Abstract
Wireless communications for a sidelink are described. A wireless devices and/or a base station may determine at least one resource and/or time period for communications via a sidelink. The base station and/or the wireless device may schedule sidelink communication, based on the determined resource(s) and/or time period(s), which may increase the likelihood of successful sidelink communications between wireless devices.
Claims28
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a first wireless device from a base station:
- an indication of a resource pool for sidelink communication;
- and
- an indication of a time interval for disallowed sidelink signal transmission;
- determining, by the first wireless device, at least one resource, outside the time interval and from the resource pool, for sidelink signal transmission to a second wireless device;
- and
- sending, by the first wireless device to the second wireless device using the at least one resource, a sidelink signal.
A first wireless device comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the first wireless device to:
- receive, from a base station:
- an indication of a resource pool for sidelink communication;
- and
- an indication of a time interval for disallowed sidelink signal transmission;
- determine at least one resource, outside the time interval and from the resource pool, for sidelink signal transmission to a second wireless device;
- and
- send, to the second wireless device using the at least one resource, a sidelink signal.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, configure a first wireless device to:
- receive, from a base station:
- an indication of a resource pool for sidelink communication;
- and
- an indication of a time interval for disallowed sidelink signal transmission;
- determine at least one resource, outside the time interval and from the resource pool, for sidelink signal transmission to a second wireless device;
- and
- send, to the second wireless device using the at least one resource, a sidelink signal.
A system comprising:
- a first wireless device;
- and
- a base station configured to:
- send, to the first wireless device:
- an indication of a resource pool for sidelink communication;
- and
- an indication of a time interval for disallowed sidelink signal transmission,
- wherein the first wireless device is configured to:
- determine at least one resource, outside the time interval and from the resource pool, for sidelink signal transmission to a second wireless device;
- and
- send, to the second wireless device using the at least one resource, a sidelink signal.
