Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive configuration information indicating at least one of: a configuration for requesting repetition for an uplink shared channel transmitted after receiving a contention-free random access (CFRA) message, or a configuration for dropping one or more repetitions of the uplink shared channel. The UE may request the repetition for the uplink shared channel if the configuration information indicates the configuration for requesting repetition. The UE may transmit the uplink shared channel based at least in part on the configuration information. Numerous other aspects are described.

Methods and apparatuses for channel occupancy sharing with a sidelink in a wireless communication system. A method of a user equipment (UE) includes receiving, from a base station (BS), a set of configurations, determining a channel occupancy initiated by the BS based on the set of configurations, determining a set of resources for a first sidelink transmission within the channel occupancy based on the set of configurations, and determining a sidelink channel access procedure associated with the first sidelink transmission based on the set of configurations. The method further includes performing the sidelink channel access procedure and transmitting, to at least one other UE, the first sidelink transmission within the channel occupancy upon successfully performing the sidelink channel access procedure.

A method and apparatus reduce latency of Long Term Evolution (LTE) uplink transmissions. An indication can be sent to a user equipment. The indication can indicate a set of frequency domain resource blocks for possible physical uplink shared channel transmission in an uplink subframe. A physical uplink shared channel can be received in a selected subset of resource blocks in the uplink subframe. The subset of resource blocks can be selected from the set of frequency domain resource blocks for possible physical uplink shared channel transmission based on a selection criterion. The selection criterion can use at least a resource set size acquired from the indication, a modulo function, and an identifier associated with the user equipment.

In M2M communication, data transmission is performed 4 msec after control information for dynamic scheduling is received from a base station apparatus, and the data transmission that needs immediacy has more overhead. In a case where a transmission apparatus performs data transmission to a reception apparatus, there are a first transmission mode in which a data signal based on a transmission parameter included in the received control information is transmitted, and a second transmission mode in which the control signal information is not received, and the data signal is transmitted without the reception apparatus being notified of a transmission timing of the data signal. In a case where transmission of an SR is possible and in a case where data communication is possible with the first transmission mode and the second transmission mode, the transmission apparatus configures different transmission powers in accordance with the transmission modes.

A method in a network node for multiplexing a physical channel between the network node and devices in a mixed wireless network, wherein the mixed wireless network comprises a cellular network comprising one or more cellular channels and a Device-to-Device (D2D), network comprising one or more D2D channels. The method includes time division multiplexing the physical channel between a first group of cellular channels and a first group of D2D channels, and frequency division multiplexing the physical channel between a second group of cellular channels and the first group of D2D channels.

Disclosed are method for transmitting and receiving frame in wireless local area network and apparatus for the same. A communication method performed in a first station, the communication method comprises receiving, through a channel from an access point, a first frame notifying a first period for transmission or reception of a frame; and processing the first frame, wherein a second period exists between the first frame and the first period, and wherein the second period is a contention period during which stations are allowed to contend for the channel. Therefore, performance of WLAN can be enhanced.
