Abstract
A first node that operates according to a first radio access technology (RAT) provides a first schedule to a second node that operates according to a second RAT. The first schedule requests a first portion of a subsequent time interval for transmission in an unlicensed frequency band. The first node receives one or more second schedules from a second node. The one or more second schedules request one or more second portions of the subsequent time interval for transmission in the unlicensed frequency band. The first node transmits signals in the unlicensed frequency bands during a third portion of the subsequent time interval that is determined based on the at least one second portion.
