Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A wireless communication device may receive a configuration indicating SL synchronization communication resources occupying a first portion of a shared frequency band. The wireless communication device may transmit one or more SL synchronization communications occupying a second portion of the shared frequency band, where the second portion of the shared frequency band is larger than the first portion and includes the first portion.
Claims30
A method of wireless communication performed at a wireless communication device, the method comprising:
- receiving a first configuration indicating sidelink (SL) synchronization communication resources, wherein the SL synchronization communication resources comprise a first portion of a shared frequency band for a SL synchronization communication, wherein the SL synchronization communication resources comprise a first slot and a second slot, and wherein a SL synchronization communication candidate occupies at least a portion of the first slot and at least a portion of the second slot;
- and
- transmitting, in accordance with the first configuration, the SL synchronization communication rate matched to occupy a second portion of the shared frequency band, the second portion of the shared frequency band being larger than the first portion of the shared frequency band and including the first portion of the shared frequency band.
An apparatus, comprising:
- one or more processors and one or more code-storing memories coupled with the one or more processors, the one or more processors when configured cause the apparatus to:
- receive a first configuration indicating sidelink (SL) synchronization communication resources, wherein the SL synchronization communication resources comprise a first portion of a shared frequency band for a SL synchronization communication, wherein the SL synchronization communication resources comprise a first slot and a second slot, and wherein a SL synchronization communication candidate occupies at least a portion of the first slot and at least a portion of the second slot;
- and
- transmit, in accordance with the first configuration, the SL synchronization communication rate matched to occupy a second portion of the shared frequency band, the second portion of the shared frequency band being larger than the first portion of the shared frequency band and including the first portion of the shared frequency band.
A non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions for wireless communication, the set of instructions comprising:
- one or more instructions that, when executed at a wireless communication device, cause the wireless communication device to:
- receive a first configuration indicating sidelink (SL) synchronization communication resources, wherein the SL synchronization communication resources comprise a first portion of a shared frequency band for a SL synchronization communication, wherein the SL synchronization communication resources comprise a first slot and a second slot, and wherein a SL synchronization communication candidate occupies at least a portion of the first slot and at least a portion of the second slot;
- and
- transmit, in accordance with the first configuration, the SL synchronization communication rate matched to occupy a second portion of the shared frequency band, the second portion of the shared frequency band being larger than the first portion of the shared frequency band and including the first portion of the shared frequency band.
A wireless communication device, comprising:
- means for receiving a first configuration indicating sidelink (SL) synchronization communication resources, wherein the SL synchronization communication resources comprise a first portion of a shared frequency band for a SL synchronization communication, wherein the SL synchronization communication resources comprise a first slot and a second slot, and wherein a SL synchronization communication candidate occupies at least a portion of the first slot and at least a portion of the second slot;
- and
- means for transmitting, in accordance with the first configuration, the SL synchronization communication rate matched to occupy a second portion of the shared frequency band, the second portion of the shared frequency band being larger than the first portion of the shared frequency band and including the first portion of the shared frequency band.
