Abstract: A user equipment (UE) performs uplink (UL) transmissions to a network. The UE receives a frequency domain resource allocation (FDRA) configuration from a network, the FDRA configuration comprising at least one of a first FDRA mode or a second FDRA mode, wherein the first FDRA mode utilizes an FDRA unit comprising a set of consecutive resource blocks (RBs) and the second FDRA mode utilizes an FDRA unit comprising a set of interlaced RBs, when both of the first and second FDRA modes are configured, the UE receives a signal indicating which one of the two FDRA modes are to be used for an uplink (UL) transmission and performs the UL transmission in accordance with the indicated FDRA mode.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) includes a set of one or more transceivers and a processor. The processor is configured to determine, at least partly from a transmission control indicator (TCI) state for multiple channels, that common physical downlink shared channels (PDSCHs) do not share a beam with dedicated PDSCHs. The processor is also configured to determine a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH)/PDSCH scheduling offset is below a threshold; select, at least partly based on the determination that common PDSCHs do not share a beam with dedicated PDSCHs and the determination the PDCCH/PDSCH scheduling offset is below the threshold, a beam for which to buffer PDSCH; and buffer PDSCH received on the beam.

Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing downlink transmission and interlace uplink transmission. For example, some aspects of this disclosure relate to a base station including a transceiver configured to communicate over a wireless network with a user equipment (UE) and a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver. The processor divides a plurality of candidate Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) positions in a time window into a plurality of groups and communicates, using the transceiver, information associated with the plurality of groups of candidate SSB positions to the UE. The processor further performs a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure. In response to the LBT procedure being successful, the processor determines a first group of the plurality of groups and transmits, using the transceiver, one or more SSBs on one or more candidate SSB positions of the first group to the UE.
