  • Publication number: 20240260059
    Abstract: A first user equipment (UE) receives sidelink resource reservation information over sidelink from one or more UEs. The first UE transmits inter-UE coordination information in a sidelink transmission based on a probability threshold being met. A wireless device may receive one or more of a status of a UE, a capability of the UE, or a report. The wireless device may configure the UE with a probability threshold for transmission of inter-UE coordination information in a sidelink transmission.

  • Publication number: 20240260060
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. To improve sidelink reservation schemes. a first user equipment (UE) may indicate its preferences for sidelink resources to a second UE that may select sidelink resources for sidelink messages based on the indicated preferences. For example, the first UE may monitor a first set of sidelink resources for sidelink control information (SCI) to determine which sidelink resources of a second set of sidelink resources are available. Based on the monitoring, the first UE may generate a bitmap that indicates the first UE's preferences for the sidelink resources of the second set and may transmit a coordination message to the second UE that includes the bitmap. The second UE may receive the coordination message and transmit, to the first UE, one or more sidelink messages using one or more sidelink resources of the second set selected based on the indicated preferences.

  • Publication number: 20240251430
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a first sidelink control information (SCI) from a second UE and a second SCI from a third CE, the first SCI may indicate a first set of resources and the second SCI may indicate a second set of resources that at least partially overlap with the first set of resources. The sets of resources may indicate resources reserved by the UEs for sidelink communications. The first UE may measure a first received power associated with the second UE or a second received power associated with the third UE, or both, based on the overlap and may transmit, to the second UE and/or the third UE, an indication of a conflict based on the first received power and/or the second received power satisfying a condition.

  • Patent number: 12047979
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. To improve sidelink reservation schemes, a first user equipment (UE) may receive, from a second UE, a coordination message indicating a set of resources associated with sidelink communications and a preference of the second UE for one or more subsets of the set of resources. The first UE may transmit the sidelink communications using one or more resources of the set of resources based on the preference of the second UE for the one or more subsets of the set of resources. In some examples, the one or more resources may be selected from candidate resources within a resource selection window of the first UE. Additionally, or alternatively, the candidate resources may be based on the preference of the second UE.

  • Patent number: 12041673
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A receiver user equipment (UE) may communicate with a transmitter UE in a sidelink channel to report a congestion index to the transmitter UE and/or additional transmitter UEs, where the transmitter UE(s) may then adjust one or more sidelink operation parameters based on the reported congestion index. In some cases, the transmitter UE may report the congestion index to an upper layer, to other transmitter UEs, to application layers, or a combination thereof. The transmitter UEs 115 and/or application layer may then adjust one or more sidelink transmission operation parameters based on the reported congestion index. For example, the transmitter UEs and/or application layer may adjust threshold values to lessen a number of retransmissions and lessen congestion.

  • Patent number: 12034625
    Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for acknowledgment feedback for groupcast option 1 sidelink communication are disclosed herein. An example method of wireless communication at a receiving user equipment (UE) includes determining whether a data signal associated with a groupcast transmission from a transmitting UE is decodable at the receiving UE and obtaining measurements of the data signal when the data signal is decodable at the receiving UE. The example method also includes determining whether the measurements exceed a threshold and transmitting a first type of feedback to the transmitting UE when the measurements do not exceed the threshold. An example method of wireless communication at a transmitting UE includes receiving, from a receiving UE over a sidelink channel, feedback comprising the first type of feedback when the first UE is determined to monitor for the first type of feedback and a second type of feedback from a plurality of UEs.

  • Publication number: 20240204926
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may reserve a set of sidelink resources for a first sidelink transmission. A detecting UE may identify a sidelink feedback channel collision arising from a first sidelink feedback transmission to a first UE and a second sidelink feedback transmission to a second UE sharing same feedback channel resources. The detecting UE may determine one or more UEs to transmit a sidelink feedback channel collision indication to, and transmit, the collision indication to the one or more UEs. The first UE may identify a collision involving the first sidelink feedback transmission associated with the first sidelink transmission and the second sidelink feedback transmission associated with a second sidelink transmission by the second UE. The first UE may determine to transmit or retransmit the first sidelink transmission based on the sidelink feedback channel collision being identified.
