    摘要: A proposed 3GPP LTE protocol enhancement disclosed herein, enables an eNB to interface with its network core to achieve optimal resource reallocations and bearer modifications necessary to minimize negative impact on user experience in the events of LSA spectrum reclamation. A method for radio spectrum resource reallocation at an evolved Node B (eNB) comprises acquiring, from an incumbent, Licensed Shared Access (LSA) radio spectrum resource, receiving, from an Operator Administration and Management (OA&M) entity, a directive to relinquish the acquired LSA spectrum resource, performing an analysis of optimal spectrum resource reallocation for determining a proposed reallocation of remaining spectrum resources, communicating, to a network core, the proposed reallocation of remaining spectrum resources, receiving, from the network core, instructions for reallocating the remaining spectrum resources, wherein the instructions are based on the communicated proposal, and reallocating remaining spectrum resources according to the received instructions.

    摘要: Embodiments of an Evolved Node-B (eNB) to support Carrier Aggregation (CA) of a licensed frequency band and an unlicensed frequency band are disclosed herein. The eNB may transmit traffic packets on an unlicensed channel in the unlicensed frequency band to one or more User Equipments (UEs) assigned to the unlicensed channel. The eNB may receive, on the licensed frequency band, interference indicators for the unlicensed channel from at least a portion of the UEs assigned to the unlicensed channel. In addition, the eNB may transmit, on the licensed frequency band, a multicast vacate channel control message for the unlicensed channel. The message may be for reception at one or more of the UEs assigned to the unlicensed channel.
