A method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided that enable use of a full transmission power for a UE having a first set of coherent antenna ports that is non-coherent to a second set of coherent antenna ports. The apparatus determines a transmission power for a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission from at least one antenna port including splitting the transmission power among multiple antenna ports having non-zero power without scaling the transmission power, and wherein the UE includes at least a first antenna port that is non-coherent to a second antenna port. Then, the apparatus transmits the PUSCH transmission using the determined transmission power.
