Patent number: 11895678Abstract: The random access (RA) procedure in NR-U can be improved by enable the NR-U capable UE to choose a suitable BWP and uses this chosen BWP to perform the RA procedure. A suitable BWP is a BWP with a low probability for LBT failure, such as a BWP having a load that is less than a threshold load.

Patent number: 11785641Abstract: Wireless devices may perform modified carrier sense multiple access (CSMA) techniques in order to increase reliability while maintaining a reasonable latency for communications. The wireless devices may perform listen-before-talk (LBT) techniques using an adaptive transmission threshold (e.g., an adaptive CSMA threshold). The transmission threshold may be compared to a measured signal strength magnitude to determine whether the frequency channel is quiet enough for transmission of a packet. The transmission threshold may be initially set to equal a minimum value. The wireless device may increase the transmission threshold after each instance of LBT failure to allow the wireless device to get progressively more likely to transmit the packet each time LBT fails.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2021Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: Lutron Technology Company LLCInventors: Ankit Bhutani, Richard S.
