Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may utilize priority levels associated with packets or transmissions to determine whether to transmit feedback for a received transmission. The UE may compare priority levels between a transmission subject to a feedback condition and a transmission scheduled to be received when the feedback is scheduled to be transmitted to determine whether to send the feedback. The UE may communicate with the transmitting device according to the comparison and the determining. The UE may determine signal conditions causing a NAK and determine to send the NAK based on the signal conditions.

Abstract: A method of wireless communication by a receiving sidelink user equipment (UE) includes receiving a first original message from a first transmitting sidelink UE. The method also includes receiving, from a network coding device, a network coded (NC) packet that is coded across the first original message and a second original message from a second transmitting sidelink UE. The first original message corresponds to a first transport block. The second original message corresponds to a second transport block. The method further includes transmitting a first negative acknowledgment (NACK) in response to the first transport block being unsuccessfully decoded. The method still further includes transmitting a second NACK in response to the second transport block being unsuccessfully decoded. The method still further includes transmitting a first acknowledgment (ACK) in response to the first transport block being successfully decoded.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) sense sidelink transmissions to determine a set of resources that may be reserved by one or more other UEs. The set of resources may include a first subset of resources associated with a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second subset of resources associated with a second, different RAT. The first UE may transmit a message to a second UE indicating resource information for transmissions by the second UE, and the resource information may indicate that the first subset of resources is associated with the first RAT and that the second subset of resources is associated with the second RAT. Additionally, or alternatively, the first UE may transmit an indication of collisions between resources reserved for transmissions associated with the first RAT and resources reserved for transmissions associated with the second RAT.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may communicate with one or more other UEs using multiple transmissions in a device-to-device (D2D) communications deployment. A number of UEs may be configured with D2D resources, and a transmitting UE may identify available D2D resources from the configured resources. The transmitting UE may identify a resource for a first transmission of a D2D transmission from the available D2D resources, and may identify a second resource for a second transmission of the D2D transmission. The second transmission may be a blind HARQ transmission that may be transmitted to enhance the likelihood that one or more receiving UEs successfully receive the transmission. In some examples, the second resource may be identified based on other available resources within an predetermined time window around the first transmission.

Abstract: Various aspects of the disclosure relate to the selection and use of modulation and coding scheme (MCS) values. For example, a first MCS table may be used for a first condition and a second MCS table used for a second condition. The disclosure relates in some aspects to inter-device signaling that indicates which MCS table is to be used for communication between the devices.

Abstract: Aspects relate to dynamic resource sharing for sidelink communication. In some examples, a user equipment (UE) may modify a first sidelink transmission resource set associated with a first radio access technology (RAT) to exclude at least one resource indicated by a second sidelink transmission resource set associated with a second RAT. In some examples, a UE may prioritize certain transmissions. For example, a UE may drop a sidelink reception operation if there is a conflict with a sidelink transmission operation. In some examples, a UE may prioritize a particular RAT. For example, a UE may drop a sidelink transmission operation on a first RAT if there is a conflict with a sidelink transmission operation on a second RAT (e.g., the second RAT is deemed to have a higher priority).

Abstract: A sidelink user equipment (UE) limits sensing of received sidelink communications during a sensing window. The UE selects resources for a future transmission from a resource pool that is based on the sensed received sidelink communications. The UE also sends the future transmission on the selected resources. Limiting sensing may result from reducing a maximum distance between reservations to less than 32 logical slots. Limiting sensing may be sensing with a reduced sensing duty cycle with discontinuous sensing or sensing for a period of time in response to a trigger. The UE may perform partial sensing for periodic traffic, and limit sensing for aperiodic traffic.
