    Abstract: A method and network node for controlling power of uplink transmissions from a user node when switching between a first operating mode and a second operating mode. The network node signals to the user node a first value of a maximum allowed transmit power to be applied when operating in the first operating mode and a second value of the maximum allowed transmit power to be applied when operating in the second operating mode. The user node then uses a transmit power not exceeding the first value when transmitting radio signals in the first operating mode, and uses a transmit power not exceeding the second value when transmitting radio signals in the second operating mode. The user node itself thereby regulates the transmit power depending on opera mode without requiring further signalling from the network node.
