  • Patent number: 10820325
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). A base station apparatus according to various embodiments may comprise: a communication unit configured to transmit or receive information; and a control unit coupled to the communication unit, wherein the control unit may be configured to receive, from at least one other base station that shares a frequency band, first information associated with one or more of a second base station and a second terminal included in a second system that shares the frequency band, determine a transmission start alignment interval on the basis of the received first information, and transmit information on the transmission start alignment interval to the at least one other base station.

  • Patent number: 10716137
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE). According to various embodiments in the present disclosure, a method of operating a terminal in a wireless communication system comprises receiving information for indicating a pre-listen interval within an allocated channel occupancy time from a base station (BS), transmitting a reporting signal for indicating that occupancy of an unlicensed band by at least one node is not detected during the pre-listen interval, receiving resource allocation information for indicating uplink resources of the unlicensed band allocated based on the reporting signal, and transmitting uplink data through the uplink resources.

  • Patent number: 10470211
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates beyond 4th-generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE). An apparatus of a base station in a wireless communication system is provided. The apparatus includes at least one processor configured to determine a length of a channel occupancy period and a length of a contention period with respect to a band shared with other system, and a transceiver configured to, when detecting no signal of the other system until a time indicated by a back-off value in the contention period, transmit a signal over the band. A method of a base station in a wireless communication system is provided.

  • Patent number: 10212736
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE). According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, an apparatus according to aspects of a communication system that shares a channel with another communication system may include at least one processor and at least one transceiver. The at least one processor may be configured to determine a transmission timing of an initial signal based on a parameter for the initial signal that indicates that the apparatus occupies a channel and at least one detection interval for detecting a signal of the another communication system. The at least one transceiver is configured to transmit the initial signal according to the transmission timing.
