Abstract
The present invention provides a control device for providing network-slice-aware licensed assisted access (LAA). The control device is configured to determine, for at least one slice-type, an unlicensed frequency band and/or an LAA configuration parameter. Furthermore, the control device is configured to provide, to at least one radio access node, configuration information comprising the determined frequency band and/or the LAA configuration parameter. The present invention also provides a radio access node for configuring network-slice-aware LAA. The radio access node is configured to receive, from a control device, configuration information comprising, for at least one slice-type, a frequency band and/or an LAA configuration parameter. The radio access node is further configured to request and receive, from a UE, a channel measurement report on one or more unlicensed frequency bands.
