A method in a network node is disclosed. The method comprises allocating a pool of radio resources for vehicle-to-other (V2x) communication by a plurality of wireless devices, and dividing the allocated pool of radio resources for V2x communication into a plurality of orthogonal sets of radio resources, each set of radio resources having an associated set identifier comprising one of a plurality of positive integers. The method further comprises assigning one or more radio resource sets to each wireless device among the plurality of wireless devices based at least in part on a radio-compatibility characteristic, and communicating to each wireless device the assigned set of radio resources to use.
