Publication number: 20220271864Abstract: A method for transmitting system information on a PBCH is described herein. A transmission/reception point (TRP) may generate a concatenated master information block (MIB) transport block that includes information bits associated with system bandwidth information, timing information, system frame number (SFN), a beam sweeping configuration, and a control resource set (CORESET). The TRP may then attach at least 16 cyclic redundancy check (CRC) bits to the concatenated MIB and then prioritize the concatenated MIB and the at least 16 CRC bits based on content. The TRP may then perform channel coding of the prioritized concatenated MIB and the at least 16 CRC bits to produce coded bits using at least one polar encoder with a coding rate that is less than ?, perform rate matching via repetition on the coded bits, and then transmit the rate matched, coded bits on the PBCH of a radio frame.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2022Publication date: August 25, 2022Applicant: IDAC Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Kyle Jung-Lin Pan, Fengjun Xi, Robert Olesen, Chunxuan Ye, Janet Stern-Berkowitz

Patent number: 11395335Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may perform listen before talk (LBT) on a channel prior to uplink transmission on the channel. The WTRU may adjust an amount of time that the WTRU performs LBT. For example, WTRU may receive a set of transmission opportunities. The WTRU may receive a contention window size (CWS) sequence including a CWS for each transmission opportunity. The CWS sequence may be unique and may be based on the identity of the WTRU. For a given transmission opportunity, the WTRU may select a random number between zero and the CWS for that transmission opportunity. If the channel is clear for at least an amount of time associated with the random number, the WTRU may transmit in the transmission opportunity. If the channel is not clear for at least an amount of time associated with the random number, the WTRU may not transmit in the transmission opportunity.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2019Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: IDAC Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Hanqing Lou, Oghenekome Oteri, Xiaofei Wang, Ahmad Reza Hedayat, Alphan Sahin, Rui Yang, Kyle Jung-Lin Pan
