Abstract: Described is an apparatus of a User Equipment (UE). The apparatus may comprise a first circuitry and a second circuitry. The first circuitry may be operable to encode a Non-scheduled Physical Uplink Control Channel (N-PUCCH) in an Uplink (UL) burst transmission, and to encode a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) in the UL burst transmission. The second circuitry may be operable to initiate the UL burst transmission subject to a Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) protocol on a channel of the wireless network. The UL burst transmission may be initiated without a UL grant received from the eNB.

Abstract: Techniques discussed herein can facilitate transmission and reception of group common PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel) for NR (New Radio). One example embodiment employable by a UE (User Equipment) comprises processing circuitry configured to: process higher layer signaling that configures a set of combinations for slot formats for the UE; detect, via blind decoding on at least a portion of a control resource set, a DCI (Downlink Control Information) message that indicates a combination for slot formats of the set of combinations for slot formats via a SFI (slot format indicator); and determine a slot format for one or more slots based on the indicated combination for slot formats, wherein the slot format indicates, for each symbol of the one or more slots, whether that symbol is DL (Downlink), UL (Uplink), or a flexible symbol in the slot format.

Abstract: Technology for a user equipment (UE) operable to process scheduled uplink (UL) transmissions is disclosed. The UE can process one or more uplink (UL) grants received from an eNodeB on a downlink (DL) subframe in a first transmission opportunity (TxOP). The UE can determine, based on the one or more UL grants, one or more UL subframes in at least one subsequent TxOP for an UL transmission from the UE. The UE can process the UL transmission for communication on the one or more UL subframes in the at least one subsequent TxOP.

Abstract: Techniques for communication of a partial subframe and properties related to the partial subframe of a plurality of subframes in licensed assisted access (LAA) for an unlicensed frequency band are discussed. A network device (e.g., an evolved NodeB, or other cell network device) can generate a listen before talk (LBT) protocol in order to determine whether an unlicensed carrier of a secondary cell device is idle or busy. The evolved Node B (eNB) can communicate starting or ending partial subframes in a downlink transmission, and a user equipment (UE) can process partial subframes based on the communications and a scheduling policy.

Abstract: Downlink control information techniques for wireless communications with shorter TTI (S-TTI) length are disclosed. An apparatus of a user equipment (UE) can include processing circuitry configured to decode signaling indicating a duration of a time window, the time window comprising a plurality of S-TTIs forming a single TTI. Absence of a discontinuous reception (DRX) indicator is detected within control information received within a first S-TTI of the plurality of S-TTIs. Upon detecting the absence of the DRX indicator within received control information, a S-PDCCH within each of the plurality of S-TTIs is monitored during the duration. Scheduling information received via the S-PDCCH within one of the plurality of S-TTIs is decoded, and data is encoded for transmission on a shared data channel based on the scheduling information.

Abstract: A base station may generate first configuration information to configure a first user equipment (“UE”) to operate using a first bandwidth within a wideband carrier of a cell, generate second configuration information to configure a second UE to operate using a second bandwidth within the wideband carrier of the cell, and cause transmission of the first and second configuration information to the first and second UEs, respectively. The base station may configure the first and second UEs based upon capabilities received from each UE, respectively.

Abstract: Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE), Generation Node-B (gNB) and methods of communication are disclosed herein. The UE may receive a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) that schedules a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) in a slot, and on a component carrier (CC) of a plurality of CCs. The PDCCH may include a total downlink assignment index (DAI) and a counter DAI for hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) feedback of the PDSCH. The total DAI may indicate a total number of pairs of CCs and slots for the HARQ-ACK feedback. The UE may encode the HARQ-ACK feedback to include a bit that indicates whether the PDSCH is successfully decoded. A size of the HARQ-ACK feedback may be based on the total DAI, and a position of the bit may be based on the counter DAI.

Abstract: Techniques for channel state information (CSI) reporting are discussed. One example apparatus at a user equipment can derive, for one or more subframes of a license assisted access (LAA) secondary cell (SCell), one or more channel measurements based on reference signals (e.g., cell-specific reference signals (CRS) or CSI reference signals (CSI-RS)), in those subframes; generate CSI that comprises a channel quality indicator (CQI) based on an average of the one or more channel measurements from multiple subframes comprising a first subframe and a later second subframe, wherein each orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol of a second slot of the first subframe is occupied, wherein each of a first three OFDM symbols of the second subframe are occupied, and wherein each OFDM symbol between the first subframe and the second subframe is occupied; and generate a CSI report that indicates the set of CSI parameters.
