Abstract
Systems and methods of performing a listen-before-talk (LBT) radio protocol in a communication system are provided. In one exemplary embodiment, a method (600) by a radio component (403, 503) of a wireless device (400, 500) may include receiving (601), by the radio component, from a baseband component (401, 501) of the wireless device, transmit data during a transmit-time interval associated with a synchronous wireless communication system. Further, the method may include, detecting (603), by the radio component, that a medium associated with an asynchronous communication system is available. Also, in response to detecting, the method may include, transmitting (605), by the radio component, the transmit data on the medium during the transmit-time interval.
