MAXIMUM TIME FOR UNLICENSED SECONDARY CELL DETECTION, MEASUREMENTS AND ACTIVATION IN LICENSED ASSISTED ACCESS

摘要

Appropriate timing may beneficial in various communication systems. For example, Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) and LTE Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) may benefit from appropriate maximum time determinations for unlicensed secondary cell (SCell) detection, measurements, and activation. A method can include determining a window for a reference signal. The method can also include communicating based on the determined window. For example, the method can include transmitting the reference signal based on the determined window. Alternatively, or in addition, the method can include providing measurement reports based on the reference signal received within the window.
