  • Publication number: 20210212043
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A set of user equipments (UEs) may communicate with each other on communication links using data resources from a pool of shared resources. The UEs may be configured to multiplex control resources with data resources of a shared resource pool. In some cases, a UE may communicate, in control resources, control signaling to reserve data resources of a shared resource pool. After transmitting the request, the UE may communicate data in one or more data resources. The UE may communicate the data using transmission components while concurrently processing control signaling using other components.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for determining shared resources associated with one or more user equipments (UEs) for sidelink communications, including control resources and data resources. A first UE may determine a first set of control resources in a first frequency band corresponding to a first group of UEs including the first UE. The first UE may transmit a sidelink request to reserve a subset of data resources to a second UE in the first group of UEs. The first UE may monitor for one or more sidelink responses indicating a positive sidelink response to the sidelink request, a negative sidelink response to the sidelink request, or both. The first UE may determine, based on monitoring for the one or more sidelink responses, whether to transmit a sidelink confirmation indicating a reservation of the data resources to the second UE.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first UE may transmit a sidelink request to a second UE. The sidelink request may indicate a set or a segment of the data resources. A second UE may transmit a positive sidelink response indicating that the set or the segment of resources is available for reservation, or may refrain from transmitting a positive sidelink response if the set or the segment of the data resources is unavailable for reservation. A third UE may transmit a negative sidelink response indicating that the set or the segment of the data resources is unavailable for reservation, or may refrain from transmitting a negative sidelink response if the set or the segment of the data resources is available for reservation. If the requested data resources are available, then the first UE may transmit a sidelink confirmation reserving the requested data resources.

  • Publication number: 20210160851
    Abstract: The described techniques relate to improved methods, systems, devices, and apparatuses that support configurations for sidelink beam management. In some cases, a base station may determine sidelink beams for beam sweeping and instruct a user equipment (UE) which sidelink beams to use. The base station may determine the sidelink beams for beam sweeping based on a report sent from the UE. In other cases, the UE may determine transmission sidelink beams for beam sweeping based on the UE capabilities beam input from the receiving UE, or the base station determining which beams to use and allocating resources for the beam sweeping. Additionally or alternatively, the base station may determine a portion of the sidelink beams for beam sweeping and the UE may determine a portion of the sidelink beams to use for beam sweeping in addition to the beams indicated by the base station.

  • Publication number: 20210160850
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A device may be configured to support multi-beam, or multi-panel operations, or both which may allow multiple sidelink transmissions to occur simultaneously. In some cases, flexible beam-management for the beamformed sidelink communications is implemented to manage the beams. A transmitting UE may indicate transmission beam information to the base station that the base station may use to schedule sidelink transmissions as part of a beam management procedure. The beam management procedure may allow a transmitting UE to update transmission beam information based on the mobility of the sidelink UEs and other environmental factors. In some cases, beam management includes a beam training procedure that may be implemented to refine the sidelink beams, where support for multi-panel and multi-beam operation may allow for multiple beams to be trained simultaneously.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. For a user equipment with a number of M greater than or equal to two antennas, a signal is transmitted from at least a first antenna and a second antenna at a first time with an initial relative phase state including a first relative phase rotation between the signals transmitted by the first and second antennas. In response to a determination that a response signal was not received at the user equipment, the signal is retransmitted from at least the first antenna and the second antenna with a subsequent relative phase state among the transmitting antennas, including a second different relative phase rotation, at a second time. The second time may be the next subsequent retransmission of the signal or may be a retransmission following one or more retransmissions using the first relative phase rotation.
