In one embodiment, the LBT based RLF procedure detects and reports an LBT failure for an RB set by the PHY layer; determines a consistent LBT (C-LBT) for the RB set based on a C-LBT threshold at the MAC layer and determines an RLF when all configured RB sets for the SL connection is determined to be C-LBT. In another novel aspect, multiple PSFCH occasions are configured for one PSSCH/PSCCH at a consecutive symbol level, a non-consecutive symbol level, a consecutive slot level or a non-consecutive slot level.
