New Radio Unlicensed (NR-U) enables 5G networks to operate in unlicensed channels, including the sub-7 GHz bands where transmitters are required to adhere to a set of contention resolution rules known as listen before talk (LBT). NR-U derives from a scheduled radio access technology where transmissions are expected to begin at fixed slot boundaries. The end of an LBT procedure, however, may not coincide with such a boundary. One solution to this problem is to have the NR-U base station wait a gap period to align with the slot boundary. We design, implement, and validate a simulator of NR-U channel access and conduct a performance analysis to assess several important issues: slot boundary synchronization between NR-U base stations, gap placement methods, impact of transmission settings, and performance under dense deployments. We also propose a method for improving the fairness of contending NR-U base stations and conclude our research with guidelines for configuring NR-U networks operating under gap-based channel access.
