Publication number: 20260239392Abstract: A first wireless device determines a sidelink listen-before-talk (LBT) failure for a first resource block (RB) set, of RB sets of a first sidelink carrier of one or more sidelink carriers. The first wireless device starts a sidelink LBT failure detection timer for the first RB set. The first wireless device determines a consistent LBT failure for the first RB set based on a counter value of a sidelink LBT counter for the first RB set. The first wireless device determines a sidelink RLF detection for multiple destination identifiers associated with unicast service. Determining the sidelink RLF detection is based on a consistent LBT failure having been triggered in all RB sets of a sidelink resource pool configured in a first sidelink bandwidth part (BWP). The first wireless device releases multiple unicast links associated with the multiple destination identifiers.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 30, 2026Publication date: August 13, 2026Applicant: Ofinno, LLCInventors: Hyoungsuk Jeon, Huifa Lin, Esmael Hejazi Dinan, Hua Zhou, Ali Cagatay Cirik, Gautham Prasad, Nazanin Rastegardoost
