Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are described herein for transmission priority, collisions, and sharing in the COT by frame based equipment (FBE). In accordance with one embodiment, a wireless communications device such as an FBE, may conduct two stage channel sensing to avoid collision between other FBEs nodes. The wireless communications device may adjust the energy threshold to reflect a channel access priority. The FBE may conducting continuous and non-continuous second stage channel sensing. The FBE may perform enhanced two stage channel sensing to exploit the remaining portion of the COT. The FBE may store a configuration for the second stage of channel sensing for both the downlink (DL) and uplink (UL).
