METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SENDING DISCOVERY SIGNAL ON UNLICENSED CARRIER, AND ACCESS POINT

摘要

A method and device for occupying an unlicensed carrier and sending a discovery signal, and an access point, said method comprising: configuring the parameters of a discovery signal sent on an unlicensed carrier by an access point; said access point sending said discovery signal on said unlicensed carrier. The technical solution of the present invention reduces, each time the access point preempts a resource, the time for said access point to process items other than data transmission (such as synchronization), and increases the spectral efficiency of the unlicensed carrier.
