摘要:
Techniques for communicating UCI (Uplink Control Information) in unlicensed band systems are discussed. One example embodiment comprises a memory; and one or more processors configured to: generate an ePUCCH (enhanced Physical Uplink Control Channel) in a subframe via a first interlace of an unlicensed frequency band, wherein the first interlace comprises a plurality of non-contiguous RBs (Resource Blocks) equally spaced in a frequency domain; generate a UCI message for the unlicensed frequency band, wherein the UCI message comprises one or more of HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request) ACK (Acknowledgement) feedback, CSI (Channel State Information), or a SR (Scheduling Request); and map the UCI message to the first interlace for the ePUCCH.
摘要:
Described are mechanisms and methods for supporting Channel State Information (CSI) measurement and reporting, and for supporting Radio Resource Management (RRM) measurement and reporting, under License Assisted Access (LAA) with dynamic power sharing. An eNB may comprise one or more processors to generate a maximum number of Component Carriers (CCs) and a number of active CCs to a UE. The eNB may then be operable to process a reported quality rating from the UE and generate a scaled quality rating based upon the reported quality rating, the maximum number of CCs, and the number of active CCs. A UE may comprise one or more processors to process a reference signal transmission from an eNB, to generate an unfiltered reference signal transmission based upon the reference signal transmission, and to calculate a quality rating based upon the unfiltered reference signal transmission.
摘要:
Technology for a user equipment (UE) operable to perform measurement reporting for selected cells used in Licensed-Assisted Access (LAA) is disclosed. The UE can detect a plurality of cells. The UE can select a subset of cells from the plurality of cells for measurement reporting. The subset of cells can be: configured for use in LAA; associated with unlicensed carriers; and associated with one or more of: a common serving eNodeB or a common PLMN. The UE can perform measurement reporting for the subset of cells. Measurement reports for the subset of cells can be processed for transmission from the UE to the common serving eNodeB associated with the subset of cells.
摘要:
A License Assisted Access (LAA) enhanced NodeB (eNB), user equipment (UE) and communication methods therebetween operating in a Long Term Evolution unlicensed band (LTE-U) are generally described. The eNB may transmit a request to the UE for information regarding a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) over which the UE may be able to communicate. The WLAN information may include an LTE-U channel and time window for reporting. The UE may obtain the WLAN information through communication with an access point (AP). Measurement information of the LTE-U channel may also be obtained by or on behalf of the UE. The UE may transmit the WLAN information to the eNB. The eNB may use the WLAN information or submit the WLAN information to a network entity to perform channel selection, UE grouping or localization, appointing delegate UEs to perform channel sensing or scheduling UEs in a same group or proximity.
