carriers at the terminal device in accordance with the output power values set for the at least two uplink carriers.

Abstract
Measures for enabling per-carrier power control for inter-band multi-carrier capable devices, such as for example inter-band carrier aggregation capable devices. Such measures may for example comprise calculating a desired cumulative output power value for a combination of at least two uplink carriers of a terminal device, said two uplink carriers operating on different bands, setting an output power value for each of the at least two uplink carriers of the terminal device based on the calculated desired cumulative output power value, and providing, for the terminal device, a power control instruction for the at least two uplink carriers at the terminal device in accordance with the output power values set for the at least two uplink carriers.
