1. A method of communication, the method comprising:
transmitting, from a network device to a terminal device, a plurality of Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) candidates, the plurality of PDCCH candidates corresponding to downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a transmission from the terminal device to the network device, wherein each of the plurality of PDCCH candidates comprises a same transmission power control (TPC) command for power control of the transmission;
decoding the transmission from the terminal device, wherein power of the transmission is controlled based on the same TPC command comprised in one of the plurality of PDCCH candidates; and
prior to transmitting a set of repetitions of the DCI, transmitting, to the terminal device, an indication that repetitions of the DCI are enabled.
