  • Publication number: 20240196437
    Abstract: Sub-band (SB) indications and listen-before-talk (LBT) outcomes may be used to adjust communications between devices such as wireless terminals and base stations. For example, a wireless terminal may receive SB indications including SB configurations and/or LBT outcomes of a base station, and other information such as a remapped CORESET. Similarly, a terminal may determine that a physical resource block (PRB) is invalid based at least in part on whether the PRB overlaps with a guard band. The terminal may be arranged to adjust its searches and transmissions based on received SB indications, and to provide the base station with LBT outcomes of the terminal.

  • Patent number: 11997649
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a user equipment (UE) may estimate one or more channel availability parameter values. The UE may then select, based on a co-channel configuration indicating a relationship between channel availability parameter values and patterns of sidelink resources, a pattern of sidelink resources (e.g., LTE resources) on which to transmit NR packets. In some examples, a special UE may receive individual or aggregated reports of channel availability parameter values. The special UE may select a pattern of sidelink resources (e.g., LTE resources) on which one of the reporting UEs is permitted to transmit NR packets, and may transmit a message activating the pattern of sidelink resources to the reporting UE. The reporting UE may then use the activated sidelink LTE resources for transmitting NR packets according to the indicated pattern.
