SENSING BANDWIDTH ADJUSTED ENERGY DETECTION THRESHOLDS

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for wireless communication including an apparatus, e.g., a UE and/or a base station. In one aspect, the apparatus may determine an energy detection threshold of a reference bandwidth, the energy detection threshold being based on at least one of a transmit power or a power class. The apparatus may also measure an interference level of at least one signal. Additionally, the apparatus may adjust the energy detection threshold of the reference bandwidth based on a sensing bandwidth. The apparatus may also determine whether a transmission medium is available based on at least one of the adjusted energy detection threshold or the measured interference level of the at least one signal.
