Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to COT aware autonomous sidelink sensing are provided. A first user equipment (UE) selects at least a first resource from available resources in a sidelink resource pool within a shared radio frequency band. The selecting the first resource may be based on a channel-access gap preceding each resource of the available resources. The first UE further transmits, to a second UE using the selected first resource, one or more data blocks for a sidelink transmission.

The UE transmits a Msg A in a configured Msg A PRACH occasion and a Msg A PUSCH resource based on an RB set for the Msg A PRACH and the one or more parameters for the Msg A PUSCH configuration.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may detect a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission associated with a multi-PDSCH semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) that potentially conflicts with a second transmission in a slot. The UE may determine to keep at least one of the PDSCH transmission associated with the multi-PDSCH SPS or the second transmission in the slot based at least in part on one or more rules. The UE may perform, with a base station in the slot, at least one of the PDSCH transmission associated with the multi-PDSCH SPS or the second transmission that is kept based at least in part on the one or more rules. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described that provide for reduced timing between certain downlink communications and responsive uplink communications relative to certain legacy systems (e.g., legacy LTE systems). A user equipment (UE) or base station may be capable of operating using two or more timing configurations that each include an associated time period between receipt of a downlink communication (e.g., a grant of uplink resources or shared channel data) and a responsive uplink communication (e.g., an uplink transmission using the granted uplink resources or feedback of successful reception of the shared channel data). In cases where a UE or base station are capable of two or more timing configurations, a timing configuration for a transmission may be determined and the responsive uplink communication transmitted according to the determined timing configuration.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may select, within a resource selection window, a set of resources in which to transmit over an unlicensed sidelink channel. The UE may attempt a listen before talk (LBT) procedure to initiate a channel occupancy time in which to transmit over the unlicensed sidelink channel. The UE may adjust, within at least a portion of the resource selection window, the set of resources in which to transmit over the unlicensed sidelink channel to be contiguous in at least a time domain based at least in part on the LBT procedure succeeding.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In some cases, a first user equipment (UE) may perform a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure to identify a channel occupancy time (COT). The COT may include some slots for transmitting a sidelink message and some sidelink synchronization signal block (S-SSB) slots for transmitting S-SSBs. In some examples, to fill a gap created by the S-SSB slots within the COT and thus maintain the COT across the S-SSB slots, the first UE or the second UE may transmit some signaling to provide transmissions in the S-SSB slots. For example, the first UE may transmit a padding signal, the second UE may transmit S-SSBs, or the UEs may use a gap control procedure. Upon filling the gap, the first UE may transmit a sidelink message to the second UE in slots of the COT excluding the S-SSB slots.

The UE may receive an indication from a base station (BS) regarding what CAPC to use, or it may itself determine the CAPC based on a rule. The UE may map the plurality of QoS flows to the DRB and transmit the QoS flows using the DRB and the selected CAPC.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for sidelink channel access via a floating channel occupancy. In some aspects, a cellular device may operate within a proximity of one or more wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) devices and may conditionally support a search space associated with a floating sidelink synchronization signal block (SSB). For example, if the cellular device detects that the Wi-Fi devices are precluding the cellular device from acquiring channel access or otherwise making it relatively more difficult for the cellular device to acquire channel access, the cellular device may enable or active a use of the search space associated with the floating sidelink SSB. If enabled or activated, the cellular device may transmit a floating sidelink SSB within the search space independent of slot boundaries upon a successful listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a base station may use a downlink control information (DCI) message to indicate timing resources to a user equipment (UE) for multiple downlink data repetitions in a slot. In a first implementation, the base station may indicate an explicit time domain resource allocation (TDRA) for one repetition in the TDRA field of the DCI, and the UE may determine implicit TDRAs for the other repetitions based on the explicit TDRA. In a second implementation, the base station may indicate a total TDRA for the full set of repetitions in the TDRA field, and the UE may divide the total TDRA into individual TDRAs for the repetitions. The UE may receive the downlink data repetitions based on determining the TDRAs and may transmit a feedback message in response based on a hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) codebook.
