Patent ID: 11930532
Assignee: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. An electronic device, comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory operatively connected with the at least one processor, the at least one memory storing instructions, which when executed, instruct the at least one processor to:
receive, on a control channel, a control channel message;
receive a set of reference signals (RSs) in which each RS corresponds to a beam direction corresponding to a transmission state indicator (TCI) state;
decode the control channel message to obtain a list of beam specific channel occupancy time (COT) information for one or more slots, wherein each beam specific COT information comprises COT duration indicator for each of the slots;
determine, based on the beam specific COT information list, whether each RS of the set is valid; and
receive, in the beam specific COT information, scheduling information related to RS transmissions corresponding to each beam corresponding to the TCI state,

wherein validity of one or more RSs of the set of RSs is based on whether a duration of the set of RSs exceeds one or more corresponding slot durations provided by the COT duration indicator.
