ha, PO- PUSCH-AlphaSet, SRI-PUSCH-PowerControl as well as the SRI field in DCI format 0_0 and 0_1. The quantity Po is provided as part of the power-control configuration and would typically depend on the target data rate but also on the noise and interference level experienced at the receiver. NPUSCH(i) denotes the bandwidth of PUSCH resource assignment expressed in number of resource blocks. akim(j) is a network-configurable parameter corresponding to fractional path loss compensation which is determined by RRC parameters msg3-Alpha, ConfiguredGrantConfig, p0-PUSCH-Alpha, PO-PUSCH-AlphaSet, SRI-PUSCH- PowerControl as well as the SRI field in DCI format 0_0 and 0_1. In the case of frac- tional path loss compensation (a <1), the path loss will not be fully compensated, and New Radio Access Physical Layer Aspects (Part 2) 647 the average received power will vary depending on the location of the device within the cell. In this case, the received power is lower for devices with higher path loss located at larger distances from the cell site. This must then be compensated by adjusting the uplink data rate. The advantage of fractional path loss compensation is reduced interfer- ence to neighboring cells, which is achieved at the expense of larger variation in the ser- vice quality, with reduced peak data-rate availability for devices closer to the cell edge. PLklm(qd) is the downlink path loss estimate in dB calculated by the UE using reference signal index qd for the active downlink BWP. for Ks = 1.25 (provided by deltaMCS); oth- erwise related to the modulation scheme and channel coding rate used for the PUSCH transmission. The parameter bits per resource element (BPRE) is given by BPRE = -1 Kr/NRE for PUSCH with UL-SCH data and BPRE = QmR/Bottself offset for CSI transmission in PUSCH without UL-SCH data wherein Qm is the modulation order and R is the target code rate. This term models how the required received power varies when the number of information BPRE changes due to different modulation schemes and channel-co
