Abstract

A method for resource configuration, applied to a base station, including: configuring a frame based equipment (FBE) parameter, where the FBE parameter includes: a frequency domain parameter indicating a frequency domain resource for performing clear channel assessment (CCA).

Claims (33)

1 . A method for resource configuration, applied to a base station, the method comprising:

configuring a frame based equipment (FBE) parameter, wherein the FBE parameter comprises a first FBE parameter and a second FBE parameter, the first FBE parameter comprises an uplink frequency domain parameter indicating an uplink frequency domain resource for UE performing CCA, the second FBE parameter comprises a downlink frequency domain parameter indicating a downlink frequency domain resource for the base station performing CCA, wherein the uplink frequency domain resource and the downlink frequency domain resource respectively include different frequency bands with different communication frequencies.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

sending the FBE parameter to a user equipment (UE).

3 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the sending the FBE parameter to the UE comprises one of:

sending radio resource control (RRC) signaling that carries the FBE parameter to the UE; and

broadcasting broadcast information carrying the FBE parameter to the UE.

4 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein the sending the RRC signaling carrying the FBE parameter to the UE comprises:

sending the RRC signaling carrying the FBE parameter associated with the UE to the UE.

5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the frequency domain resource comprises at least one of following resources:

at least one Listen Before Talk (LBT) band resource; or

at least one resource block (RB).

6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein in response to sending the FBE parameter to more than one UE, the frequency domain parameter comprised in the FBE parameter indicates different frequency domain resources for different UEs.

7 . A method for resource configuration, applied to a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:

receiving a frame based equipment (FBE) parameter, wherein the FBE parameter comprises a first FBE parameter and a second FBE parameter, the first FBE parameter comprises an uplink frequency domain parameter indicating an uplink frequency domain resource for UE performing CCA, the second FBE parameter comprises a downlink frequency domain parameter indicating a downlink frequency domain resource for the base station performing CCA, wherein the uplink frequency domain resource and the downlink frequency domain resource respectively include different frequency bands with different communication frequencies.

8 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein the method further comprises:

determining a frequency domain resource for performing CCA according to the frequency domain parameter.

9 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein the receiving the FBE parameter comprises one of:

receiving RRC signaling carrying the FBE parameter; and

receiving broadcast information carrying the FBE parameter.

10 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the receiving the RRC signaling carrying the FBE parameter comprises:

receiving the RRC signaling carrying the FBE parameter associated with the UE.

11 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein the frequency domain resource comprises at least one of following resources:

at least one Listen Before Talk (LBT) band resource; or

at least one resource block (RB).

12 . A communication device, comprising at least one processor, a memory, and an executable program stored on the memory and executable by the at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor executes the steps of the method for resource configuration according to claim 7 when running the executable program.

13 . A communication device, comprising at least one processor, a memory, and an executable program stored on the memory and executable by the at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor executes a method for resource configuration applied to a base station when running the executable program, and the method comprises:

configuring a frame based equipment (FBE) parameter, wherein the FBE parameter comprises a first FBE parameter and a second FBE parameter, the first FBE parameter comprises an uplink frequency domain parameter indicating an uplink frequency domain resource for UE performing CCA, the second FBE parameter comprises a downlink frequency domain parameter indicating a downlink frequency domain resource for the base station performing CCA, wherein the uplink frequency domain resource and the downlink frequency domain resource respectively include different frequency bands with different communication frequencies.

14 . The communication device according to claim 13 , wherein the method further comprises:

sending the FBE parameter to a UE.

15 . The communication device according to claim 13 , wherein the frequency domain resource comprises at least one of:

at least one Listen Before Talk (LBT) band resource; or

at least one resource block (RB).
