Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A receiving wireless device may determine that a data communication is scheduled for the wireless device on a channel of a shared radio frequency spectrum band during a transmission opportunity (TxOP) spanning a plurality of slots. The receiving wireless device may identify a subset of slots from the plurality of slots, wherein the subset of slots is associated with a channel reservation signal by the wireless device. The receiving wireless device may receive the data communication at the wireless device during the TxOP using a beam configuration. The receiving wireless device may perform repeated transmissions of the channel reservation signal based at least in part on the beam configuration during the subset of slots and within a time period associated with receiving the data communication.
