Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus allocates K blocks of subframes for WAN and peer-to-peer communications in a discovery period T and remaining subframes in the discovery period T for WAN communications and allocates a first set of subframes for peer discovery and a second set of subframes for the WAN communications in each block of the K blocks.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus receives a configuration indicating multicast broadcast single frequency network (MBSFN) subframes within a radio frame. The configuration indicates a number of symbols of an MBSFN subframe for receiving a wide area network (WAN) control signal and remaining symbols of the MBSFN subframe dedicated for peer-to-peer communication. The apparatus communicates with a peer via the symbols dedicated for peer-to-peer communication. Alternatively, the apparatus receives a configuration indicating a portion at a beginning and/or end of a guard period of a special time division duplex (TDD) subframe. The portion is reserved for an uplink timing advance and/or switching from transmission to reception and/or reception to transmission. The configuration also indicates a remaining portion of the guard period of the special TDD subframe for peer-to-peer communication. The apparatus communicates with a peer via the remaining portion.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product are provided in which a signal is received on a resource, a signal quality of the signal is determined, a signal energy of the signal is determined, and the resource is jammed based on the signal quality and the signal energy by transmitting a signal on the resource.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for making handoff decisions in an access terminal which can support both best effort and QoS traffic, e.g., when operating in a best effort and QoS mode of operation, respectively, are described. The access terminal receives an indicator indicating the fraction of communications resources not utilized for QoS service and information indicating a number of best effort users being supported by the attachment point. During Qos mode operation, connections to attachment points which can support the access terminal's minimal QoS requirements are identified and then from among the identified set, the attachment point which can provide a connect supporting the most best effort traffic from the access terminal is selected. In best effort mode operation the access terminal selects the attachment point connection which will provide the greatest amount of throughput to the access terminal for best effort traffic.
Abstract:
Apparatus, methods, andcomputer-readable media for facilitating a SL communicationfor mode 2 resource allocationare disclosed herein. An example method includes configuring aninter-UE coordinationmessage associatedwithsidelink communicationwitha secondUE, the inter-UE coordinationmessage indicating one or more resources for the sidelink communication. The example method further includes transmitting, to the second UE, the inter-UE coordinationmessage via a MAC-CE, the MAC-CE being associated witha PSSCH. The example method further includes transmitting, to the secondUE, or receiving, fromthe second UE, the sidelink communicationvia a first resource of the one or more resources.
Abstract:
Improved communications, including indication of channel occupancy time-structure information (COT-SI) for NR-U sidelink (NR-U SL) operations is disclosed. A UE may establish a current channel occupancy time (COT) on a shared communication spectrum for UE transmissions in response to a successful listen before talk (LBT) procedure. The UE may then generates a COT structure information (COT-SI) message including at least a remaining duration of the current COT and a set of time and frequency resources of the current COT. The COT-SI message may be transmitted by the UE to one or more neighboring UEs via sidelink transmission. Once the COT-SI message is sent, the UE transmits the UE transmission within the set of time and frequency resource of the current COT.
Abstract:
Aspects presented herein may enable a UE to perform an LBT procedure (e.g., CCA, eCCA procedure) based on multiple ED thresholds. In one aspect, an apparatus performs an ED measurement for a sidelink channel over a first period of time and a second period of time of an LBT procedure. The apparatus applies a first ED threshold during the first period of time of the LBT procedure. The apparatus applies a second ED threshold during the second period of time of the LBT procedure. The apparatus transmits on the sidelink channel based on the LBT procedure.
Abstract:
In an aspect, the present disclosure includes a method and apparatus for sidelink communications for identifying at least one slot in a measurement window as a channel busy ratio (CBR) relevant slot, calculating a CBR based on at least a measurement in at least the CBR relevant slot, and transmitting, or refraining from transmitting, a sidelink transmission based at least on the CBR.
Abstract:
Wireless communications systems and methods related to channel occupancy time (COT) sharing for sidelink communications are provided. A first user equipment (UE) receives, from a second UE, a first sidelink transmission during a first channel occupancy time (COT), where the first COT is associated with the second UE. The first UE determines whether the second UE is one of two or more UEs intended to receive a second sidelink transmission. The first UE transmits, to the two or more UEs, the second sidelink transmission during a portion of the first COT based on COT sharing. The COT sharing is in response to determining the second UE is one of the two or more UEs intended to receive the second sidelink transmission.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for a first device to perform data validation with one or more other devices. For example, a device may generate data at components associated with the device. To validate at least a portion of the data, the device may establish a connection with other devices. In some examples, the device may determine a portion of the data to validate based on a capability of the other devices to generate data that corresponds to the portion of data. The device may exchange data with the other devices and determine a validity of data generated at the device in response.
