Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for determining a Listen Before Talk (LBT) mode, as well as a method for LBT mode switching. The method includes: determining ( 100 ) an LBT mechanism and/or an LBT mechanism parameter set based on related indication information and/or priority information and/or measurement information; and performing ( 101 ), by a transmitting device, contention-based channel access based on the determined LBT mechanism and/or LBT mechanism parameter set. With the present disclosure, an LBT mode can be determined. With the selection of the LBT mode, it is possible to avoid waste of channel resources and indication information due to an improper LBT mode, thereby improving an efficiency of contention-based channel access.

Claim (Index 33):
The method of claim  2 , wherein, for a plurality of successive uplink subframes, said determining the LBT mechanism and/or LBT mechanism parameter set comprises:\n determining to use the same LBT mechanism or LBT mechanism parameter set or different LBT mechanisms or LBT mechanism parameter sets for the respective uplink subframes.
