  • Publication number: 20240023143
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a solution for improving sidelink communications between terminal devices. In a method for communication, a first terminal device may transmit an assistance information to a network device. The assistance information may be used by the network device to determine a sidelink resource for a sidelink communication between the first terminal device and a second terminal device. Then, the first terminal device can receive an indication of the sidelink resource determined based on the assistance information from the network device. Afterwards, the first terminal device may perform the sidelink communication between the first and the second terminal devices using the sidelink resource. In this way, the resource utilization efficiency can be enhanced or the interference level may be reduced in sidelink communications, thereby improving the performance of the sidelink communications.
