Abstract: Aspects relate to mechanisms for sidelink reservation across frequency bands. In some examples, a sidelink device may be configured to communicate over a first frequency band (e.g., a sub-6 gigahertz frequency band) and a second frequency band (e.g., a millimeter wave frequency band) with one or more other sidelink devices. The sidelink device may further be configured to perform cross-link resource reservation for a sidelink transmission in which a resource reservation message transmitted on the first frequency band indicates reserved resources within the second frequency band for the sidelink transmission. The sidelink device may then transmit sidelink control information (SCI) within a sidelink control channel on the second frequency band and user data traffic corresponding to the SCI within a sidelink data channel on the second frequency band.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to mechanisms for sidelink communication across frequency bands. In some examples, a wireless communication device may be configured to communicate over a first frequency band (e.g., a “sub-6 GHz band”) and a second frequency band (e.g., a “millimeter wave band”) with one or more other wireless communication devices. The wireless communication device may further be configured to perform cross-link scheduling of a transmission in which sidelink control information (SCI) is transmitted within a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH) on the first frequency band and data corresponding to the SCI is transmitted within a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) on the second frequency band.

Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for vehicle emergency vehicle-to-anything (V2X) notification based on sensor fusion are presented. In some embodiments, a vehicle may receive an indication of an issue or impairment of the vehicle or an occupant of the vehicle, including the driver. Using information from sensors within the vehicle, an on-board processor may determine the nature of the impairment. Information about the nature of the impairment may then be transmitted, using V2X notification, to neighboring vehicles and/or an infrastructure entity (e.g., a base station, a roadside unit, a radio tower, and/or a central application server). The neighboring vehicles may then negotiate using V2X communication with the impaired vehicle and the other neighboring vehicles and/or be directed by the infrastructure entity to proceed using a negotiated course of action that accounts for the nature of the impairment in the impaired vehicle.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for transmit/receive (TX/RX) beam association in millimeter wave (mmW) vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications. In conventional wireless systems, a node (e.g., gNB) that manages wireless resources is typically stationary. This means that transmissions from the network node over the same TX beam using the same antenna array orientation can be assumed to be quasi-collocated (QCLed) and communications may be established using fixed-to-mobile beam management approach. However, if the transmitting node is mobile, a quasi-collocation (QCL) assumption may not be valid. To address issues due to mobility of the nodes that manage wireless resources, a mobile-to-mobile beam management approach is proposed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for link adaptation in a satellite communication system, wherein a satellite is configured to receive reverse-link (RL) communications from a user terminal (UT) via a service link and retransmit the RL communications to a satellite access network (SAN) via a feeder link. The SAN may select a reference location for the UT within a footprint of the satellite, and determine a set of operating parameters for the RL communications to achieve a target power efficiency of the satellite based on the reference location. The SAN may dynamically adjust one or more of the operating parameters, while maintaining the target power efficiency of the satellite, based at least in part on channel conditions in at least one of the service link, the feeder link, or a combination thereof. Among other advantages, the method disclosed herein may optimize RL communications based on the capabilities of the satellite.
