  • Publication number: 20240040559
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from another UE, a coordination message that includes resource information (e.g., a preference status) for communication resources. The UE receiving the coordination message may determine a status of one or more resources based on the resource information, an intended recipient of the coordination message (e.g., based on a destination identifier of the coordination message), or a communication connection associated with the one or more resources. The status may indicate that a respective resource of the one or more resources is available, reserved, preferred, or non-preferred, or some combination thereof. In some examples, the one or more resources may be for a sidelink connection or a unicast connection. The receiving UE may utilize the determined status to select one or more resources for a sidelink transmission.

  • Patent number: 11882477
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may identify a conflict between sidelink messages in one or more sidelink resources of a set of sidelink resources reserved for communications by a second UE. In response to identifying the conflict, the first UE may measure a system load of a sidelink channel for the sidelink messages and may determine a threshold system load of the sidelink channel based on one or more priorities associated with the conflicting sidelink messages. If the system load satisfies the threshold system load, the first UE may transmit a message that indicates the conflict. Additionally, or alternatively, the first UE may transmit the conflict indication using a resource determined based on whether one or more of the conflicting sidelink messages are a broadcast sidelink message or a groupcast sidelink message.

  • Patent number: 11882554
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may determine that the first UE is scheduled to transmit in a first slot and a second slot after the first slot. The first UE may then transmit, to a second UE, a first set of data in the first slot based on determining that the first UE is scheduled to transmit in the first slot and the second slot. In some examples, the first UE may determine whether a power estimation capability of the second UE satisfies a threshold. In some cases, the power estimation capability may be based on a correspondence between transmissions in the first slot and expected transmissions in the second slot. Based on the power estimation capability of the second UE, the first UE transmits data in a symbol reserved for automatic gain control at the second slot.

  • Patent number: 11882545
    Abstract: A transmitting user equipment (UE) may perform resource hopping for a periodic sidelink resource reservation by scheduling a plurality of periodic sidelink resources with a first periodicity, the plurality of periodic sidelink resources being shifted at a first offset in a frequency domain. The transmitting UE may reduce persistent collisions of periodic or semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) reservation of the sidelink resources with another UE. The transmitting UE may transmit, to a receiving UE, sidelink control information (SCI) indicating the first offset and the plurality of sidelink transmissions via the plurality of periodic sidelink resources at the first periodicity based on the SCI. The receiving UE may receive, from the transmitting UE, the SCI and the plurality of sidelink transmissions via the plurality of periodic sidelink resources at the first periodicity based on the SCI.

  • Patent number: 11864167
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine that a first quantity of physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) transmissions to be transmitted in a slot fails to satisfy a condition that is based at least in part on a maximum quantity of PSFCH transmissions the UE can concurrently detect. The UE may identify, among the PSFCH transmissions to be transmitted in the slot, a subset of the PSFCH transmissions to be detected. For example, the subset of the PSFCH transmissions to be detected may include a second quantity of the PSFCH transmissions that satisfies the condition. Accordingly, the UE may monitor, during the slot, a PSFCH for the subset of the PSFCH transmissions. Numerous other aspects are provided.
