Abstract
A method and apparatus for adjusting a network configuration based on a channel occupancy and/or a channel busy ratio in a wireless communication system is provided. The wireless device performs a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) measurement and/or channel occupancy measurement for an unlicensed frequency. The wireless device may determine a frequency priority of the unlicensed frequency based on a result of the RSSI measurement and/or the channel occupancy measurement. Alternatively, the wireless device may adjust a value of a parameter for measurement reporting, cell selection and/or cell reselection based on the result of the RSSI measurement and/or the channel occupancy measurement.
Claims3
A method performed by a wireless device in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving a configuration for channel occupancy (CO) measurement and received signal strength indicator (RSSI) measurement for an unlicensed frequency;
- performing the CO measurement and the RSSI measurement for the unlicensed frequency;
- changing a value of a TimeToTrigger for measurement reporting based on a result of the RSSI measurement, wherein the value of the TimeToTrigger becomes smaller based on the result of the RSSI measurement being higher than a RSSI threshold, wherein the TimeToTrigger is a time during which specific criteria for an event needs to be met in order to trigger the measurement reporting;
- performing the measurement reporting based on the changed value of the TimeToTrigger;
- changing a value of a frequency offset for cell selection or cell reselection based on a result of the CO measurement, and determining a rank of a cell on the unlicensed frequency based on the changed value of the frequency offset, wherein the value of the frequency offset becomes bigger and the rank of the cell becomes lower, based on the result of the CO measurement on the cell being higher than a CO threshold;
- and
- performing the cell selection or the cell reselection based on the rank of the cell.
