Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 8:
9. A device for wireless communication, the device comprising:
a memory configured to store instructions; and
a processor configured to perform operations by executing the instructions, the operations comprising:
receiving, in a first period for a base station (BS)-initiated channel occupancy, downlink control information (DCI) for a scheduled uplink (UL) transmission on a shared spectrum, and
performing a channel access procedure for the scheduled UL transmission associated with a device-initiated channel occupancy,
wherein, i) the scheduled UL transmission is entirely confined in the first period for the BS-initiated channel occupancy and ii) the scheduled UL transmission is not time-aligned with a beginning of a second period for the device-initiated channel occupancy, and
wherein:
the processor performs the scheduled UL transmission based on that the device has already initiated a channel occupancy in the second period, and
the processor drops the scheduled UL transmission based on that the device has not initiated the channel occupancy in the second period.
