Methods, apparatuses, and systems directed to adaptive uplink power control in a wireless network are provided. Among the apparatuses is a wireless transmit/receive unit that may include any of a receiver, a transmitter, and a processor coupled to the receiver and the transmitter. The processor may identify, from a plurality of transmissions, a first group of transmissions for transmission during a first transmission opportunity of a first uplink. The processor may determine a first power level for the first group of transmissions based, at least in part, on a characteristic of the first transmission opportunity and a characteristic of a second transmission opportunity of a second uplink, wherein the second transmission opportunity may be usable for transmission of a second group of the plurality of transmissions. The first and second characteristics may define respective time resources, where at least some of the first and second time resources overlap. The transmitter may transmit the first group of transmissions at least at the first power level.
