Channel occupancy time (COT) sharing propagation

A user equipment (UE) comprising:

• a transceiver configured to:
• receive a first message from a first device, the first device includes an originator of a first channel occupancy time (COT), wherein the first message includes the source ID of the first device, sharing information associated with the first COT, or a combination thereof;
• and
• receive a second message including the source ID of the first device from a second device;
• at least one processor;
• and
• a memory coupled with the at least one processor and storing processor-readable code that, when executed by the at least one processor, is configured to determine whether to attempt access of a resource during the COT based on the first and second messages.

An apparatus configured for wireless communication, the apparatus comprising:

• means for receiving a first message from a first device, the first device includes an originator of a first channel occupancy time (COT), wherein the first message includes the source ID of the first device, sharing information associated with the first COT, or a combination thereof;
• means for receiving a second message including the source ID of the first device from a second device;
• and
• means for determining whether to attempt access of a resource during the COT based on the first and second messages.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a first message from a first device, the first device includes an originator of a first channel occupancy time (COT), wherein the first message includes the source ID of the first device, sharing information associated with the first COT, or a combination thereof;
• receiving a second message including the source ID of the first device from a second device;
• and
• determining whether to attempt access of a resource during the COT based on the first and second messages.
