The subject matter described herein relates to measurement enhancement in wireless communication. A device informs other devices about the time period during which a channel will be occupied by its transmission, if the device determines to transmit on the channel. A set of occupation time periods can be defined, and then the device can indicate one of the defined occupation time periods to other devices. Upon detection of the indication of the occupation time period, other devices get to know that the channel will be unavailable in at least the indicated time duration, and thus can avoid unnecessary channel sensing or measurement in this time duration to save power. 本文描述的主题涉及无线通信中的测量增强。如果设备确定在信道上进行传送，则设备向其他设备通知所述信道将被其传送占用的时间段。占用时间段组可被定义，然后设备可将经定义的占用时间段中的个指示给其他设备。旦检测到占用时间段的指示，其他设备就知道该信道将至少在所指示的持续时间内不可用，并因此可避免在此持续时间内进行不必要的信道感测或测量以省电。
