Abstract
A communication device includes a control unit. The control unit receives an instruction to perform channel sensing in an unlicensed band, from a base station apparatus. The control unit performs the channel sensing in a channel occupancy time in which the instruction is received. The control unit transmits second uplink control information that can be multiplexed with first uplink control information and that indicates a result of the channel sensing, to the base station apparatus, in the channel occupancy time.
