Dynamic sidelink power control

An apparatus for wireless communication at a first user equipment (UE), comprising:

• a processor;
• memory coupled with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• receive, from a network entity, control information indicating one or more sidelink resources allocated to the first UE for sidelink communications;
• receive, from the network entity, an indication that use of downlink power control parameters in determination of a sidelink transmission power for the sidelink communications is to be disabled at the first UE;
• and
• transmit, to a second UE, a sidelink message using at least one sidelink resource of the one or more sidelink resources and with the sidelink transmission power determined at the first UE in accordance with the indication.

An apparatus for wireless communication at a network entity, comprising:

• a processor;
• memory coupled with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• output control information indicating one or more sidelink resources allocated to a first user equipment (UE) for sidelink communications;
• and
• output an indication that use of downlink power control parameters in determination of a sidelink transmission power is to be disabled at the first UE for one or more sidelink communication between the first UE and at least a second UE.
