Aspects presented herein relate to methods and devices for wireless communication including an apparatus, e.g., a UE. In some aspects, the apparatus may determine a timing synchronization procedure with at least one sidelink UE. The apparatus may also configure a timing synchronization signal associated with the timing synchronization procedure, the timing synchronization signal including at least one of a signal bandwidth or a signal location. The apparatus may also transmit, to the at least one sidelink UE, the timing synchronization signal associated with the timing synchronization procedure.

A resynchronization signal (RSS) may extend across multiple physical resource blocks (PRBs) or subframes, which may cause the RRS to be scheduled to overlap with other downlink transmissions. Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for management of RSS and one or more other transmission types that may have overlapping wireless resources with the RSS. If one or more other downlink transmissions are scheduled for resources that overlap with resources scheduled for an RSS transmission, the UE may receive the RSS transmission or the one or more other downlink transmissions, or a combination thereof, based on a prioritization of the transmission types of the one or more other downlink transmissions relative to RSS. The RSS transmission or the one or more other transmissions may be delayed, dropped, punctured, or rate-matched when the RSS transmission and the one or more other downlink transmissions conflict.

Disclosed are a method, an apparatus, and a system for transmitting a signal using multiple carriers. In detail, provided are a wireless communication apparatus including a communication module; and a processor, wherein the processor obtains a common back-off counter for a carrier set on which data is to be transmitted, wherein the carrier set includes at least one component carrier, performs back-off of each of the component carriers using the obtained common back-off counter, and simultaneously transmits data through at least one component carrier in which the back-off is completed and a wireless communication method using the same.

The disclosure provides a network access method and a user equipment (UE) using the same method in an environment of a 5G communication system. In an exemplary embodiment in accordance with the disclosure, the disclosure is directed to a network access method for a UE. The method would include not limited to: receiving a Synchronization Signal/physical broadcast channel Block (SSB) which comprises at least one of a physical broadcast channel (PBCH), a primary synchronization signal (PSS), a secondary synchronization signal (SSS) or mapping information; and determining from the SSB at least one of a SSB candidate number, a SSB index or a SSB pattern.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A base station may identify a first synchronization sequence and generate a second synchronization sequence based at least in part on the first synchronization sequence. The base station may map the first synchronization sequence to a first resource block of a synchronization channel associated with a first frequency sub-band of a shared radio frequency spectrum band and the second synchronization sequence to a second resource block associated with a second frequency sub-band of the synchronization channel. The base station may then transmit the first synchronization sequence and the second synchronization sequence concurrently over the synchronization channel using the first resource block and the second resource block according to the mapping. In some cases, the second synchronization may be generated by applying a first phase shift to the first synchronization sequence.

Example data transmission methods and apparatus are described. One example method includes obtaining at least two signature sequences used to perform multiple access for at least two to-be-sent data packets by a user equipment. The user equipment processes the at least two data packets by respectively using corresponding signature sequences, to obtain at least two transmit sequences. The user equipment sends the at least two transmit sequences to a network device on a same time-frequency resource. Then the network device obtains the at least two signature sequences used by the user equipment to send the at least two transmit sequences, and separately detects a corresponding transmit sequence based on each signature sequence, to obtain the at least two data packets. The user equipment can transmit a plurality of data packets on a same time-frequency resource in a same slot.

A method and apparatus for implementing reference signal transmissions in a wireless communication system. In one embodiment, the method includes the cell, transmission point (TP), or transmission and reception point (TRP) broadcasting a first RS periodically for measurement, wherein the first RS is transmitted at multiple occasions (or timings) in each period on different beams. The method also includes the cell, TP, or TRP transmitting a second RS to a UE for PDCCH demodulation, wherein the second RS is transmitted on multiple beams in a beam set of the UE in a subframe (or symbol) in which the PDCCH is transmitted.

An information receiving method, an information sending method, and a device are provided. Under these methods, a timing adjustment amount can be determined by a first access network device. The timing adjustment amount is an adjustment amount between a first timing at which the first access network device sends a first downlink signal to a first terminal device on a first frequency band and a second timing at which the first access network device sends a second downlink signal to the first terminal device on a second frequency band. The first frequency band and the second frequency band are paired frequency bands. First indication information can be sent, by the first access network device, to the first terminal device. The first indication information indicates the timing adjustment amount.
