Abstract: User equipment (UE) in beam-centric telecommunications cell may use a variety of listen-before-talk (LBT) procedures and hybrid channel access procedures for uplink transmissions are on different beams and configured or scheduled in contiguous or non-contiguous mode. UE behavior may be based on the LBT result across the different beams. A gNB may indicate LBT occasions to UEs. The UL numerology may be adjusted without LBT while near the end of a gNB's maximum channel occupancy time (MCOT). A gNB may use LBT procedures, before down link transmissions, using data, control, and reference signals, etc., across different beams.

Abstract: A first apparatus including: a processor; a memory; and communication circuitry. The first apparatus is connected to a communications network via the communication circuitry. The first apparatus further includes computer-executable instructions stored in the memory which, when executed by the processor, causes the first apparatus to: discover a second apparatus that the first apparatus can communicate with; obtain device information related to the second apparatus; and configure a radio protocol of the first apparatus for direct sidelink communication with the second apparatus.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described herein for Intra-UE Prioritization in uplink (UL) transmissions. In an example, an apparatus may receive first information indicating a first uplink grant associated with a first transmission and second information indicating a second uplink grant associated with a second transmission. The apparatus may determine, based on the first information and the second information, that the first transmission and the second transmission overlap at least partially in time. The apparatus may determine a first priority associated with the first transmission and a second priority associated with the second transmission. The apparatus may then cause, based at least in part on the first priority and the second priority, at least one of: prioritization of one transmission over another transmission, or preemption of the first transmission by the second transmission.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and devices that are associated with downlink (DL) control, grant free (GF) transmission, or initial access. Particularly, disclosed herein are multi beam physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmission mechanisms, grant free transmissions mechanisms, demodulation reference signal (DMRS) for physical broadcast channel (PBCH) mechanisms, and DMRS sequence design for new radio-channel state information-reference signal (NR-CSI-RS) and new radio-physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) (NR-PDSCH), among other things.

Abstract: The present application may describe a method for obtaining channel access in a network. The method includes selecting, via a gNodeB, a spatial filter to perform listen before talk (LBT). The method includes detecting, via the gNodeB, a channel in an idle state. The method includes obtaining a directional channel occupancy time (COT). The method also includes transmitting a channel access indicator transmission (CAI-T) on a beam. The method further includes receiving a channel access indicator response (CAI-R). The method further includes sensing the channel is clear (e.g., via short channel sensing and the spatial filter). The method includes sending, via the channel, information to the node using one or more spatial filters of the second set of spatial filters. Other embodiments may include corresponding computer systems, apparatus, and computer programs recorded on one or more computer storage devices, each configured to perform the actions of the methods.

Abstract: An apparatus including a non-transitory memory including instructions stored thereon for monitoring synchronous signals and physical broadcast channels (SSBs) from a network node. The apparatus also includes a processor, operably coupled to the non-transitory memory, configured to execute a set of instructions. The instructions include configuring the apparatus for a STTC (SSB Transmission Timing Configuration). The STTC is a time interval with plural locations accommodating transmission of the SSBs. The instructions also include monitoring the STTC for the SSBs. The instructions further include determining a first one of the SSBs in a first slot of a subframe in a scheduled SSB transmission in the STTC has been transmitted at a first scheduled location, where the transmission of the first one of the SSBs is based upon confirmation of a successful Listen Before Talk (LBT) available channel prior to the scheduled SSB transmission in the STTC.

Abstract: Different sidelink resource configurations and allocation schemes may be controlled by an interface, such as the Uu interface. The radio resource control configurations may include dynamic assignment of broadcast sidelink transmission, unicast sidelink transmission, or group sidelink transmission. There may be radio resource control configured static resource allocation for broadcast sidelink transmission, unicast sidelink transmission, or group sidelink transmission.
