Method and apparatus for performing blind detection in wireless communication system
A method performed by a wireless device in a wireless communication system, the method including detecting a first subframe, wherein the first subframe includes a first slot and a second slot, and wherein orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols in the first slot are not occupied, detecting a second subframe, wherein the second subframe a next subframe of the first subframe, and wherein all OFDM symbols in the second subframe are occupied and receiving a downlink signal from a network on an unlicensed carrier via at least one of the first subframe and the second subframe.
1. A method performed by a wireless device in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
detecting that a first subframe on an unlicensed carrier is a partial subframe in which a part of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)
symbols are unoccupied according to an indication in downlink control information (DCI) received from a network;
detecting that a second subframe next to the first subframe on the unlicensed carrier is a full subframe in which all OFDM symbols are occupied based on detecting that the first subframe is the partial subframes; and
performing a downlink reception from the network on the unlicensed carrier via at least one of the first subframe and the second subframe.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving the DCI from the network over the unlicensed carrier.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein a number of OFDM symbols in the first subframe is 7, and a number of OFDM symbols in the second subframe is 14.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first subframe is blindly detected based on a reference signal (RS).
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the RS is one of a cell-specific RS (CRS) or a UE-specific RS.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the wireless device is in communication with at least one of a user equipment, the network, and/or autonomous vehicles other than the wireless device.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the network over the unlicensed carrier, a cell-specific reference signal (CRS) in at least one of the first subframe or the second subframe.
8. A wireless device in a wireless communication system, the wireless device comprising:
a memory;
a transceiver; and
at least one processor, coupled to the memory and the transceiver, and configured to:
detect that a first subframe on an unlicensed carrier is a partial subframe in which a part of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)
symbols are unoccupied according to an indication in downlink control information (DCI) received from a network;
detect that a second subframe next to the first subframe on the unlicensed carrier is a full subframe in which all OFDM symbols are occupied based on detecting that the first subframe is the partial subframe; and
control the transceiver to perform a downlink reception from the network on the unlicensed carrier via at least one of the first subframe and the second subframe.
9. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the transceiver is further configured to receive the DCI from the network over the unlicensed carrier.
10. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein a number of OFDM symbols in the first subframe is 7, and a number of OFDM symbols in the second subframe is 14.
11. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the first subframe is blindly detected based on a reference signal (RS).
12. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the RS is one of a cell-specific RS (CRS) or a UE-specific RS.
13. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the transceiver to receive, from the network over the unlicensed carrier, a cell-specific reference signal (CRS) in at least one of the first subframe or the second subframe.
14. A processor for a wireless device in a wireless communication system, wherein the processor is configured to:
detect that a first subframe on an unlicensed carrier is a partial subframe in which a part of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)
symbols are unoccupied according to an indication in downlink control information (DCI) received from a network;
detect that a second subframe next to the first subframe on the unlicensed carrier is a full subframe in which all OFDM symbols are occupied based on detecting that the first subframe is the partial subframe; and
control the transceiver to perform a downlink reception from the network on the unlicensed carrier via at least one of the first subframe and the second subframe.
