Abstract: A terminal includes a control unit configured to perform resource selection by which a channel receiving a response related to retransmission control is secured, in a case where the terminal selects a resource to be used autonomously from resource candidates, a transmission unit configured to transmit data to another terminal using the resource candidates, and a reception unit configured to receive the response related to retransmission control corresponding to the data from the another terminal.
Abstract: Methods and systems include beamformed wireless communications to and from a user equipment electronic device. During operation of the user equipment electronic device, a change in slot aggregation is made. Using the aggregated slots, the user equipment electronic device and/or a wireless network utilize beam sweeps to determine a best beam pairing by repeating a shared channel in the aggregated slots with a beam sweep of multiple beams between the user equipment electronic device and the wireless network.
