    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are disclosed from the perspective of a User Equipment (UE). In one method, the method includes the UE is configured by a network node to receive and/or monitor a signal within a channel occupancy time, wherein the signal indicates information of one or multiple TTIs (Transmission Time Interval) of a serving cell. The method further includes the UE derives state or functionality of one or more symbol(s) in the one or multiple TTIs based on the information, wherein the information indicates a symbol in the one or multiple TTIs to be any of “downlink”, “uplink”, “flexible”, or “blank”. The method also includes the UE derives or is indicated that at least one set of consecutive symbol(s) are indicated as “blank”. Furthermore, the method includes the UE prevents from or is not required to perform reception for (dynamically) indicated or configured physical DL (Downlink) channel or RS (Reference Signal) within the set of consecutive symbols indicated as “blank”. In addition, the method includes the UE prevents from or is not required to perform transmission for (dynamically) indicated or configured physical UL (Uplink) channel or RS within the set of consecutive symbols indicated as “blank”. Also, the method includes the UE being allowed to perform a channel access procedure or LBT (Listen Before Talk) scheme within the set of consecutive symbols indicated as “blank”.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a User Equipment (UE). In one embodiment, the method includes the UE being served and/or configured with a first cell and a second cell. The method also includes the UE transmitting a beam failure recovery request via a PRACH (Physical Random Access Channel) in the second cell in response to the UE detecting that all links associated with monitored control resource set(s) in the second cell have failed. Furthermore, the method includes the UE transmitting a first report via a PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel) in the second cell in response to the UE detecting that all links associated with monitored control resource set(s) in the first cell have failed.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a network. In one embodiment, the method includes the network configuring a DL (Downlink) BWP (Bandwidth Part) and an UL (Uplink) BWP in a first serving cell to a UE (User Equipment). The method also includes the network configuring a paired spectrum operation in the first serving cell to the UE. The method further includes the network transmitting a first DCI (Downlink Control Information) to the UE, wherein the first DCI comprises a slot format combination indicating one or more slot format values for the DL BWP and one or more slot format values for the UL BWP. In addition, the method includes the network prevents from setting an amount of slot format values in the slot format combination in the first DCI to be not divided by a first number, wherein the first number is associated with an absolute value of a difference of a first SCS (Subcarrier Spacing) configuration and a second SCS configuration.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for downlink data buffering considering cross carrier scheduling in a wireless communication system. The UE receives configuration of a first serving cell and a second serving cell from a network and receives and/or monitors a first PDCCH transmitted on the second serving cell, wherein the first PDCCH schedules a first PDSCH. The UE receives and/or monitors a second PDCCH transmitted on the second serving cell, receives and/or buffers the second PDSCH based on a first TCI state used for PDCCH quasi co-location indication of a CORESET, and receives and/or buffers the first PDSCH based on a second TCI state.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a UE (User Equipment). In one embodiment, the method includes the UE receiving a first MAC-CE (Medium Access Control-Control Element) including or indicating a plurality of TCI (Transmission Configuration Indication) state IDs (Identities) to be activated for receiving PDSCH (Physical Downlink Shared Channel), wherein format of the first MAC-CE depends on amount of the plurality of TCI state IDs. The method further includes the UE activating a plurality of TCI states associated with the plurality of TCI state IDs included or indicated in the first MAC-CE for receiving the PDSCH in response to reception of the first MAC-CE.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a User Equipment. In one embodiment, the method includes the UE detecting and/or receiving downlink transmission in a first channel occupancy time in unlicensed spectrum. The method also includes the UE detecting and/or receiving downlink transmission in a second channel occupancy time in unlicensed spectrum, wherein the second channel occupancy time is a next channel occupancy time detected by the UE after the first channel occupancy time. The method further includes that after the first channel occupancy time ends, the UE performs receiving beam sweeping in each time unit until the UE receives downlink transmission in the second channel occupancy time or until the UE finds a candidate beam in the second channel occupancy time.
