TRIGGER-BASED JOINT TX-RX SENSING FOR CHANNEL ACCESS

Abstract:

A user equipment (UE) and base station may be configured to implementing trigger-based joint TX-RX sensing for channel access. In some aspects, the UE may monitor, via a receiver, for one or more transmissions from a first base station, detect, during the monitoring, interference associated with a pre-grant communication, the pre-grant communication associated with a future communication between a second base station a second user equipment, and transmit, via a transmitter, a reservation communication to the second base station in response to the pre-grant communication. In some aspects, the UE may receive the one or more communications from the first base station, without interference from the second base station, based on transmitting the reservation communication.
