CLASSIFICATION-BASED ADAPTIVE TRANSMISSION IN UNLICENSED SPECTRUM

摘要

Techniques for communication management between Radio Access Technologies (RATs) sharing operating spectrum in an unlicensed band of radio frequencies are disclosed. Interference may be mitigated by, for example, receiving signaling via a resource. A first RAT may be used to receive the signaling. Based on the received signaling, utilization of the resource associated with the first RAT may be identified. The identified utilization of the resource may be classified based on an attribute associated with the received signaling and a plurality of thresholds associated with the attribute. The plurality of thresholds may define different classes of utilization. Communication by a second RAT over the resource may be adapted based on the classified utilization of the resource.

1. A method of communication management between Radio Access Technologies (RATs) sharing operating spectrum in an unlicensed band of radio frequencies, comprising:
receiving signaling via a medium, wherein a first RAT is used to receive the signaling; identifying utilization of the medium associated with the first RAT based on the received signaling; classifying the identified utilization of the medium based on an attribute associated with the received signaling and a plurality of thresholds associated with the attribute, wherein the plurality of thresholds define different classes of utilization; and adapting communication by a second RAT over the medium based on the classified utilization of the medium.
