Abstract

Apparatuses and methods for transmitting or receiving a synchronization signals and physical broadcast channel (SS/PBCH) block in a wireless communication system. A method of operating a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a SS/PBCH block, decoding a content of a PBCH in the SS/PBCH block, and determining whether the wireless communication system operates with shared spectrum channel access based on the content of the PBCH. The method further includes determining the content of the PBCH in a first manner based on determining that the wireless communication system operates with shared spectrum channel access or determining the content of the PBCH in a second manner based on determining that the wireless communication system operates without shared spectrum channel access.
