A first user equipment (UE) transmits, to a second UE, a transmission configuration indicating first timing information for a discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration for sidelink transmission from the first UE. The first UE transmits, to the second UE, a reception configuration indicating second timing information for the DRX configuration for sidelink reception by the first UE. The first UE receives a response from the second UE confirming or rejecting the DRX configuration.
