A method performed by a control network node for handling a radio resource in a frequency band. The control network node receives an indication related to a performance of a first radio network node or a performance of user equipment served by the first radio network node. The control network node further triggers a performance adjustment related to at least one radio network node of a number of radio network nodes or to the first the radio network node based on the indication.

A transmission acknowledgment method, a terminal device, and a transmission node are provided. The transmission acknowledgment method is performed by a first terminal. The method includes: monitoring a first physical control channel based on monitoring configuration information of the first physical control channel; obtaining first control information transmitted by a transmission node on the first physical control channel, where the first control information includes RTS information for a plurality of target terminal devices, and the plurality of target terminal devices include the first terminal; and sending CTS information on a second physical control channel based on the RTS information.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a user equipment (UE) may receive downlink control information (DCI) in a first fixed frame period (FFP) for frame based equipment (FBE) from a base station (BS), and perform a channel access procedure for a scheduled uplink (UL) transmission based on the DCI. In a first state in which it is indicated that the scheduled UL transmission is related to channel occupancy initiated by the BS, and the UE should perform channel sensing for the scheduled UL transmission, the UE may perform the channel access procedure for the scheduled UL transmission based on whether a resource for the scheduled UL transmission allocated by the DCI is confined within the first FFP in which the DCI is received.

A Shared Cell (SC) Controller uses deployment information, radio resource utilization measurements, cell load measurements, signal quality measurement, operator's policies and radio capabilities to make decisions on system configuration, re-configuration, and channel allocation related to the Shared Cell groups. The SC Controller may also use artificial intelligence/machine learning to predict future system state when making decisions on system configuration and channel allocation. The SC Controller can be implemented in the context of using a CBRS system, the ORAN architecture, and the Shared Cell group of Radio Units (RUs). SC Controller can be implemented as part of the Non-Real Time Radio Intelligent Controller (Non-RT RIC). The SC Controller interfaces with the Citizens Broadband Radio Service Device (CBSD) Controller, and the SC Controller sends the Shared Cell group information to the O-RU Controller so that the O-RU Controller can configure the radio components.

Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for listen-before-talk (LBT) mode for random access response (RAR) in a wireless communication system so that RAR indication of channel access type and cyclic prefix (CP) extension can be more efficient. A method of a User Equipment (UE) can comprise initiating a random access procedure, receiving a RAR, wherein the RAR comprises a channel access type indication, and determining whether to perform LBT for a Msg3 based on the channel access type indication in RAR.

The described technology is generally directed towards adaptive spectrum as a service, in which spectrum can be dynamically allocated to adapt to demand for wireless capacity. The demand for wireless capacity can be based on monitoring system state, and/or proactively predicted based on other system state such as time of day. Reallocated spectrum can be monitored for performance, to converge spectrum allocation to a more optimal state. Allocated spectrum can be relocated, increased or decreased, including by the use of citizens band radio service spectrum or other spectrum. Currently allocated spectrum can be adapted into modified allocated spectrum by an application program (xApp) coupled to a radio access network intelligent controller (RIC), a citizens broadband radio service device, a domain proxy service, and/or a user device.
