How loud to talk and how hard to listen-before-talk in unlicensed LTE
Pengfei Xia, Zi Teng, Jun Hui Wu · 2015
Unlicensed LTE system holds high potential to effectively offload data traffic/video traffic from the crowded LTE networks. Listen-before-talk is generally necessary for unlicensed LTE to coexist with existing transmissions in the unlicensed band (e.g. wireless LAN). This paper studies the interaction of clear channel assessment (how hard one should listen before talk) and transmit power control (how loud one should talk) in unlicensed LTE systems.
