INTERFACE FOR INTERFERENCE MITIGATION IN UNLICENSED FREQUENCY BANDS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- negotiating, based on messages exchanged over an interface between a first node and at least one second node, time intervals for downlink transmissions by the first node and the at least one second node over a channel of an unlicensed frequency band in response to the at least one second node transmitting over the channel of the unlicensed frequency band.

Abstract
Nodes in a wireless communication system can mitigate interference in unlicensed frequency bands by coordinating downlink transmissions. The nodes may negotiate, based on messages exchanged over an interface between a first node and at least one second node, time intervals for downlink transmissions by the first node and the at least one second node over a channel of an unlicensed frequency band in response to the at least one second node transmitting over the channel of the unlicensed frequency band.

19. A non-transitory computer readable medium embodying a set of executable instructions, the set of executable instructions to configure at least one processor to:
negotiate, based on messages exchanged over an interface between a first node and at least one second node, time intervals for downlink transmissions by the first node and the at least one second node over a channel of an unlicensed frequency band in response to the at least one second node transmitting over the channel of the unlicensed frequency band. - View Dependent Claims (20)
