1. An apparatus comprising:
a memory storing program instructions;
processor circuitry configured to execute the program instructions to:
receive, from a base station, configuration information indicating a first transmission power control parameter and a second transmission power control parameter;
provide for transmission to the base station, after receiving the configuration information, a first plurality of repetitions of a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) over one or more slots, wherein a transmission power of one or more of the first plurality of repetitions of the PUCCH is based on the first transmission power control parameter; and
provide for transmission to the base station, after providing the first plurality of repetitions of the PUCCH, a second plurality of repetitions of the PUCCH in one or more additional slots, wherein a transmission power of one or more of the second plurality of repetitions of the PUCCH is based on the second transmission power control parameter.
