Abstract: A method performed by a wireless device (110) includes, for a first transmission of a procedure, selecting a first channel sensing procedure for determining availability of a channel in the unlicensed spectrum. Based on the first channel sensing procedure, it is determined that the channel in the unlicensed spectrum is available.

The wireless device transmits the first transmission during the MCOT duration and receives a second transmission from a network node (160). The second transmission includes a first listen-before-talk, LBT, scheme for a third transmission associated with the procedure.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a cellular communication network that can determine whether communications between one base station-UE pair may interfere with another UE that is in the same cell or a different cell. The network identifies interference parameters associated with interference signals that may be received by a UE. The interference signals may be generated by the base station itself, such as communications with other UEs, or by a neighboring base station. The base station transmits the interference parameters to the UE. The UE receives the one or more parameters comprising information about signals expected to cause intra-cell or inter-cell interference. The UE then processes received signals using the one or more parameters to suppress the intra-cell or inter-cell interference.
