Publication number: 20250056260Abstract: A sidelink (SL) wireless transmit and receive unit (WTRU) may be configured establish a unicast link with a peer WTRU allowing use of a plurality of SL carriers and transmits data, on at least a first SL carrier to the peer WTRU. The WTRU determines a carrier-specific SL radio link failure (RLF) of the first SL carrier based on a number of detected consecutive hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) discontinuous transmissions (DTXs) exceeding a threshold HARQ DTX count and performs a SL carrier reselection procedure to select a second SL carrier, excluding SL carriers determined with carrier-specific SL RLF. The WTRU transmits, to the peer WTRU on one of the plurality of SL carriers without carrier-specific SL RLF, an indication of the carrier-specific RLF of the first SL carrier. If no SL available SL carrier remains, the WTRU releases the unicast link with the peer WTRU. Additional embodiments are disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 2, 2024Publication date: February 13, 2025Applicant: INTERDIGITAL PATENT HOLDINGS, INC.Inventors: Martino Freda, Tuong Hoang, Aata EI Hamss, Tao Deng, Virgile Garcia

Patent number: 12225581Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may perform a listen before talk (LBT) procedure associated with a sidelink (SL) bandwidth. The SL bandwidth may include a resource block (RB) set. The WTRU may determine a CSLF associated with the RB set of the SL bandwidth based on the LBT procedure. The WTRU may determine a resource for reporting the CSLF, for example, based on a priority rule. The priority rule may indicate that a licensed resource has a higher priority than an unlicensed resource. The priority rule may indicate that, if a consistent LBT failure is not detected on an unlicensed uplink (UL) resource, the unlicensed UL resource has a higher priority than an unlicensed SL resource. The WTRU may send a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) using the determined resource. In examples, the MAC CE may indicate the RB set.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2024Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: InterDigital Patent Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Faris Alfarhan, Martino M.
