Patent ID: 10485007

Abstract:
Embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of wireless communications, and in particular, to a method and a device for performing carrier scheduling, which are used to perform scheduling for an unlicensed carrier. In the embodiments of the present application, a terminal performs uplink channel measurement in an uplink subframe or an uplink measurement time period of an unlicensed carrier, to determine uplink channel quality information, and/or performs downlink channel measurement in a downlink subframe of the unlicensed carrier, to determine downlink channel quality information; and the terminal notifies a network side device of the determined uplink channel quality information, and the network side device determines, according to the received uplink channel quality information, whether to perform uplink scheduling on the terminal on the unlicensed carrier, and the terminal notifies the network side device of the determined downlink channel quality information, so that the network side device determines, according to the received downlink channel quality information, whether to perform downlink scheduling on the terminal on the unlicensed carrier. In this way, scheduling is implemented for the unlicensed carrier, thereby further improving system performance.
