Abstract
A user equipment determines a set of licensed and unlicensed frequency bands that are available for wireless communication. The user equipment selects a first subset of the set as targets for a handover involving at least one unlicensed frequency band and transmits information indicating the first subset. A base station receives information indicating a first subset of a set of licensed and unlicensed frequency bands. The first subset are targets for a handover of user equipment involving at least one unlicensed frequency band. The base station selects a second subset based on the first subset and transmits information indicating the second subset.
