1. A method, performed at a network node of a wireless communications network, for discovery signaling for operation in an unlicensed band, the method comprising:
generating an indicator based on one or more control information to be transmitted in a control signal for discovery, wherein the indicator is indicative of content of the control signal;
applying a first modulation or coding scheme on the indicator and applying a second modulation or coding scheme on the control signal, wherein the second modulation or coding scheme is different from the first modulation or coding scheme; and
transmitting the indicator and the control signal for discovery in a transmission
occasion,
whereby an associated wireless electronic device of the wireless communications network may process the control information based on the indicator.
