Wireless communications systems and methods related monitoring the start of a transmission opportunity (TXOP) in unlicensed or shared frequency bands are provided. In one embodiment, a first wireless communication device communicates, with a second wireless communication device, a first configuration including a set of first control channel monitoring periods outside of a TXOP. The first wireless communication device communicates, with the second wireless communication device, a communication signal during the TXOP based on a second control channel monitoring period longer than each of the first control channel monitoring periods. In one embodiment, a first wireless communication device communicates, with a second wireless communication device, a configuration including a first search space for a control channel monitoring outside of a TXOP and a second search space for a control channel monitoring within the TXOP, the second search space being partially-overlapped with the first search space.
