Group resource sharing for wireless communication

An apparatus for wireless communication of a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
• determine that a sidelink channel is available for data transmission;
• and
• transmit sidelink control information (SCI) reserving a channel occupancy time (COT) on the sidelink channel in response to determining that the sidelink channel is available for data transmission, the COT comprising:
• a first set of resources reserved for the UE for sidelink data transmission on the sidelink channel;
• a second set of resources capable of being shared by a UE group including the UE for sidelink transmission on the sidelink channel;
• and
• a third set of resources capable of being shared by one or more UEs outside of the UE group for the sidelink transmission on the sidelink channel.

An apparatus for wireless communication of a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• means for determining that a sidelink channel is available for data transmission;
• and
• means for transmitting sidelink control information (SCI) reserving a channel occupancy time (COT) on the sidelink channel in response to determining that the sidelink channel is available for data transmission, the COT comprising:
• a first set of resources reserved for the UE for sidelink data transmission on the sidelink channel;
• a second set of resources capable of being shared by a UE group including the UE for sidelink transmission on the sidelink channel;
• and
• a third set of resources capable of being shared by one or more UEs outside of the UE group for the sidelink transmission on the sidelink channel.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer executable code of a user equipment (UE), the code when executed by a processor causes the processor to:

• determine that a sidelink channel is available for data transmission;
• and
• transmit sidelink control information (SCI) reserving a channel occupancy time (COT) on the sidelink channel in response to determining that the sidelink channel is available for data transmission, the COT comprising:
• a first set of resources reserved for the UE for sidelink data transmission on the sidelink channel;
• a second set of resources capable of being shared by a UE group including the UE for sidelink transmission on the sidelink channel;
• and
• a third set of resources capable of being shared by one or more UEs outside of the UE group for the sidelink transmission on the sidelink channel.

A method of wireless communication of a first user equipment (UE), comprising:

• receiving, from a second UE, sidelink control information (SCI) reserving a channel occupancy time (COT) on a sidelink channel, the COT comprising:
• a first set of resources capable of being shared by a UE group that includes the second UE and does not include the first UE, and
• a second set of resources capable of being shared by a UE outside of the UE group for sidelink transmissions on the sidelink channel;
• and
• transmitting a sidelink transmission on the sidelink channel using one or more resources of the second set of resources.
