Ssb multiplexing and rmsi monitoring in nr-u

A method of wireless communication, comprising:

• receiving, by a user equipment (UE), a synchronization signal block (SSB) configuration for a discovery signal detection window having a plurality of communication slots;
• monitoring, by the UE, for a control resource set (CORESET) based on a beginning of transmissions within the discovery signal detection window;
• and
• decoding, by the UE, the CORESET for system information.

An apparatus configured for wireless communication, the apparatus comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• a memory coupled to the at least one processor,
• wherein the at least one processor is configured:
• to receive, by a user equipment (UE), a synchronization signal block (SSB) configuration for a discovery signal detection window having a plurality of communication slots, wherein, based on the SSB configuration, UE identifies random access resource and time and frequency locations to monitor remaining minimum system information (RMSI) configured for each SSB;
• to receive, by the UE, an SSB transmission indicator;
• to map, by the UE, the SSB configuration using the SSB transmission indicator to determine one or more SSB for rate matching in one or more slots of the plurality of communication slots;
• and
• to rate match, by the UE, data transmission around each of the one or more SSBs in the one or more slots.
