Method, apparatus, and system for channel access in unlicensed band
View Patent ↗Disclosed are a method, an apparatus, and a system for performing channel access. In detail, provided are a method including: receiving uplink scheduling information; and when the user equipment has stopped an uplink transmission during the uplink transmission being performed according to the uplink scheduling information, to resume the uplink transmission, performing a second type channel access when a channel sensed by the user equipment is continuously idle after the uplink transmission has been stopped, and performing a first type channel access when the channel sensed by the user equipment is not continuously idle after the uplink transmission has been stopped, wherein the first type channel access comprises performing a random backoff after a channel sensing, and the second type channel access only comprises performing a channel sensing and an apparatus and a system therefor.
1. A method for performing transmission in an unlicensed cell by a user equipment in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving uplink scheduling information;
when the user equipment has stopped, during an uplink transmission being performed according to the uplink scheduling information, the uplink transmission and a channel sensed by the user equipment is not continuously idle after the uplink transmission has been stopped, performing a first type channel access to resume the uplink transmission; and
when the user equipment has stopped, during the uplink transmission being performed according to the uplink scheduling information, the uplink transmission and the channel sensed by the user equipment is continuously idle after the uplink transmission has been stopped, performing a second type channel access to resume the uplink transmission,
wherein the first type channel access comprises performing a random backoff using a variable size contention window (CW) after a first channel sensing, and the second type channel access only comprises performing a second channel sensing for at least a sensing interval without the random backoff.
2. The method according to claim 1 ,
wherein the uplink transmission comprises a transmission on a plurality of subframes, and
wherein the user equipment stops the uplink transmission in a subframe other than a last subframe of the plurality of subframes.
3. The method according to claim 1 ,
wherein the uplink transmission comprises a transmission on a plurality of subframes,
wherein the user equipment stops the uplink transmission in a first subframe which is a subframe other than a last subframe of the plurality of subframes and resume the uplink transmission in a second subframe,
wherein the second subframe is later than the first subframe.
4. The method according to claim 1 ,
wherein the second type channel access comprises performing the second channel sensing for a duration of 25 us without the random backoff.
5. A user equipment used in a wireless communication system, the user equipment comprising:
a wireless communication module; and
a processor,
wherein the processor is configured to:
receive uplink scheduling information,
when the user equipment has stopped, during an uplink transmission being performed according to the uplink scheduling information in an unlicensed cell, the uplink transmission and a channel sensed by the user equipment is not continuously idle after the uplink transmission has been stopped, perform a first type channel access to resume the uplink transmission, and
when the user equipment has stopped, during the uplink transmission being performed according to the uplink scheduling information in the unlicensed cell, the uplink transmission and the channel sensed by the user equipment is continuously idle after the uplink transmission has been stopped, perform a second type channel access to resume the uplink transmission,
wherein the first type channel access comprises performing a random backoff using a variable size contention window (CW) after a first channel sensing, and the second type channel access only comprises performing a second channel sensing for at least a sensing interval without the random backoff.
6. The user equipment according to claim 5 ,
wherein the uplink transmission comprises a transmission on a plurality of subframes, and
wherein the user equipment stops the uplink transmission in a subframe other than a last subframe of the plurality of subframes.
7. The user equipment according to claim 5 ,
wherein the uplink transmission comprises a transmission on a plurality of subframes,
wherein the user equipment stops the uplink transmission in a first subframe which is a subframe other than a last subframe of the plurality of subframes and resume the uplink transmission in a second subframe,
wherein the second subframe is later than the first subframe.
8. The user equipment according to claim 5 ,
wherein the second type channel access comprises performing the second channel sensing for a duration of 25 us without the random backoff.
9. A wireless communication system comprising a user equipment,
wherein the user equipment is configured to:
receive uplink scheduling information,
when the user equipment has stopped, during an uplink transmission being performed according to the uplink scheduling information in an unlicensed, the uplink transmission and a channel sensed by the user equipment is not continuously idle after the uplink transmission has been stopped, perform a first type channel access to resume the uplink transmission, and
when the user equipment has stopped, during the uplink transmission being performed according to the uplink scheduling information in the unlicensed, the uplink transmission and the channel sensed by the user equipment is continuously idle after the uplink transmission has been stopped, perform a second type channel access to resume the uplink transmission,
wherein the first type channel access comprises performing a random backoff using a variable size contention window (CW) after a first channel sensing, and the second type channel access only comprises performing a second channel sensing for at least a sensing interval without the random backoff.
