## Abstract

Provided is a method for a terminal to transmit sidelink signals in a wireless communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprising the steps of: determining transmission power of a sidelink packet in each of a plurality of carriers; and on the basis of the determined transmission power, transmitting the sidelink signals through one or more carriers of the plurality of the carriers, wherein the transmission power is determined on the basis of a priority of the sidelink packet scheduled for transmission on each of the plurality of carriers, a sum of the transmission power of the sidelink packet scheduled for transmission on each of the plurality of carriers, and maximum transmission power of the terminal. The UE is capable of communicating with at least one of another UE, a UE related to an autonomous driving vehicle, the BS or a network.

## Claims

### Claim 1

determining a transmission power of a sidelink packet for each of a plurality of carriers; and
transmitting the sidelink signal on at least one carrier among the plurality of carriers based on the determined transmission power,
wherein the transmission power is determined based on priorities of sidelink packets scheduled to be respectively transmitted on the plurality of carriers, a sum of transmission powers of the sidelink packets scheduled to be respectively transmitted on the plurality of carriers, and a maximum transmission power of the UE.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The method of claim 9, wherein the third transmission power adjustment is sequentially performed from the packet with the lowest priority until the sum of the transmission powers of the sidelink packets scheduled to be respectively transmitted on the plurality of carriers becomes less than or equal to the maximum transmission power is performed.
