An apparatus used in a UE includes processing circuitry and memory. To configure the UE for operating in an unlicensed spectrum in a 5G NR system at a carrier frequency of above 52.6 GHz, the processing circuitry is configured to perform a CCA procedure to assess occupancy of a communication channel in the unlicensed spectrum. A reservation signal is encoded for transmission on the communication channel when the CCA procedure is successful. The reservation signal occupies a time interval between completion of the CCA procedure and a starting symbol of an uplink transmission opportunity. Data PUSCH is encoded for transmission to a base station during the transmission opportunity and following the transmission of the reservation signal.

User devices can form a spontaneous temporary local network for communications in 5G and 6G, without involvement of a base station. However, each member user device in the local network must have an identification code different from the other member user devices, so that they can communicate specifically with each other. Procedures are provided for each member user device to select an identification code different from the others, and for a newly arriving user device to select its own identification code different from the existing members, and for each member user device to respond to unexpected conflicts between the identification codes of member user devices. Each member user device can thereby transmit messages, such as an emergency collision-avoidance message, to a specific other member device when needed.

In the present invention, in classifying modulation types of a plurality of modulation signals by using a classifier (an artificial neural network model based on machine learning), the classifier may classify the modulation types of the modulation signals by using pieces of I/Q data, sampled with one sampling frequency, as input data, and thus, may quickly classify the modulation signals.

Examples described herein include systems and methods which include wireless devices and systems with examples of cross correlation including symbols indicative of radio frequency (RF) energy. An electronic device including a statistic calculator may be configured to calculate a statistic including the cross-correlation of the symbols. The electronic device may include a comparator configured to provide a signal indicative of a presence or absence of a wireless communication signal in the particular portion of the wireless spectrum based on a comparison of the statistic with a threshold. A decoder/precoder may be configured to receive the signal indicative of the presence or absence of the wireless communication signal and to decode the symbols responsive to a signal indicative of the presence of the wireless communication signal. Examples of systems and methods described herein may facilitate the processing of data for wireless communications in a power-efficient and time-efficient manner.

A wireless communication device, method and system. The device includes a memory, and a processing circuitry coupled to the memory. The processing circuitry is to: decode at least one signal field portion of a signal field of a Physical Layer Convergence Protocol (PLCP) Data Unit (PPDU) received over a bonded channel, the bonded channel comprising a plurality of subchannels including a punctured subchannel, the signal field portion on at least one unpunctured subchannel of the plurality of subchannels; determine, from the at least one signal field portion, information on a resource allocation for the device, the resource allocation indicating at least one resource unit (RU) used in a data field of the PPDU for the device; and decode a data field portion of the data field of the PPDU, the data field portion received on a part of the punctured subchannel based on the resource allocation.

A user equipment (UE) and a method of transmission of the same are provided. The method includes transmitting a first transmission, wherein the first transmission is used for synchronization and the first transmission occupies a bandwidth more than 11 resource blocks (RBs).

Methods and apparatuses are described for wireless communications. A first method includes transmitting a first Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) communications signal to a wireless node in a licensed spectrum, and transmitting, concurrently with the transmission of the first OFDMA communications signal, a second OFDMA communications signal to the wireless node in an unlicensed spectrum. A second method includes receiving a first Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) communications signal from a wireless node in a licensed spectrum, and receiving, concurrently with the reception of the first OFDMA communications signal, a second OFDMA communication signal from the wireless node in an unlicensed spectrum. A third method includes generating a periodic gating interval for a cellular downlink in an unlicensed spectrum, and synchronizing at least one boundary of the periodic gating interval with at least one boundary of a periodic frame structure associated with a primary component carrier of the cellular downlink.

Techniques described herein can facilitate Channel-State Information (CSI) measurement and feedback for communication in unlicensed spectrum or Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) transmission and/or channel-state estimation for communication in unlicensed spectrum. In an example, an apparatus is configured to be employed in a User Equipment (UE), and the apparatus comprises a Radio Frequency (RF) circuitry interface and processing circuitry configured to perform CSI measurement for communication in unlicensed spectrum. The apparatus further generates data for feedback according to the CSI measurement, and sends the data for feedback to RF circuitry via the RF circuitry interface. In an example, a frame structure of a data channel begins with a downlink (DL) transmission or soon after an initial signal. In an example, the CSI measurement includes measuring Channel Quality Information (CQI) for one or more sub-bands.

The disclosure provides a method and device in User Equipment (UE) and base station for wireless communication. The UE receives Q1 first-type information groups, and transmits or receives a first radio signal in a first time-frequency resource according to a configuration of a first information group; the first information group is one of the Q1 first-type information groups; a frequency domain position of the first time-frequency resource is used for determining the first information group from the Q1 first-type information groups; each of the Q1 first-type information groups includes at least one of relevant information to a subcarrier spacing. The disclosure establishes an association between the frequency domain position of the first time-frequency resource and the first information group, thereby simplifying the reception of the first-type information group, improving the flexibility of scheduling of frequency domain resources on unlicensed spectrum, and improving the overall performance of the system.

Techniques for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may initially configure a set of channel estimation parameters for a set of radio frequency spectrum subbands of a bandwidth part (BWP) of a transmission opportunity (TxOP). In some examples, the UE may identify an unavailable radio frequency spectrum subband within the BWP. Based on the identification, the UE may reconfigure the channel estimation parameters to avoid performing unnecessary channel estimation processes on the unavailable radio frequency spectrum subband. As part of reconfiguring the channel estimation parameters, the UE may set log-likelihood ratio (LLR) values of subcarriers associated with the unavailable radio frequency spectrum subband to a null value, thereby experiencing improvements in efficiency and reliability of channel estimation for the BWP.
