A selection of a sequence of the SL-WUS or a selection of the configured resource indicates a type of information requested by the first UE. The second UE receives the SL-WUS, wakes up during a DRX on duration, and transmits the requested information. The first UE receives the type of information requested by the first UE.

Abstract: Aspects relate cross-pool resource reservations of resources for sidelink-positioning reference signals (SL-PRS). A wireless communication device can transmit a first SL-PRS resource reservation message within resources in a SL communication resource pool. The first SL-PRS resource reservation message may identify a first SL-PRS resource within a SL-PRS resource pool. The wireless communication device can also transmit a first SL-PRS in the first SL-PRS resource within the SL-PRS resource pool. The wireless communication device can also receive a second SL-PRS resource reservation message within resources in the SL communication resource pool. The second SL-PRS resource reservation message may identify a second SL-PRS resource within the SL-PRS resource pool. The wireless communication device may then receive a second SL-PRS in second SL-PRS resource within the SL-PRS resource pool. The SL communication resource pool may be different from the SL-PRS resource pool.
