Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may receive, from a base station, a slot configuration identifying one or more symbols to be used for sidelink communications. The user equipment may transmit an indication of the slot configuration to another user equipment to configure the other user equipment to use the identified one or more symbols for sidelink communications. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Claims30
A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment, comprising:
- receiving, from a network entity, an indication of a semi-static slot configuration that specifies:
- one or more first symbols to be used for sidelink communications, and
- one or more second symbols to be dynamically configured by the network entity;
- receiving, from the network entity, a slot configuration identifying one or more third symbols to be used for sidelink communications,
- wherein the slot configuration identifying the one or more third symbols comprises a dynamic slot configuration that causes the one or more second symbols to be dynamically configured by the network entity as the one or more third symbols;
- and
- transmitting a sidelink communication using the one or more first symbols or the one or more third symbols.
A user equipment, comprising:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, configured to:
- receive, from a network entity, an indication of a semi-static slot configuration that specifies:
- one or more first symbols to be used for sidelink communications, and
- one or more second symbols to be dynamically configured by the network entity;
- receive, from the network entity, a slot configuration identifying one or more third symbols to be used for sidelink communications,
- wherein the slot configuration identifying the one or more third symbols comprises a dynamic slot configuration that causes the one or more second symbols to be dynamically configured by the network entity as the one or more third symbols;
- and
- transmit a sidelink communication using the one or more first symbols or the one or more third symbols.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions comprising:
- one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a user equipment, cause the user equipment to:
- receive, from a network entity, an indication of a semi-static slot configuration that specifies:
- one or more first symbols to be used for sidelink communications, and
- one or more second symbols to be dynamically configured by the network entity;
- receive, from the network entity, a slot configuration identifying one or more third symbols to be used for sidelink communications,
- wherein the slot configuration identifying the one or more third symbols comprises a dynamic slot configuration that causes the one or more second symbols to be dynamically configured by the network entity as the one or more third symbols;
- and
- transmit a sidelink communication using the one or more first symbols or the one or more third symbols.
An apparatus, comprising:
- means for receiving, from a network entity, an indication of a semi-static slot configuration that specifies:
- one or more first symbols to be used for sidelink communications, and
- one or more second symbols to be dynamically configured by the network entity;
- means for receiving, from the network entity, a slot configuration identifying one or more third symbols to be used for sidelink communications,
- wherein the slot configuration identifying the one or more third symbols comprises a dynamic slot configuration that causes the one or more second symbols to be dynamically configured by the network entity as the one or more third symbols;
- and
- means for transmitting a sidelink communication using the one or more first symbols or the one or more third symbols.
