Various examples and schemes pertaining to partial sensing enhancement for sidelink (SL) resource allocation in New Radio (NR) vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications are described. A user equipment (UE) performs one-shot sensing and periodic sensing prior to a transmission. The UE selects a resource based on results of the one-shot sensing and the period sensing. Then, the UE performs the transmission using the selected resource in a SL communication in a V2X network.
