  • Publication number: 20230379966
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE may comprise higher layer processing circuitry configured to acquire first in radio resource control (RRC) information and second RRC information. The first RRC information configuring a semi-static channel access procedure. The second RRC information configuring a Channel State Information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS). The UE may also comprise receiving circuitry configured to receive the CSI-RS. If neither third RRC information for configuring a channel occupancy duration field nor fourth RRC information for configuring slot format indicator field is provided, a channel occupancy time for the semi-static channel access procedure is assumed to be a remaining channel occupancy duration indicated by the channel occupancy duration field.

  • Patent number: 11825521
    Abstract: A terminal apparatus includes: a receiver configured to receive an SS/PBCH block in an SS/PBCH block candidate; and a transmitter configured to transmit one random access preamble selected in a PRACH occasion. The terminal apparatus determines the PRACH occasion, based on a relationship between qSSB and the PRACH occasion. The qSSB is given by one of a remainder obtained by dividing tSSB by QSSB or a remainder obtained by dividing dSSB by QSSB. The tSSB is a timing index of the SS/PBCH block candidate. The dSSB indicates an index of a DMRS for a PBCH in the SS/PBCH block. The QSSB indicates a number included in an MIB in the PBCH.

  • Publication number: 20230371074
    Abstract: Terminal device initiates a COT-u at the beginning of an FFP-u after the channel is sensed to be idle and transmit an uplink transmission burst within the COT-u. In a case that the COT-u overlaps with a sensing slot for initiating an FFP-g with the one or more SS/PBCH blocks, the COT-u is terminated before the sensing slot. In a case that the COT-u does not overlap with the sensing slot, the COT-u is terminated after the sensing slot.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE may comprise receiving circuitry configured to receive a downlink control information (DCI) format including an information field. The information field may indicate a combination of a channel access type, a cyclic prefix (CP) extension index and a channel access priority class (CAPC). The UE may also comprise transmitting circuitry configured to transmit a sounding reference signal (SRS) and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). The SRS and the PUSCH may be based on the DCI format. There may be a gap between the SRS and the PUSCH. The gap may be longer than 16 microseconds. If the SRS is transmitted earlier than the PUSCH, the channel access type and the CP extension index corresponding to the indicated combination may apply to the SRS, a predetermined channel access type and a predetermined CP extension length may apply to the PUSCH, a predetermined CAPC may apply to the SRS, and the CAPC corresponding to the indicated combination may apply to the PUSCH.
