Abstract

A wireless device receives a downlink control information comprising: a first field indicating a number of scheduled time intervals; a modulation and coding scheme field; a transmit power control field; and a listen before talk (LBT) field indicating timing information for performing an LBT procedure. The LBT procedure for transmission in the number of scheduled time intervals is performed based on the timing information. A transmission power of each time interval in the number of scheduled time intervals is determined based on a same closed loop adjustment factor and the transmit power control field, wherein the transmission power of each time interval of the number of scheduled time intervals is adjusted in response to a total transmit power for a respective time interval exceeding a power value. The wireless device transmits, in each time interval of number of scheduled time intervals, employing the modulation and coding scheme field.

Claims (56)

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by a wireless device, a downlink control information comprising:

a first field indicating a number of scheduled time intervals;

a modulation and coding scheme field;

a transmit power control field; and

a listen before talk (LBT) field indicating timing information for performing an LBT procedure;

performing the LBT procedure for transmission in the number of scheduled time intervals based on the timing information;

determining a transmission power of each time interval in the number of scheduled time intervals based on a same closed loop adjustment factor and the transmit power control field, wherein the transmission power of each time interval of the number of scheduled time intervals is adjusted in response to a total transmit power for a respective time interval exceeding a power value; and

transmitting, in each time interval of number of scheduled time intervals, employing the modulation and coding scheme field.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmission power of each time interval of the number of scheduled time intervals is further determined based on a pathloss value.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the receiving the downlink control information further comprises:

receiving a first downlink control information via a wireless device specific search space of a first control channel; and

receiving a second downlink control information via a common search space of a second control channel of a licensed assisted access cell, wherein the number of scheduled time intervals are time intervals of the licensed assisted access cell.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the downlink control information further comprises a cyclic shift field applicable to the number of scheduled time intervals, the cyclic shift employed for transmitting a demodulation reference signal.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the downlink control information further comprises a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) identifier.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining the transmission power of each time interval in the number of scheduled time intervals is further performed based on a measured pathloss value.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein a calculation of the closed loop adjustment factor employs a transmit power control command in the transmit power control field.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the LBT procedure indicates that a channel is clear when a detected channel energy is below a threshold.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein each time interval in the number of scheduled time intervals is associated with a different hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the downlink control information further comprises a redundancy version field for each of the number of scheduled time intervals.

11. A wireless device comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:

receive a downlink control information comprising:

a first field indicating a number of scheduled time intervals;

a modulation and coding scheme field;

a transmit power control field; and

a listen before talk (LBT) field indicating timing information for performing an LBT procedure;

transmit, in each time interval of number of scheduled time intervals, employing the modulation and coding scheme field.

12. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the transmission power of each time interval of the number of scheduled time intervals is further determined based on a pathloss value.

13. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, when receiving the downlink control information, further cause the wireless device to:

receive a first downlink control information via a wireless device specific search space of a first control channel; and

receive a second downlink control information via a common search space of a second control channel of a licensed assisted access cell, wherein the number of scheduled time intervals are time intervals of the licensed assisted access cell.

14. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the downlink control information further comprises a cyclic shift field applicable to the number of scheduled time intervals, the cyclic shift employed for transmitting a demodulation reference signal.

15. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the downlink control information further comprises a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) identifier.

16. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the determination of the transmission power of each time interval in the number of scheduled time intervals is further performed based on a measured pathloss value.

17. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein a calculation of the closed loop adjustment factor employs a transmit power control command in the transmit power control field.

18. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the LBT procedure indicates that a channel is clear when a detected channel energy is below a threshold.

19. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein each time interval in the number of scheduled time intervals is associated with a different hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier.

20. A system comprising:
