Claim 12:
13. A base station (BS), the BS comprising:
a transceiver; and
a processor configured to control the transceiver to:
transmit, to a user equipment (UE) in a first period for a BS-initiated channel occupancy, downlink control information (DCI) for a scheduled uplink (UL) reception on a shared spectrum, and
perform the scheduled UL reception associated with a UE-initiated channel occupancy,

wherein i) the scheduled UL reception is entirely confined in the first period for the B S-initiated channel occupancy and ii) the scheduled UL reception is not time-aligned with a beginning of a second period for the UE-initiated channel occupancy
wherein:
the processor performs the scheduled UL reception based on that the UE has already initiated a channel occupancy in the second period, and
the processor drops the scheduled UL reception based on that the UE has not initiated the channel occupancy in the second period.
