Abstract:
Methods of a network node may provide listen-before-talk (LBT) functionality in a telecommunications system. Such methods may include associating a user equipment (UE) within the network node's coverage to a group of UEs. In addition, a clear channel assessment (CCA) of an unlicensed channel may be provided for the group of UEs. Related network nodes and UEs are also discussed.
