CONFIGURED COMMUNICATIONS TECHNIQUES IN SHARED RADIO FREQUENCY SPECTRUM BASED ON CHANNEL OCCUPANCY TIME

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a user equipment (UE) may be provided with a set of configured resources that use shared radio frequency spectrum. A base station may perform a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure to verify that a channel is available for transmissions, and may determine a channel occupancy time (COT) during which associated resources are reserved by the base station. An indication of the resources associated with the COT may be provided by the base station to the UE. The UE may then validate the configured resources based on whether they are located within resources associated with the COT.
