1. A method comprising:
- transmitting, from a transmitting user equipment (UE) device, scheduling assignment information within a scheduling assignment region of a physical channel structure, the physical channel structure defined by at least one revision of a communication specification governing communication within at least a licensed frequency band, the scheduling assignment information identifying time-frequency communication resources of an unlicensed frequency band;
transmitting data, using the time-frequency communication resources of the unlicensed frequency band, from the transmitting UE device to a receiving UE device.

Abstract
A transmitting user equipment (UE) device transmits scheduling assignment information within a scheduling assignment region of a physical channel structure where the physical channel structure is defined by at least one revision of a communication specification governing communication within a licensed frequency band. The scheduling assignment information identifies time-frequency communication resources of an unlicensed frequency band. The transmitting UE device transmits data to a receiving UE device using the time-frequency communication resources of the unlicensed frequency band.
