    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which wireless nodes may use licensed shared radio frequency spectrum band for communications and one or more neighboring networks may use a same licensed shared radio frequency spectrum band. A second network of the one or more neighboring networks may have priority of use of the licensed shared radio frequency spectrum band within a particular geographic area. Disclosed techniques provide that nodes of each network may indicate an identification of the network, a network priority, or both, in over-the-air signaling. Wireless nodes may determine if another neighboring network is present based on the over-the-air signaling, may determine whether the other network has a higher priority, and may adjust one or more transmissions in the event that a higher priority network is identified, such as through reducing transmission power.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may identify a bandwidth part (BWP) to switch to after identifying consistent uplink listen-before-talk (LBT) failures on a first BWP based on parameters indicated by a base station. For example, the base station may transmit a switching parameter to the UE that the UE then uses to switch to a second BWP based on identifying the consistent uplink LBT failures on the first BWP. Subsequently, after selecting the second BWP, the UE may attempt to use the second BWP for uplink transmissions (e.g., after performing a random access procedure). Additionally, the UE may indicate the consistent uplink LBT failures to a base station associated with the failed BWP based on a type of cell that is using that failed BWP.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a base station may transmit, and a user equipment (UE) may receive, a bitmap that includes a bit sequence to indicate a synchronization signal block (SSB) transmission pattern. The UE may perform rate matching around one or more candidate SSB positions in an initial portion of a window in which SSB transmission is expected, based at least in part on the bitmap, a first parameter indicating a quantity of initial candidate SSB positions in the window subject to rate matching, and a second parameter indicating a quantity of initial bits in the bit sequence that define the SSB transmission pattern. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: A discovery measurement timing configuration (DMTC) window reservation signal is disclosed for new radio (NR) shared spectrum (NR-SS) networks. The DMTC window is defined providing a reserved location for transmission of essential control signaling and potentially high priority traffic that may be transmitted in a prioritized manner. Access within the DMTC window may be provided with a clear channel assessment (CCA) exempt transmission (CET) option or a non-CET option. When the CET option is used, the reservation duration and period may be conveyed through the channel reservation signal. User equipments (UEs) that detect the reservation signal may re-transmit with added offset to inform neighboring base station that may not be within range of the serving base station. Base station that receive either the transmitted or re-transmitted reservation signal will refrain from communications that may interfere with the reception at the UEs.
