Congestion control for sidelink communication

An apparatus for sidelink communication, comprising:

• a memory configured to store instructions;
• and
• one or more processors communicatively coupled with the memory, wherein the one or more processors are configured to:
• identify at least one slot in a measurement window as a channel busy ratio (CBR) relevant slot;
• calculate a CBR based on at least a measurement in at least the CBR relevant slot;
• and
• transmit, or refrain from transmitting, a sidelink transmission based at least on the CBR.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions, executable by a processor, for wireless communications, comprising instructions for:

• identifying at least one slot in a measurement window as a channel busy ratio (CBR) relevant slot;
• calculating a CBR based on at least a measurement in at least the CBR relevant slot;
• and
• transmitting, or refraining from transmitting, a sidelink transmission based at least on the CBR.
