Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may use an increased transmit power for one or more instances of an autonomous uplink transmission. For example, a UE may be configured with a repetition window including multiple transmission time intervals (TTIs) and may identify a subset of TTIs within the window that may be unavailable for autonomous uplink transmissions. The UE may adjust transmit power or transmit a scheduling request based on the presence of unavailable TTIs. In some examples, the UE may increase the transmit power by an amount that is based on a number of unavailable TTIs, or a fixed amount, or a combination thereof. In some examples, a UE with limited transmit power (e.g., under a maximum transmit power) may dynamically transmit a report to a base station that includes a request to modify a communications scheme used by the UE.
