Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some examples, a wireless communications system may support short reference signals for sidelink communication. A transmitting user equipment (UE) and a receiving UE may receive, from a base station, configuration signaling that indicates a set of sidelink resources that includes a set of slots within a subcarrier. A subset of the slots may include a first set of symbols allocated to a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) and a second set of symbols allocated to a reference signal, where the first set of symbols comes before the second set of symbols in a time domain. The transmitting UE may transmit, to the receiving UE, a reference signal over the second set of symbols and the receiving UE may utilize the reference signal to decode data message received from the transmitting UE.

The multi-SIM UE may select a first subset of component carriers from the plurality of component carriers based at least in part on a component carrier prioritization. The multi-SIM UE may identify an amount of memory available to a second SIM. The multi-SIM UE may tune away, based at least in part on the amount of memory available to the second SIM, from a second subset of component carriers The first subset of component carriers may be different from the second subset of component carriers. Numerous other aspects are described.

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, for measurement and reporting procedures associated with a sidelink positioning reference signal (SL-PRS). In one aspect, a first user equipment (UE), which may function as a sidelink anchor node, may transmit an SL-PRS to a second UE in accordance with a slot format or structure that is dedicated for SL-PRS transmissions. The first UE may select resources for the transmission of the SL-PRS via sensing and exclusion or using a set of resources that are dedicated for SL-PRS transmissions. The second UE may receive the SL-PRS and use the SL-PRS to acquire positioning information, in accordance with an observed time difference of arrival (OTDOA)-based positioning method, or may transmit a second SL-PRS to the first UE to facilitate acquisition of positioning information at the first UE, in accordance with a round-trip-time (RTT)-based positioning method.

A method of operating a communication device includes: sweeping a plurality of first reception beams; measuring reference signals, received from another communication device, based on the plurality of first reception beams; estimating a downlink channel gain based on the measured reference signals and reception array response information corresponding to reception antenna characteristics of the communication device; generating a downlink channel related matrix based on the downlink channel gain and the reception array response information; determining a second reception beam based on the downlink channel related matrix; determining a transmission beam based on at least one of the downlink channel gain, the downlink channel related matrix, and the second reception beam; and performing communication with the other communication device using the second reception beam and the transmission beam.
