Abstract:
An access node, a communication device, methods performed thereby and a computer readable storage medium for carrier hopping are provided. A method of carrier hopping for an access node of a wireless communication network is provided. The access node operates on a first carrier in an unlicensed band. The method comprises: determining whether a hopping triggering condition is satisfied; and in response to determining that the hopping triggering condition is satisfied, activating a carrier hopping procedure to a second different carrier in the unlicensed band.
