Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017189044A1] Disclosed herein is an apparatus of a user equipment (UE) configured to communicate with an evolved Node B (eNB). The UE may include memory and processing circuitry coupled to the memory. The processing circuitry may be configured to perform a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure on one or more channels of an unlicensed spectrum of a secondary cell (SCell). The processing circuitry may be further configured to decode cell-specific control information in a current subframe received on a common physical downlink control channel (cPDCCH) of the SCell, the cell-specific control information indicating an uplink (UL) burst duration for a plurality of subsequent UL subframes forming an UL burst. In response to receipt of an UL grant associated with the UL burst, the processing circuitry may be configured to schedule a transmission of the plurality of UL subframes for the UL burst duration to an evolved Node B (eNB).
