1. A method of operating a wireless device in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:
receiving shared channel occupancy time, COT, signaling from a Radio Access Network, RAN, node of the wireless communication network;
receiving an indication of a control resource from the RAN node;
receiving an indication of a shared COT switching point defining a switch from shared COT reception to shared COT transmission; and
transmitting control signaling to the RAN node using the control resource responsive to receiving the indication of the shared COT switching point and the indication of the control resource; wherein receiving the indication of the control resource comprises receiving a shared COT structure indication including an indication for a physical uplink control channel, PUCCH, resource and/or a physical uplink shared channel, PUSCH, and receiving an indication outside of the shared COT structure indication of a dedicated PUCCH resource, and wherein the shared COT structure indication includes the indication of the shared COT switching point.
