Abstract:
Methods and devices for transmitting a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a licensed-assisted access using Long Term Evolution (LAA-LTE) system are provided. One example method performed by a terminal includes: determining that a first unlicensed carrier is unavailable in a subframe n+k, and sending the PUSCH to a base station in the subframe n+k by using an alternate carrier or in one of a subframe n+k+1 to a subframe n+k+m by using the first unlicensed carrier. In such a way, a delay in sending uplink data by the terminal is reduced.

Claim (Index 42):
A terminal comprising:\n at least one processor; a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium coupled to the at least one processor and storing programming instructions for execution by the at least one processor; a transmitter; a receiver; and a system bus, wherein the memory, the transmitter and the receiver are coupled to the processor using the system bus, wherein the receiver is configured to receive an uplink grant message sent by a base station, wherein the programming instructions instruct the at least one processor to determine an alternate carrier when a first unlicensed carrier is unavailable in a subframe n+k, wherein the transmitter is configured to send a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) to the base station using the alternate carrier, and wherein n is a sequence number of a subframe in which the terminal receives the uplink grant message sent by the base station, wherein n is 0 or a positive integer, wherein n+k is a sequence number of a subframe in which the terminal determines, according to the uplink grant message, to send the PUSCH on the first unlicensed carrier, and wherein k is a positive integer.
