Aspects are described for a user equipment (UE) comprising a transceiver configured to enable wireless communication with a serving cell and a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver. The processor is configured to determine a reference signal sequence that comprises a primary synchronization signal (PSS) sequence and a secondary synchronization signal (SSS) sequence of a target cell. The processor is further configured to receive a signal sequence from the target cell and calculate an overall correlation value based on the reference signal sequence and the received signal sequence. The processor is further configured to determine that the overall correlation value is above a threshold and detect a synchronization signal block (SSB) of the target cell based on the received signal sequence. Finally, the processor is configured to establish a wireless connection with the target cell based on the SSB.

A base station is disclosed, including an information size adjusting section configured to adjust a size of control information based on a first basic information size of control information mapped on a user equipment (UE) specific search space in a first component carrier. The base station also includes a transmitter configured to transmit the control information mapped on the UE specific search space. A first determination method for determining the first basic information size is different from a second determination method for determining a second basic information size of control information mapped on a common search space in the first component carrier. The first determination method for determining the first basic information size is different from a third determination method for determining a third basic information size of control information mapped on a search space in a second component carrier that is different from the first component carrier.

Implementations of the present disclosure provide an indication method, a detection method, and a related device. In the present disclosure, a network device indicates to user equipment, within what frequency domain ranges there is no SSB transmission, thereby preventing the user equipment from performing useless searches in the frequency domain ranges in which there is no SSB.

A method and a receiver device are disclosed for channel estimation of a broadcast channel. According to an embodiment, the receiver device determines a first channel estimation of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) from a transmitter device. The receiver device determines a second channel estimation of one or more synchronization related reference signals from the transmitter device. The receiver device determines a final channel estimation of a broadcast channel from the transmitter device based at least on the first and second channel estimations.

An apparatus and method for transmitting reference signal and a communication system. The method includes: transmitting first information on one or more beams formed by a plurality of antennas in beam sweeping duration, the first information at least comprising a synchronization channel, a first reference signal and a physical broadcast channel. Hence, a receiving device may demodulate the physical broadcast channel by using the first reference signal, thereby achieving design of beam reference signals in a beam sweeping system.

A method of transmitting, by a first user equipment (UE), a sidelink synchronization signal to a second UE in a wireless communication system ay include determining values of N.sub.ID.sup.(1) and N.sub.ID.sup.(2) corresponding to a sidelink identifier (SLID) value based on a number of types of a physical layer sidelink synchronization identity set and a number of sequences included in each type of the physical layer sidelink synchronization identity set; generating a sidelink primary synchronization signal (PSS) sequence and a sidelink secondary synchronization signal (SSS) sequence based on a first primitive polynomial, a second primitive polynomial, and a cyclic shift (CS) value; and mapping, on physical resources, and thereby transmitting the sidelink PSS sequence and the sidelink SSS sequence.

In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a UE. The UE receives a target SSB from a base station. The UE obtains received data carried in a broadcast channel of the target SSB. The UE reconstructs, based on received data carried in a broadcast channel of a previously received SSB, transmitted data placed in the broadcast channel of the target SSB at the base station. The UE preforms a channel estimation and/or synchronization based on a comparison of the received data and the transmitted data of the target SSB.

Provided are a method and an apparatus for performing physical resource block (PRB) indexing in a wireless communication system. A user equipment (UE) receives information on an offset between a synchronization signal (SS) block and a system bandwidth from a network through the SS block and performs the PRB indexing on the system bandwidth on the basis of the information on the offset.

According to the method and the apparatus, a first device generates a first synchronization sequence and/or a second synchronization sequence, where the first synchronization sequence is different from any sequence of a third synchronization sequence set, and/or the second synchronization sequence is different from any sequence of a fourth synchronization sequence set.

Disclosed in various embodiments are a method for transmitting/receiving a signal in a wireless communication system, and a device supporting same. More particularly, disclosed in various embodiments are a method for transmitting/receiving a synchronization signal block (SSB) in an unlicensed band, and a device supporting same.
