Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques for wideband operations in unlicensed spectrum are described. A described technique receiving, by a user equipment (UE), a schedule for transmitting on a Physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) over at least a portion of a plurality of listen-before-talk (LBT) subbands of a bandwidth part (BWP) in an unlicensed spectrum. The scheduled PUSCH bandwidth indicated by the schedule can be greater than a unit bandwidth of a LBT subband. The technique includes performing, by the UE, a LBT procedure on each scheduled LBT subband of the plurality of LBT subbands, each of the scheduled LBT subbands being associated with the scheduled PUSCH bandwidth. The technique includes performing, by the UE, a PUSCH transmission in accordance with the schedule that uses one or more of the scheduled LBT subbands that have passed the LBT procedure.

Abstract: A network device (e.g., a user equipment (UE), a new radio NB (gNB), or other network component) can process or generate a dynamic indication that indicates a transmission bandwidth based on a wideband bandwidth. One or more downlink (DL) signals can be provided with the indication of the transmission bandwidth that enables a tuning of communications within the wideband bandwidth based on the indication for new radio (NR) communications in heterogeneous network domains ranging from Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) to massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC) and Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC) or the like.

Abstract: Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE), Next Generation Node-B (gNB) and methods of communication are generally described herein. A channel state information (CSI) report may include a CSI part 1 transmission and may be configurable to include a CSI part 2 transmission. The UE may determine a first number of coded modulation symbols per layer to be used for the CSI part 1 transmission on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) without uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) data. The first number of coded modulation symbols per layer may be determined as: a minimum of a first term and a second term if the CSI report includes the CSI part 2 transmission; and the second term if the CSI report does not include the CSI part 2 transmission.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE), or other network component can operate to configure channel occupancy time (COT) sharing in random access procedures involving the unlicensed spectrum. At least some of the messages for the procedures can share a COT by configuring one or more gaps or listen-before-talk (LBT) procedures based on the gap or whether the COT sharing is UE or gNB initiated. Some configurations can depend on a location in the random access procedure that COT sharing is acquired.

Abstract: Embodiments for determining that a first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource and a second PUCCH resource at least partially overlap are provided. The first PUCCH resource has a payload of a first size carrying a first uplink control information (UCI) in a first format, and the second PUCCH resource has a payload of a second size carrying a second UCI in a second format. Furthermore, the first UCI and the second UCI are multiplexed to form a combined payload to be carried by the first PUCCH resource in the first format or by the second PUCCH resource in the second format. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) can include processing circuitry coupled to memory. To configure the UE for New Radio (NR) communications above a 52.6 GHz carrier frequency, the processing circuitry is to decode radio resource control (RRC) signaling to obtain a cyclic shift value in time domain. The cyclic shift value is associated with a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) antenna port (AP) of a plurality of available DM-RS APs. A single carrier based waveform DM-RS sequence corresponding to the DM-RS AP is generated using a base sequence and the cyclic shift value. The single carrier based waveform DM-RS sequence is encoded with uplink data for transmission to a base station using a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) using a carrier above the 52.6 GHz carrier frequency.
