  • Publication number: 20260101361
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications supporting scheduling and resource reservation for multi-slot transmissions are described. A first user equipment (UE) may transmit a sidelink control information (SCI) message to one or more other UEs. The SCI message may reserve sidelink resources across multiple slots. Then, the UE may perform a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure before the multiple slots. In some examples, the LBT procedure may indicate that the reserved sidelink resources are available, and the UE may transmit sidelink data to one or more other UEs via the multiple slots. The sidelink data (e.g., cyclic prefix (CP) associated with the sidelink data) transmitted via the multiple slots may occupy one or more of a gap symbol of the multiple slots, or an automatic gain control (AGC) symbol of the multiple slots.

  • Publication number: 20260075625
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In sidelink communications, multiple user equipments (UE) smay access and utilize communications resources, sense other UEs, and coordinate utilization of resources. A conflict may occur between resource reservations of two UEs. Described techniques provide for a determined transmission by a first UE of a conflict indication message to one UEs. The first UE may account for one or more channel access parameters affecting the likelihood of the second UE and the third UE being able to access the reserved reservations when determining to which UE to transmit the conflict indication message (e.g., which UE is the UE-B). The first channel access parameter and the second channel access parameter may be based on a channel occupancy time, a channel sensing duration, a cyclic prefixed extension, and/or a number of retransmissions, associated with the first resource reservation and the second resource reservation.
