Sidelink discontinuous reception(sl drx) for quality of service (qos) and power saving

An apparatus for wireless communication by a user-equipment (UE), comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• one or more processors coupled to the memory, the memory and the one or more processors being configured to:
• receive one or more configurations for sidelink discontinuous reception (DRX);
• determine a sidelink DRX pattern associated with a communication based on the one or more configurations for sidelink DRX, the communication comprising a communication among UEs using a service via broadcast, a communication among UEs of a group via groupcast, or a communication between a UE pair via unicast;
• and
• communicate with one or more other UEs on sidelink using the determined DRX pattern.

An apparatus for wireless communication by a user-equipment (UE), comprising:

• means for receiving one or more configurations for sidelink discontinuous reception (DRX);
• means for determining a sidelink DRX pattern associated with a communication based on the one or more configurations for sidelink DRX, the communication comprising a communication among UEs using a service via broadcast, a communication among UEs of a group via groupcast, or a communication between a UE pair via unicast;
• and
• means for communicating with one or more other UEs on sidelink using the determined DRX pattern.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a user equipment (UE), cause the UE to:

• receive one or more configurations for sidelink discontinuous reception (DRX);
• determine a sidelink DRX pattern associated with a communication based on the one or more configurations for sidelink DRX, the communication comprising a communication among UEs using a service via broadcast, a communication among UEs of a group via groupcast, or a communication between a UE pair via unicast;
• and
• communicate with one or more other UEs on sidelink using the determined DRX pattern.
