Abstract
The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to provide reduced sensing schemes to facilitate sidelink transmissions.
Claims20
One or more non-transitory, computer-readable media (NTCRM) having instructions that, when executed, cause a user equipment (UE) to:
- operate in a first mode that is a partial sensing mode or a no-sensing mode;
- switch, based on detection of a resource selection trigger, from the first mode to a second mode that is a full-sensing mode;
- sense subchannels of a sidelink resource pool in the full-sensing mode to obtain results;
- select sidelink transmission resources based on the results;
- and
- transmit sidelink data in the sidelink transmission resources.
3 more elements
A method of operating a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
- monitoring, in a monitoring occasion, a restricted set of subchannels of a sidelink resource pool;
- identifying sidelink data available for transmission;
- and
- selecting sidelink resources in the restricted set of subchannels for transmitting the sidelink data.
1 more element
A base station (BS) comprising:
- memory to store configuration information to configure a resource pool or user equipment (UE) for partial sensing of a restricted set of subchannels before performing a resource selection for a sidelink transmission;
- processing circuitry, coupled with the memory, to:
- generate a message to have the configuration information;
- and
- transmit the message to a user equipment.
