Claim 9:
10. An apparatus for wireless communications, comprising:
a processor;
memory coupled with the processor; and
instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
receive a channel interlace configuration for transmissions by a user equipment (UE) in a shared radio frequency spectrum band;
perform a per-interlace listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure by measuring an energy level of at least a portion of a channel interlace of the shared radio frequency spectrum band based at least in part on the received channel interlace configuration;
