20. A method for managing use of dynamic power sharing for dual carrier operation, which includes respective communications via a master cell group and a secondary cell group, the method comprising:
identifying an allowed tolerance corresponding to a maximum expected possible deviation between a power level at which the processor requests that a communication via the master cell group be set and an actual power level at which the communication via the master cell group is transmitted;
determining a level of a lower bound of a maximum configured power of the secondary cell group, which enables emission requirements to be met during the dual carrier operation for communications via each of the master cell group and the secondary cell group, as well as total power constraints for any overall communications, while accounting for the allowed tolerance identified relative to any communication via the master cell group; and
setting the lower bound of the maximum configured power for a carrier of the secondary cell group at the determined level.
