Techniques for transmitting patterns of signal transmissions or reference signals over an unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band
First Claim
1. A method for wireless communication by a wireless communication device, comprising:
- monitoring a window of a plurality of frames during a time period of an unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band for transmission of a paging instance to the wireless communication device;
determining the paging instance failed to transmit during a first frame of the window of the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band due to unavailability of the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band; and
monitoring a second frame of the window in the time period of the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band for transmission of the paging instance based at least in part on the determining the paging instance failed to transmit.

Abstract
Techniques are described for wireless communication. A first method may include determining a pattern of signal transmissions for transmitting instances of a signal in a time period of an unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band; determining whether the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band is unavailable to transmit at least one instance of the signal; and changing, in response to determining the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band is unavailable to transmit an instance of the signal, the pattern of signal transmissions for the time period. A second method may include identifying at least one reference signal pattern from a plurality of reference signal patterns based at least in part on whether a plurality of transmission time intervals are bundled; and signaling the identified at least one reference signal pattern to a device.

12. An apparatus for wireless communication by a wireless communication device, comprising:
-
a processor; memory in electronic communication with the processor; and instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to; monitor a window of a plurality of frames during a time period of an unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band for transmission of a paging instance to the wireless communication device; determine the paging instance failed to transmit during a first frame of the window of the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band due to unavailability of the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band; and monitor a second frame of the window in the time period of the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band for transmission of the paging instance based at least in part on the determining the paging instance failed to transmit. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15)
