Abstract
Disclosed are devices, systems and methods for channel access procedures that include a listen-before-talk (LBT) rule for preventing a mismatch between a sensing beam and a transmission beam. In some implementations, a data communication method includes detecting an idle channel by performing, by a communication node, an energy detection operation based on at least one of a transmission beam or a reception beam, and transmitting, upon detection of the idle channel in at least one of the transmission beam or the reception beam, messages through the transmission beam corresponding to the idle channel.
