A control information utilization method and an apparatus of a terminal with heterogenous technology communication modules operating in a same frequency band are provided to protect against unnecessary battery power consumption. A control information reception method of a terminal includes receiving control information from a base station using a first module, determining a channel occupancy time based on the control information using a licensed assisted access (LAA) radio identifier, and transferring the channel occupancy time to a second module that is operating in a same frequency band as the first module.

Systems, methods, and devices are provided for controlling part of an electric power distribution system using an intelligent electronic device that may rely on communication from wireless electrical measurement devices. Wireless electrical measurement devices associated with different phases of power on an electric power distribution system may send wireless messages containing electrical measurements for respective phases to an intelligent electronic device. When wireless communication with one of the wireless electrical measurement devices becomes inconsistent or lost, the intelligent electronic device may synthesize the electrical measurements of the missing phase using electrical measurements of remaining phases. The intelligent electronic device may use the synthesized electrical measurements to control part of the electric power distribution system.
