A first method includes generating one or both of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) signals and physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) signals based on interleaved signals that increase nominal bandwidth occupancy in an unlicensed spectrum; and transmitting the generated signals in the unlicensed spectrum. A second method includes receiving, in an unlicensed spectrum, one or both of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) signals and physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) signals based on interleaved signals that increase nominal bandwidth occupancy in the unlicensed spectrum.
