Abstract: A user equipment (UE) device comprising a processor configured to perform operations is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the operations include comprising establishing a sidelink session with a transmitting UE; configuring the sidelink session to support coordinated resource selection prior to performing the local sensing; performing a local sensing; receiving a PSCCH and a PSSCH from the transmitting UE. The transmitting UE reserves multiple resources. The processor is further configured to perform operations including determining whether a collision happens among the multiple reserved resources; and transmitting the coordination message to the transmitting UE.

Abstract: User equipment includes a receiver, a first antenna and a second antenna coupled to the receiver, and processing circuitry communicatively coupled to the receiver and configured to cause the receiver to receive a first signal via the first antenna and a second signal via the second antenna, adjust the first signal based on a first time offset and a first frequency offset associated with the first signal to generate a first adjusted signal, adjust the second signal based on a second time offset and a second frequency offset associated with the second signal to generate a second adjusted signal, and decode downlink information based on the first adjusted signal and the second adjusted signal.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems to coordinate resource allocation between two UEs for sidelink communication. A receiving UE receiving sidelink communication from a transmitting UE may configure coordination resources used to coordinate sidelink communication between the two UEs. The receiving UE may receive from the transmitting UE data indicating resources reserved and intended to be used by the transmitting UE to transmit sidelink data to the receiving UE. The receiving UE may determine a coordination message used to indicate whether the resources reserved by the transmitting UE are available for use by the receiving UE to receive the sidelink data from the transmitting UE. The receiving UE may determine resources from the coordination resources to be used to carry the coordination message and may transmit the coordination message carried on the selected resources to indicate to the transmitting UE whether to use the reserved resources for the sidelink data.

Abstract: User equipment includes one or more antennas, a receiver coupled to the one or more antennas, and processing circuitry coupled to the receiver and configured to cause the user equipment to receive downlink signals at each communication cycle using a predetermined beam in a beam time slot. Based on processed downlink signals and other relevant information the user equipment may determine a desired beam for the next communication cycle. If the desired beam is the same as the predetermined beam, the user equipment may continue using the predetermined beam at the next communication cycle. If the desired beam is different from the predetermined beam, the user equipment may switch to the desired beam at the next communication cycle. In this way, the user equipment may continue tracking a desired beam to maintain reliable data communications with a communication node.
