Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatuses for a resource conflict indicator transmission in a sidelink wireless communication system in 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) 5G networks. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method performed by a user equipment (UE) includes: receiving two or more control signals from two or more UEs, wherein one control signal received from each UE within the two or more UEs indicates one or more reserved resources for the each UE; detecting whether there is a resource conflict among reserved resources for the two or more UEs; upon detecting the resource conflict, selecting a transmission resource from a set of resources, wherein each resource within the set of resources is used for a resource conflict indictor transmission; and transmitting, to at least one UE within the two or more UEs, a resource conflict indictor on the selected transmission resource.

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for efficient cross-carrier scheduling of multiple slots. One apparatus includes a transceiver and a processor coupled with the transceiver, the processor configured to cause the apparatus to transmit a first control signal to a remote unit, the first control signal indicating a maximum number of HARQ processes, and to transmit a second control signal to the remote unit, where the second control signal is transmitted on a first carrier and where the second control signal schedules a first number of slots on a second carrier. The processor aggregates every two or more of the scheduled first number of slots to a single HARQ process in response to the first number being larger than the maximum number of HARQ processes.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for sidelink communication are disclosed. One method of a Tx/Rx UE comprises reserving resources for one or more sidelink (SL) data transmissions and resources for decoding result feedbacks corresponding to the one or more SL data transmissions; transmitting sidelink control information (SCI) to a second apparatus, which indicates the resources for the SL data transmissions; and receiving at least one of the decoding result feedback and a pre-emption indicator. Another method of a Tx/Rx UE comprises receiving SCI, which indicates resources for the SL data transmissions, from a first apparatus; and transmitting at least one of the decoding result feedback and a pre-emption indicator.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatuses for a pre-emption check procedure for a sidelink transmission in 3 GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) 5G networks. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method performed by a user equipment (UE) includes: receiving, from another UE, information associated with a pre-emption check procedure on another reserved resource of the abovementioned UE; and making an adjustment relating to a transmission on a reserved resource of the UE according to the information.

Abstract: A two-channel burner includes a pulverized coal supply mechanism, a transition channel, an inner secondary air guide tube, an outer secondary air guide tube, a combustion stabilizing chamber, and a flow smoothing chamber. The outer secondary air guide tube, the combustion stabilizing chamber, and the flow smoothing chamber are sequentially connected to form a burner body. The pulverized coal supply mechanism passes through an interior of the burner body. The transition channel is fitted over the pulverized coal supply mechanism. The inner secondary air guide tube is disposed between the transition channel and the outer secondary air guide tube and forms an inner secondary air passage together with the transition channel, and forms an outer secondary air passage together with the outer secondary air guide tube. An outlet end of the inner secondary air guide tube is formed to have a flared opening.
