Patent ID: 11102803

Abstract:
The present disclosure is related to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution. A method for operating a base station includes transmitting, to a terminal, configuration information for measuring a channel blockage status indicating a degree by which an unlicensed band is occupied by an interference node, receiving information regarding the channel blockage status measured based on the configuration information, transmitting, to the terminal, scheduling information regarding uplink resources generated based on the information regarding the channel blockage status, and receiving data from the terminal based on the scheduling information, wherein the configuration information comprises at least one of information regarding a measurement duration for measuring the channel blockage status, information regarding uplink resources allocated to measure the channel blockage status, and information regarding a channel occupancy time of the base station.
