    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) configured for multi-slot physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring may decode higher-layer signalling comprising configuration information received from a gNodeB (gNB) that configure the UE with search space (SS) sets for multi-slot PDCCH monitoring. At least some slots of the SS sets may be indicated to have a PDCCH monitoring occasion (MO). A SS set may be configured in a number (Y) of consecutive non-overlapping slots (MO slots) within slot groups of a number (X) of consecutive non-overlapping slots. The number (X) of consecutive slots of the slot group may be at least twice the number (Y) of consecutive MO slots within each SS set. The number (X) of consecutive slots of the slot group and the number (Y) of consecutive MO slots within each SS set that comprise the PDCCH MO may also be based on a subcarrier spacing (SCS).

    Abstract: An apparatus used in a UE includes processing circuitry and memory. To configure the UE for operating in an unlicensed spectrum in a 5G NR system at a carrier frequency of above 52.6 GHz, the processing circuitry is configured to perform a CCA procedure to assess occupancy of a communication channel in the unlicensed spectrum. A reservation signal is encoded for transmission on the communication channel when the CCA procedure is successful. The reservation signal occupies a time interval between completion of the CCA procedure and a starting symbol of an uplink transmission opportunity. Data PUSCH is encoded for transmission to a base station during the transmission opportunity and following the transmission of the reservation signal.
