Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, on an access link from a base station, a first downlink control information (DCI) that schedules a first communication on a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) and a second DCI that schedules a second communication on the PSSCH. The first communication and the second communication may be scheduled according to a rule for overlapping or ordering communications on the PSSCH that are associated with one or more hybrid automatic repeat request identifiers. The UE may transmit the first communication and the second communication as scheduled. Numerous other aspects are described.

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: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a transmitter user equipment (UE) may transmit a stage one sidelink control information (SCI) message to multiple receiver UEs. In some aspects, the stage one SCI message may indicate respective resource reservations for multiple sidelink transmissions to the multiple receiver UEs. The transmitter UE may transmit a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) to a subset of the multiple receiver UEs based at least in part on a configured grant associated with the subset of the multiple receiver UEs and the respective resource reservations indicated in the stage one SCI message.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may perform a transmission detection procedure on each base station before combining control information. The UE may use demodulation reference signals (DMRS) as a detection mechanism. If the UE detects a DMRS from a base station, the UE may determine that a control resource set associated with the base station is valid for combining. If the UE does not detect DMRS from the base station, the UE may refrain from combining control information from the base station. In another example, base stations that pass a listen-before-talk (LBT) pr6ocedure may transmit a preamble before transmitting control information. A preamble may carry a preamble sequence associated with a specific control resource set. The UE may identify a preamble sequence and determine that the corresponding control resource set is valid for control information combining.

Abstract: Channel occupancy time (COT) aware sensing and resource selection for new radio-unlicensed (NR-U) sidelink operations is disclosed. A first sidelink user equipment (UE) determines a sensing window or resource selection window (RSW) based on a projected listen-before-talk (LBT) completion time. The UE may sense for a subset of sideline resources within the RSW and COT-SI from a neighboring sidelink UE including identification of a COT initiated by the neighboring UE and one or more parameters associated with the COT. The UE may identify in-COT resources of located within the COT and out-COT resources located outside of the COT and then randomly select a set of transmission resources from the in-COT and out-COT resources. The UE may then transmit to a second UE using the set of transmission resources.

Abstract: In order to conserve power resources for low complexity UEs, a base station may apparatus dynamically adjust a bandwidth configuration of a UE or the base station and communicates with the UE according to the dynamically adjusted bandwidth configuration. The communication may be narrowband communication. A UE may apparatus dynamically adjust a bandwidth configuration of the UE and communicates with a base station based on the dynamically adjusted bandwidth configuration. The dynamically adjusted bandwidth configuration may correspond to a function performed by the UE.

Abstract: Sub-resource pools for transmission of new radio (NR) sidelink (NR SL) over unlicensed bands is disclosed. A user equipment (UE) capable for sidelink communications may receive a sidelink configuration message from a serving base station that includes identification of a plurality of channel access types associated with a plurality of sub-resource pools for autonomous sidelink access of a shared communication channel. The UE may obtain information for a sidelink transmission over a transmission resource pool allocated for the autonomous sidelink access and determine the plurality of sub-resource pools from available resources within the transmission resource pool according to a channel access type of each resource, wherein each sub-resource pool includes a subset of resources associated with a corresponding channel access type. The UE may then select a sub-resource pool for sidelink transmission and transmit the information on a transmission resource selected from the sub-resource pool.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques provide for a base station transmitting to a user equipment (UE) a partial bandwidth configuration for uplink transmissions, where the partial bandwidth configuration may indicate a channel interlace and a portion of a channel bandwidth, for example, for autonomous uplink (AUL) transmissions. The base station may also transmit to the UE an AUL configuration including a group identifier. The UE may determine a starting offset with respect to an AUL subframe for a partial bandwidth transmission based on the group identifier. In some cases, different UEs may be grouped into groups of UEs allocated non-overlapping resources, and UEs allocated overlapping resources may have different starting offsets to begin transmitting. According to the determined starting offset, the UE may perform the partial bandwidth transmission over the channel interlace and the portion of the channel bandwidth.
