SCHEDULING MULTIPLE SUBFRAMES IN UNLICENSED SPECTRUM

摘要

According to some embodiments, a method for use in a user equipment (UE) transmitting uplink data in an unlicensed spectrum comprises, from a network node, an indication of one or more subframes to use for transmitting uplink data. and receiving a link acknowledgment. Each subframe includes a plurality of symbols. The method further includes obtaining an indication of a listen-before-speak (LBT) type. The LBT type indicates the type of LBT procedure that the UE should perform before transmitting uplink data. The method includes, using the obtained LBT type, determining at least one of a start symbol and a stop symbol for transmitting uplink data, and transmitting uplink data according to at least one of the determined start symbol and the determined stop symbol. step further.
