Data transmission method and device in unlicensed frequency band
The present invention relates to the technical field of mobile communications. Embodiments of the present invention provide a data transmission method and device in an unlicensed frequency band. The method comprises: determining a termination position of to-be-transmitted data in a radio frame in an unlicensed frequency band; determining position indication information according to the termination position; and sending the position indication information, so that a user equipment determines, according to the position indication information, the termination position of the to-be-transmitted data in the radio frame in the unlicensed frequency band. In the method provided by the embodiments of the present invention, a termination position of transmitted data in a radio frame in an unlicensed frequency band is indicated to a user equipment by using position indication information, so that the user equipment is enabled to determine, according to the position indication information, the termination position of the transmitted data in the radio frame, and therefore accurately receives the data according to the termination position and the receiving position of the transmitted data.

Wireless in-band backhaul communication
A communication cell may receive a request to establish a communication session for delivery to a core network of carrier network, the request originating from a user device connected to the communication cell. A lookup table stored in the communication cell is populated with an association of a session identifier assigned to the communication session and a caller identifier of the user device. The request is placed into an uplink buffer portion of the communication cell that is set aside for the user device. The request is encoded into one or more physical resource blocks reserved for the communication cell by a macrocell, the physical resource blocks being a part of a wireless in-band backhaul between the communication cell and the macrocell. The one or more physical resource blocks that include the request from the communication cell are then transmitted to the macrocell for delivery to the core network.
