    Abstract: An apparatus may determine a cyclic prefix (CP) length for a signal for a communication link based on a dynamic indication. The CP length may be determined from a plurality of CP lengths. The apparatus may communicate the signal using the determined CP length. Determining the CP length may be further based on at least one of a modulation and coding scheme, a subcarrier spacing, a service type, a communication link direction, a rank number, a type or a capability of the node, or a number of nodes scheduled in the same transmit time interval. Determining the CP length may include determining a first CP length for a first symbol of a plurality of symbols in the TTI, and determining a second CP length, different than the first CP length, for a second symbol of the plurality of symbols in the TTI. Various additional and alternative aspects are described herein.

    Abstract: An apparatus may receive, from a scheduling entity, sidelink grant information in a downlink control channel. After receiving the grant information in the downlink control channel, the apparatus may transmit a request-to-send (RTS) signal comprising an indication of a requested duration of time to reserve a sidelink channel for sidelink data. If the sidelink channel is available for the requested duration of time, the apparatus may receive a clear-to-send (CTS) signal configured to indicate an availability of the sidelink channel for the requested duration of time. Subsequently, the apparatus may communicate, with another apparatus different from the scheduling entity, the sidelink data using the sidelink channel during the requested duration of time. Afterwards, the apparatus may communicate acknowledgment information corresponding to the communication of the sidelink signal with the other apparatus. Various additional and alternative aspects are described herein.

    Abstract: Techniques are described for wireless communication. An exemplary method includes receiving, at a first device, a pre-scheduling message for a downlink transmission from a second device; transmitting a scheduling message to the second device in response to receiving the pre-scheduling message; and receiving the downlink transmission in accordance with the at least one downlink transmission parameter of the scheduling message. The scheduling message may include at least one downlink transmission parameter. Another exemplary method includes transmitting, to a first device, a pre-scheduling message for a downlink transmission; receiving, from the first device, a scheduling message comprising at least one downlink transmission parameter; and transmitting the downlink transmission to the first device in accordance with the at least one downlink transmission parameter of the scheduling message.
