  • Patent number: 11729812
    Abstract: Aspects relate to obtaining, at a first scheduled entity, a first priority ranking of first uplink (UL) data scheduled for transmission to a scheduling entity and a first data scheduled for transmission to a second scheduled data, as well as a second priority ranking of second data scheduled for transmission to a third and fourth scheduled entity, respectively. The scheduling uses at least a portion of a sidelink resource reserved for sidelink communication for the transmissions. The scheduling of the transmissions using at least the portion of the sidelink resource are based on the first priority ranking and the second priority ranking. Various transmission cancellation and reception preemptions are transmitted from transmitting scheduled entities to other transmitting or receiving scheduled entities, respectively. Such cancellations and preemptions are based on the priority rankings, prediction of data transmission collisions and prediction of interference at receiving entities.
