  • Publication number: 20230379967
    Abstract: A first UE may configure, during a COT, an initial transmission and one or more subsequent transmissions that follow the initial transmission. The one or more subsequent transmissions are configured to prevent a release of the COT. Based on the configuration, the first UE may transmit the initial transmission including an indication of the COT and a time period for transmitting the one or more subsequent transmissions. The first UE may subsequently transmit the one or more subsequent transmissions during the indicated time period. A second UE may receive the indication of the COT and the time period where the release of the COT is prevented. The second UE may prepare a packet for transmission during the time period where the release of the COT is prevented and transmit the packet during the COT following the time period where the release of the COT is prevented.

  • Patent number: 11825464
    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: 11825543
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may establish a unicast connection over a sidelink communications with a second UE. To establish the unicast connection over the sidelink, the first UE may transmit a request message (e.g., a first message) to the second UE, and the second UE may transmit a response message (e.g., a second message) to the first UE accepting the request. The unicast connection over the sidelink may then be established between the first UE and the second UE, and user data may then be transmitted over the sidelink on the established unicast connection. Additionally, the first UE may transmit a connection complete message (e.g., a third message) to the second UE indicating that the unicast connection has been established. The request message, the response message, and the connection complete message may be radio resource control (RRC) messages.

  • Publication number: 20230362846
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a time offset for synchronization signal resources for synchronization signals associated with a first radio access technology (RAT). The UE may determine the synchronization signal resources and a synchronization periodicity based on the indication and a penetration ratio of UEs associated with the first RAT. The UE may selectively transmit the synchronization signals on the synchronization signal resources and according to the synchronization periodicity. Additionally, or alternatively, the UE may determine that other synchronization signal resources are allocated for a second RAT and may select resources for communications associated with the first RAT based on determining that the other synchronization signal resources are allocated. The UE may perform communications associated with the first RAT based on selecting the resources.

  • Publication number: 20230345454
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. User equipments (UEs) may transmit sidelink control information (SCI) messages indicating reservations for upcoming sidelink transmissions in the same reserved resource. One of the UEs or another UE may detect a collision in the reserved resource based on the SCI messages. A feedback channel resource for indicating the collision may be calculated based on a time domain parameter of a resource mapping between time domain resources of the sidelink feedback channel and time domain resources of the reserved resource or a frequency domain parameter of a resource mapping between frequency domain resources of the sidelink feedback channel and frequency domain resources of the SCI message. A UE may transmit a collision indication in the calculated feedback channel resource. The UEs that transmitted the SCI messages may monitor the calculated feedback channel resource for a collision indication for the reserved resource.

  • Publication number: 20230345519
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may identify feedback indications and collision indications to transmit to a second UE. A feedback indication may indicate whether sidelink data was received and decoded successfully by the first UE, and a collision indication may indicate an expected conflict between the second UE and a third UE. In one aspect, the first UE may generate a feedback message including both feedback indications and collision indications, and the first UE may prioritize the feedback message based on the feedback indications, the collision indications, or both. In another aspect, the first UE may avoid including collision indications in a same feedback message as feedback indications.
