Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for channel access scheme enhancements for systems operating in unlicensed higher frequency bands. A wireless device may perform channel access detection (CAD) measurements on a channel at a first periodicity, determine a CAD metric based on the CAD measurements at a second periodicity, and select, for the channel, a first channel access scheme from a plurality of channel access schemes based on comparison of the CAD metric to a threshold. The first channel access scheme may include a first set of channel access procedures that may define physical channels and signals to utilize respective channel procedures. In instances when the CAD metric is below the threshold, the first channel access scheme may include accessing a channel using a first listen before talk (LBT) procedure that is less restrictive than a second LTB procedure used when the CAD metric is above the threshold.

Abstract: Methods and devices for a base station acting as a primary cell to perform dual spectrum sharing (DSS) with a first user equipment device (UE) over a 5G NR connection and a second UE over an LTE connection. The first UE establishes the 5G NR connection with the primary cell and one or more secondary cells. One of the secondary cells is configured in the 5G NR connection to provide downlink control information to the UE for the primary cell, to avoid collisions by the primary cell with LTE control transmissions.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for SRS antenna switching. A UE may transmit, to a base station, a capability message indicating an antenna configuration associated with SRS antenna switching e.g., via as RRC signaling. The capability message may indicate at least one of (and/or one or more of) a one transmit point (1T) and six receive point (6R) SRS resource set configuration, a 1T8R SRS resource set configuration, a 2T6R SRS resource set configuration, a 2T8R SRS resource set configuration, and/or a 4T8R SRS resource set configuration. The UE may receive, from the base station, a configuration message, e.g., via RRC signaling. The configuration message may indicate an SRS antenna switching configuration based, at least in part, on the capability message. The UE may transmit, to the base station, one or more SRSs, e.g., according to the SRS antenna switching configuration.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for providing control signaling for robust uplink data transmissions in a wireless communication system. A wireless device may be configured to perform an uplink transmission, including performing multiple repetitions of the uplink transmission. The wireless may select a beam for each repetition, and it may be the case that different repetitions are transmitted using different beams.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for a wireless device to initiate channel occupancy in unlicensed spectrum in a wireless communication system. The wireless device may establish a wireless link with a cellular base station. The wireless device may determine to perform an uplink transmission to the cellular base station on an unlicensed frequency channel. The wireless device may determine whether the cellular base station has channel occupancy of the unlicensed frequency channel. The wireless device may determine whether to initiate channel occupancy of the unlicensed frequency channel. The decision whether to initiate channel occupancy may be based at least in part on whether the cellular base station has channel occupancy of the unlicensed frequency channel.

Abstract: A base station that determines a slot for uplink reception for a non-terrestrial network link between a base station and a user equipment is described. In exemplary embodiments, the base station determines a timing advance based on at least a random access preamble reception and determines an uplink offset based on the timing advance. The base station may further determine a candidate slot for an uplink reception based on at least the offset. In addition, the base station may determine if the candidate slot is available for the uplink reception. The base station may use the candidate slot for the uplink reception when the candidate uplink slot is available and may use the next available slot for the uplink reception when the candidate uplink slot is not available.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE), or other network component can operate to configure different sets of resources including different sequence lengths for an uplink (UL) transmission via a UL channel. A first length or at least one of different second lengths can be selected to configure the UL transmission based on one or more conditions, which can include a coexisting radio access technology (RAT), a UE capability, an occupied channel bandwidth (OCB), the type of UL transmission or the like. The UL transmission can be based on at least one of: the first or the second sequence length such as for an initial access procedure based on the coexisting RAT and the OCB, for example.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for SRS collision handling. A wireless device may determine whether simultaneous transmission of at least two sounding reference signals (SRSs) is allowed; if it is determined that the simultaneous transmission of the at least two SRSs is allowed, transmit the at least two SRSs simultaneously; and if it is determined that the simultaneous transmission of the at least two SRSs is not allowed, transmit one SRS of the at least two SRSs, and drop the other SRS of the at least two SRSs.
