## Abstract

A system and method for reference signaling design and configuration are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the system and method are configured to receive, by a first wireless communication device from a wireless communication node, configuration information of a sidelink medium access control (MAC) control element (CE). The system and method are also configured to transmit, by the first wireless communication device according to the configuration information, the sidelink MAC CE to a second wireless communication device.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A wireless communication method, comprising:
receiving, by a first wireless communication device from a wireless communication node, configuration information of a sidelink medium access control (MAC) control element (CE); and
transmitting, by the first wireless communication device according to the configuration information, the sidelink MAC CE to a second wireless communication device.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The wireless communication method of claim 1, wherein the sidelink MAC CE includes a channel status information (CSI) report.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The wireless communication method of claim 1, wherein the sidelink MAC CE further includes a rank indicator (RI) report.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The wireless communication method of claim 1,
wherein the configuration information of the sidelink MAC CE includes
a first indicator configured to indicate which scheduling request configuration is applicable for the sidelink MAC CE.

### Claim 5

A wireless communication method, comprising:
transmitting, by a wireless communication node to a first wireless communication device, configuration information of a sidelink medium access control (MAC) control element (CE); and
wherein the first wireless communication device transmits, according to the configuration information, the sidelink MAC CE to a second wireless communication device.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The wireless communication method of claim 5, wherein the sidelink MAC CE includes a channel status information (CSI) report.

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

The wireless communication method of claim 5, wherein the sidelink MAC CE further includes a rank indicator (RI) report.

### Claim 8 (depends on 5)

The wireless communication method of claim 5, wherein the configuration information of the sidelink MAC CE includes a first indicator configured to indicate which scheduling request configuration is applicable for the sidelink MAC CE.

### Claim 9

A first wireless communication device, comprising:
at least one processor configured to:
receive, via a transceiver from a wireless communication node, configuration information of a sidelink medium access control (MAC) control element (CE); and
transmit, via the transceiver according to the configuration information, the sidelink MAC CE to a second wireless communication device.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The first wireless communication device of claim 9, wherein the sidelink MAC CE includes a channel status information (CSI) report.

### Claim 11 (depends on 9)

The first wireless communication device of claim 9, wherein the sidelink MAC CE further includes a rank indicator (RI) report.

### Claim 12 (depends on 9)

The first wireless communication device of claim 9, wherein the configuration information of the sidelink MAC CE includes a first indicator configured to indicate which scheduling request configuration is applicable for the sidelink MAC CE.

### Claim 13

A wireless communication node, comprising:
at least one processor configured to:
transmitting, via a transmitter to a first wireless communication device, configuration information of a sidelink medium access control (MAC) control element (CE); and
wherein the first wireless communication device transmits, according to the configuration information, the sidelink MAC CE to a second wireless communication device.

### Claim 14 (depends on 13)

The wireless communication node of claim 13, wherein the sidelink MAC CE includes a channel status information (CSI) report.

### Claim 15 (depends on 13)

The wireless communication node of claim 13, wherein the sidelink MAC CE further includes a rank indicator (RI) report.

### Claim 16 (depends on 13)
