Channel access and uplink switching
A wireless device receives configuration parameters of a first uplink carrier and a second uplink carrier of an unlicensed cell. A switch is made from the first uplink carrier to the second uplink carrier. A first contention window size determining based on the switch. Based on the first contention window size, a listen before talk procedure is performed for transmission of a transport block in one or more subbands of the second uplink carrier. A transport block is transmitted based on the listen before talk procedure indicating a clear channel.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second contention window corresponds to a channel access priority class associated with the transport block, and wherein the minimum contention window is configured for the channel access priority class.
11. A wireless device comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:
receive configuration parameters of a first uplink carrier and a second uplink carrier of an unlicensed cell;
determine, based on hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback of one or more transmissions via a first channel of the first uplink carrier, a first contention window for a first listen before talk (LBT) procedure for the first uplink carrier;

based on the switching, determine a second contention window to be a minimum contention window of a plurality of contention windows, wherein the second contention window is for a second LBT procedure of a second channel of the second uplink carrier; and
transmit, via the second uplink carrier, a transport block based on the second LBT procedure using the determined second contention window and indicating a clear channel.
12. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein to determine the first contention window size, the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to determine the HARQ feedback received in a reference duration associated with the first uplink carrier.
13. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the switching from the first uplink carrier to the second uplink carrier is based on receiving a downlink control information indicating the switching.
14. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the first uplink carrier is a normal uplink carrier and the second uplink carrier is a supplemental uplink carrier.
15. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the first uplink carrier is a supplemental uplink carrier and the second uplink carrier is a supplemental uplink carrier.
16. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to receive a downlink control information indicating transmission parameters of the transport block.
17. The wireless device of claim 16 , wherein:
