    Abstract: A method and apparatus provide for configuring WLAN measurements for unlicensed spectrum communications. The method and apparatus include receiving, at a network entity, a UE capability message and a reporting message from a UE, determining whether the UE is capable of communicating over the unlicensed spectrum and supports WLAN measurements based on the UE capability message and the reporting message, and transmitting, to the UE, a measurement configuration message including a measurement configuration identifier in accordance with the determination that the UE is capable of communicating over the unlicensed spectrum and supports WLAN measurements. The method and apparatus further include receiving, at a UE, a measurement configuration message and a measurement purpose message from a network entity, determining a measurement configuration of the UE based on the measurement purpose message, and performing one or more measurements for the one or more WLAN access points.
