Unlicensed spectrum sharing method, base station using the same, and user equipment using the same

摘要

The disclosure is directed to an unlicensed spectrum sharing method that is applicable to a user equipment and a base station, a user equipment using the same method, and a base station using the same method. In one of the exemplary embodiments, the disclosure is directed to an unlicensed spectrum sharing method applicable to a user equipment. The method would include receiving a configuration message over a first component carrier in a licensed spectrum to operate in an unlicensed spectrum, receiving a user message of the UE over a second component carrier in the unlicensed spectrum in response to receiving the configuration message, wherein the first component carrier and the second component carrier are aggregated carriers, and receiving a re-configuration message over the first component carrier in the licensed spectrum to operate in the unlicensed spectrum.

主权项

1. An unlicensed spectrum sharing method applicable to a user equipment, comprising:
receiving a configuration message over a first component carrier in a licensed spectrum to operate in an unlicensed spectrum, wherein the configuration message comprises a delay time value associated with activating a second component carrier in the unlicensed spectrum, and the delay time value is used to delay the activation of the second component carrier in the unlicensed spectrum; receiving a message of the UE over the second component carrier in the unlicensed spectrum in response to receiving the configuration message, wherein the first component carrier and the second component carrier are aggregated carriers, wherein the configuration message activates a first time slot of the second component carrier and setting dormant a second time slot of the second component carrier; and receiving a re-configuration message over the first component carrier in the licensed spectrum to operate in the unlicensed spectrum.
