Abstract: A method of wireless communication includes performing, by a user equipment (UE) device, a channel sensing operation during a first window of a frame period associated with a wireless communication network. Performing the channel sensing operation includes performing a direction-based scan of one or more beams associated with the wireless communication network, and the channel sensing operation is included in a joint sensing operation performed with a base station. The method further includes, based at least in part on a result of the channel sensing operation, determining whether to perform, during a second window of the frame period, one or more communication operations with the base station.

Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to listen-before-talk (LBT) are provided. A first wireless communication device performs an LBT in a channel to contend for a first transmission opportunity (TXOP). The first wireless communication device receives, from a second wireless communication device, a first reservation signal reserving a second TXOP in the channel in response to the LBT, the second TXOP being different from the first TXOP. The first wireless communication device adjusts a signal detection threshold based on transmit power information associated with at least one of the first wireless communication device, the second wireless communication device, first data traffic to be communicated in the first TXOP, or second data traffic to be communicated in the second TXOP. The first wireless communication device determines whether to yield channel access during the second TXOP based on a signal measurement of the first reservation signal and the adjusted signal detection threshold.

Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to communicating uplink control information (UCI) in a network operating over multiple aggregated unlicensed carriers are provided. A first wireless communication device communicates, with a second wireless communication device, a downlink communication signal. The first wireless communication device communicates, with the second wireless communication device, an unscheduled uplink communication signal including an uplink report associated with the downlink communication signal, the unscheduled uplink communication signal communicated based on a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure. The uplink report includes at least one of an acknowledgement (ACK) for data in the downlink communication signal, a negative-acknowledgement (NACK) for the data in the downlink communication signal, or channel information based at least on the downlink communication signal.

Abstract: Aspects relate to implementing multiplexing with a single carrier waveform. In some examples, a total bandwidth may be divided into a plurality of bandwidth parts (BWPs), each including a plurality of tones. Each of the BWPs may further be divided into two or more interlaces, where each interlace includes a respective number of interleaved tones. A base station may assign each of a plurality of UEs a respective set of one or more interlaces within at least one BWP for multiplexing communication with the base station.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for wireless communication of an apparatus, e.g., a UE and/or a base station. In one aspect, the apparatus may measure a plurality of beams from a base station or a UE, the plurality of beams corresponding to a plurality of subbands of a wideband channel. The apparatus may also determine whether the plurality of beams include one or more candidate beam groups for each subband of the plurality of subbands. Additionally, the apparatus may transmit, upon determining that the plurality of beams include one or more candidate beam groups for at least one subband of the plurality of subbands, an indication of the one or more candidate beam groups for the at least one subband of the plurality of subbands.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatuses for wireless communication that may allow a user equipment (UE) to determine its relative position and distances to other UEs more accurately than standard vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications allow. In some implementations, a UE (or other wireless communication device) participating in a positioning operation may transmit and receive positioning signals on an unlicensed radio band, and may transmit and receive non-positioning signals on a V2X channel (or on another suitable channel) of a radio access network (RAN). The positioning signals may include positioning reference signals (PRSs) associated with observed time difference of arrival (OTDOA) positioning operations, ranging signals associated with round-trip time (RTT) positioning operations, or other suitable signals from which the position of the UE can be determined.

Abstract: Aspects are provided that allow a base station to use visual information of interfering UEs for optimizing shared channel access and beam and interference management and tracking. The base station may obtain visual information of a UE. The base station may then access a shared channel to communicate with the UE based on the visual information. After accessing the shared channel, the base station may communicate with the UE over the shared channel using one or more beams based on the visual information. Efficient channel access and communication in mmW environments may thereby be achieved.

Abstract: A base station transmits a first downlink control information (DCI) portion in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), wherein the first DCI portion indicates a second DCI portion. The base station jointly encodes multiple component DCIs, each of the component DCIs providing a resource allocation in combination with the first DCI portion. The apparatus transmits the second DCI portion comprising the jointly encoded multiple component DCIs in a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH).
