Abstract
Described herein are techniques for efficient LTE operation in the unlicensed band. For example, the technique may involve initiating, at the wireless device, a signal measurement of an unlicensed communication band device. The technique may also involve sending, to an access point configured for operation in the unlicensed communication band, a measurement report including the signal measurement of the unlicensed communication band device.
