    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some wireless communications systems, a user equipment (UE) may receive control signaling indicating a configuration for performing a sidelink discontinuous reception procedure, where the configuration indicates a duration of a timer associated with an active duration for the first UE to receive sidelink retransmissions during the sidelink discontinuous reception procedure. The UE may then receive a first sidelink communication including data and may, in some cases, transmit feedback requesting a retransmission of the data. The UE may then receive second sidelink communication including the retransmitted data. Prior to receiving the second sidelink communication including the retransmitted data, the UE may initiate the timer according to the configuration. Thus, the UE may be in an active mode to receive the second sidelink communication.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support configured reception with sidelink control information (SCI) repetition over a sidelink. In aspects, a receiving user equipment (UE) may be configured to conduct combined reception/decoding of SCI repetitions (received from a transmitting UE over a sidelink) over multiple time-frequency slots at pre-defined occasions (e.g., occasions configured by a base station) to decode a sidelink transmission. In aspects, a receiving UE may receive from a transmitting UE over a sidelink, a sidelink transmission during a reception occasion that includes a plurality of reception opportunities for the receiving UE. Each reception opportunity of the plurality of reception opportunities includes a repetition of an SCI. The receiving UE decodes the SCI by combining the repetitions of the SCI received in one or more reception opportunities, and decodes a data transmission (e.g., a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) transmission) using the decoded SCI.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications by a transmitter user equipment (UE). The method may include receiving (e.g., from a network entity) a configuration of a first resource pool associated with a second resource pool. The first resource pool includes physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) resources for hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) responses for physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) transmissions in the second resource pool. The method further includes transmitting (e.g., to a receiver UE) a PSSCH on a resource in the second resource pool and a request for a HARQ response for the PSSCH from a PSFCH resource in the first resource pool. The method further includes receiving (e.g., from the receiver UE) the HARQ response over the PSFCH resource (e.g., in response to the PSSCH).

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Aspects of the present disclosure provide for a user equipment (UE) performing contention-based access to utilize historical pathloss measurements to identify available resources for beamformed sidelink communications. The historical pathloss measurements may be obtained by the UE, by one or more other UEs, or both, where the UE may combine its own historical pathloss measurements with historical pathloss measurements obtained at the one or more other UEs. Such historical pathloss measurements may allow the UE to determine if one or more beam combinations associated with the resources may cause unacceptable interference (e.g., interference satisfying a threshold) while reducing signaling overhead associated with exchanges of inter-UE coordination messages. Accordingly, the UE may determine to yield transmissions over one or more resources or to yield reception to allow other UEs to utilize the one or more resources.
