Licensed supplemental uplink as fallback with unlicensed uplink and downlink

Abstract:

Wireless communications systems and methods related to communications in a network that supports data transmitted in an unlicensed frequency band and a licensed frequency band are provided. A first wireless communication device communicates, with a second wireless communication device, a configuration indicating a first resource in an unlicensed frequency band and a second resource in a licensed band. The first wireless communication device communicates, with the second wireless communication device in the unlicensed frequency band, a first communication signal based on the configuration. The first wireless communication device communicates with the second wireless communication device in the licensed frequency band, a second communication signal based on at least one of a channel status of the unlicensed frequency band or a transmission parameter associated with at least one of the first communication signal or the second communication signal.
