TECHNIQUES FOR RANDOM ACCESS CHANNEL (RACH) SUPPORT FOR NEW RADIO UNLICENSED (NR-U) COMMUNICATIONS

摘要

This disclosure relates to random access channel (RACH) enhancements for new radio unlicensed (NR-U) communications. Specifically, the present aspects include determining whether a gap length between a two-step random access channel (RACH) preamble transmission and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission satisfies a gap condition. The present aspects further include selecting a transmission procedure associated with the determined gap length for the PUSCH transmission. The present aspects further include performing the PUSCH transmission in accordance with the selected transmission procedure.
