Abstract
Aspects directed towards reserving resources for sidelink communications are disclosed. In one example, an initial sidelink communication is transmitted which includes an indication of resources reserved for a subsequent sidelink communication. A transmission restriction is applied for the subsequent sidelink communication based on a transmission characteristic associated with transmitting the initial sidelink communication. The subsequent sidelink communication is then transmitted according to the transmission restriction.

A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- transmitting an initial sidelink communication, wherein an initial sidelink control information (SCI) transmission in the initial sidelink communication includes an indication of resources reserved for a subsequent sidelink communication;
- applying a transmission restriction for the subsequent sidelink communication, wherein the transmission restriction is based on a transmission characteristic associated with the transmitting of the initial sidelink communication;
- and
- transmitting the subsequent sidelink communication including a subsequent SCI transmission according to the transmission restriction,
- wherein the applying the transmission restriction comprises restricting selection of a subsequent precoder for precoding the subsequent sidelink communication based on an initial precoder for precoding the initial sidelink communication.
A wireless communication device comprising:
- a transceiver;
- a memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the transceiver and the memory, wherein the at least one processor and the memory are configured to:
- transmit an initial sidelink communication, wherein an initial sidelink control information (SCI) transmission in the initial sidelink communication includes an indication of resources reserved for a subsequent sidelink communication;
- apply a transmission restriction for the subsequent sidelink communication including a subsequent SCI transmission, wherein the transmission restriction is based on a transmission characteristic associated with transmitting the initial sidelink communication;
- and
- transmit the subsequent sidelink communication according to the transmission restriction,
- wherein the at least one processor and the memory configured to apply the transmission restriction are further configured to restrict selection of a subsequent precoder for precoding the subsequent sidelink communication based on an initial precoder for precoding the initial sidelink communication.
A wireless communication device for wireless communication comprising:
- means for transmitting an initial sidelink communication, wherein an initial sidelink control information (SCI) transmission in the initial sidelink communication includes an indication of resources reserved for a subsequent sidelink communication;
- means for applying a transmission restriction for the subsequent sidelink communication including a subsequent SCI transmission, wherein the transmission restriction is based on a transmission characteristic associated with transmitting the initial sidelink communication;
- and
- means for transmitting the subsequent sidelink communication according to the transmission restriction,
- wherein the means for applying the transmission restriction is further configured to restrict selection of a subsequent precoder for precoding the subsequent sidelink communication based on an initial precoder for precoding the initial sidelink communication.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions for a wireless communication device thereon, wherein the instructions, when executed by a processing circuit, cause the processing circuit to:
- transmit an initial sidelink communication, wherein an initial sidelink control information (SCI) transmission in the initial sidelink communication includes an indication of resources reserved for a subsequent sidelink communication;
- apply a transmission restriction for the subsequent sidelink communication including a subsequent SCI transmission, wherein the transmission restriction is based on a transmission characteristic associated with transmitting the initial sidelink communication;
- and
- transmit the subsequent sidelink communication according to the transmission restriction,
- wherein the instructions causing the processing circuit to applying the transmission restrictions are configured to restrict selection of a subsequent precoder for precoding the subsequent sidelink communication based on an initial precoder for precoding the initial sidelink communication.
