Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5 th -Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4 th -Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. The present disclosure discloses a method and an apparatus for data transmission. The method comprises: performing data transmission in a listen-before-talk mode; obtaining HARQ-ACK information of transmitted data bursts; and adjusting a contention window size CWS for carrier sensing to be performed before transmission of a next data burst based on HARQ-ACK information of reference data, wherein the reference data refers to a chosen PDSCH or PUSCH in a reference slot in a reference data burst selected from the transmitted data bursts. The method of the present disclosure may effectively reduce transmission collision between different nodes.

Claims (20)

1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

performing a first data transmission in a listen-before-talk (LBT) mode;

obtaining hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information corresponding to a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) on which the first data transmission is performed;

adjusting a contention window size (CWS) for performing a second data transmission in the LBT mode based on the HARQ-ACK information in case that the PUSCH is transmitted over all resources allocated for the PUSCH; and

maintaining a previous CWS for performing the second data transmission in the LBT mode in case that the PUSCH is not transmitted over all resources allocated for the PUSCH.

2. The method according to claim 1 ,

wherein the HARQ-ACK information is associated with a code block group transport indicator (CBGTI) in case that data transmission is performed per code block group (CBG).

3. The method according to claim 2 ,

wherein the HARQ-ACK information is identified as an acknowledgement (ACK) in case that a bit of the CBGTI is configured with 0.

4. A user equipment (UE), comprising:

a transceiver; and

a controller configured to:

perform a first data transmission in a listen-before-talk (LBT) mode,

obtain hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) information corresponding to a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) on which the data transmission is performed,

adjust a contention window size (CWS) for performing a second data transmission in the LBT mode based on the HARQ-ACK information in case that the PUSCH is transmitted over all resources allocated for the PUSCH, and

maintain a previous CWS for performing the second data transmission in the LBT mode in case that the PUSCH is not transmitted over all resources allocated for the PUSCH.

5. The UE according to claim 4 ,

wherein the HARQ-ACK information is associated with a code block group transport indicator (CBGTI) in case that data transmission is performed per code block group (CBG).

6. The UE according to claim 5 ,

wherein the HARQ-ACK information is identified as an acknowledgement (ACK) in case that a bit of the CBGTI is configured with 0.
