HARQ DESIGN FOR LTE IN UNLICENSED SPECTRUM UTILIZING INDIVIDUAL ACK/NACK

摘要

Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for wireless communications. In one method, a sequence number corresponding to a data frame and one or more data subframes of the data frame may be transmitted over an unlicensed spectrum to a user equipment (UE), and hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback for the one or more data subframes may be received over the unlicensed spectrum, from the UE, when the sequence number corresponding to the data frame is received by the UE in a specified order. In another method, a sequence number corresponding to a data frame and HARQ feedback may be transmitted over an unlicensed spectrum to a UE, and one or more data subframes may be received over the unlicensed spectrum, from the UE, in response to the HARQ feedback when the sequence number corresponding to the data frame is received by the UE in a specified order.
