Abstract
Mechanisms for directional channel occupancy monitoring for a frequency band among multiple networks are provided. In one aspect, a method of wireless communication includes monitoring, in a shared frequency band in a plurality of beam directions, for signals associated with one or more wireless networks different from the first wireless network. The monitoring includes: detecting, in the shared frequency band and in at least a first beam direction of the plurality of beam directions, a first signal associated with a second wireless network; and up-dating a channel occupancy list to indicate that at least a portion of the shared frequency band is occupied in at least the first beam direction. The method also includes transmitting, in the shared frequency band, a second signal in a second beam direction of the plurality of beam directions based on the channel occupancy list.
