First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for transmitting on a Licensed-Assisted Access in Long Term Evolution (LAA-LTE) channel, comprising:
- determining a starting time for transmission on an LAA-LTE channel;
determining a length of a hybrid preamble based on the starting time and based on a predetermined transmission time boundary;
transmitting, subsequent to determining the length of the hybrid preamble, the hybrid preamble having the determined length; and
transmitting, subsequent to transmission of the hybrid preamble, a Long Term Evolution (LTE) signal.

Abstract
A channel sharing method includes determining a starting time for transmission on an LAA-LTE channel. A length of a hybrid preamble is determined based on the starting time and a predetermined transmission time boundary. Subsequent to determining the length of the hybrid preamble, the hybrid preamble having the determined length is transmitted. Subsequent to the hybrid preamble, a Long Term Evolution (LTE) signal is transmitted.
