Abstract
Wireless communication equipment () is configured for use in a wireless communication network (). As listen-before-talk, LBT, attempts occur over time on a transmission resource (--N), the wireless communication equipment () makes updates to a performance rating (--N) for the transmission resource (--N) to reflect an observed likelihood of LBT attempt success or failure on the transmission resource (--N). Responsive to a failed LBT attempt on the transmission resource (--N) occurring unexpectedly according to the performance rating (--N), the wireless communication equipment () applies a bias (-) to the performance rating (--N) to reflect a greater likelihood of LBT attempt failure, or a smaller likelihood of LBT attempt success, than actually observed on the transmission resource (--N), and relaxes the applied bias (-) over time. The wireless communication equipment () controls transmission on the transmission resource (--N) based on this performance rating (--N) for the transmission resource (--N).
