A resource determining method and device are provided. The method may be performed by a terminal device, including: determining a remaining frequency domain resource in a resource pool according to a sub-channel size; and using the remaining frequency domain resource as a first sub-channel independently, or containing the remaining frequency domain resource in the resource pool within a second sub-channel.

A user equipment and a method of resource allocation of the same are provided. The method includes performing monitoring on slots of a resource pool, excluding one or more sidelink resources from a candidate resource set in the resource pool, and selecting one or more sidelink resources using a timing based selection from the remaining candidate resource set or a resource selection window in the resource pool. This reduces risk of a pre-selected resource being taken-over or reserved by others and/or allows flexibility in a sidelink control information (SCI) signaling to be able to provide early indication/reservation of future sidelink resources, and subsequently improves overall system performance.

A sidelink resource reselection method and apparatus. The method includes performing resource re-evaluation and/or pre-emption check on sidelink resources initially selected for performing a plurality of times of transmission of a transport block, and reselecting at least one sidelink resource from a sidelink resource set in a case where one or more sidelink resources are not in a reselection candidate resource set, wherein a currently reselected sidelink resource set is determined according to time frequency sources of the initially selected sidelink resources.

A communication device that supports D2D (Device-to-Device) communication includes a processor configured to determine a sensing section for performing sensing based on a position of a first slot in a candidate selection slot set and information regarding a transmission of an aperiodic traffic, the sensing section being formed by a plurality of consecutive slots in a sensing window, the candidate selection slot set including a slot that is configured to transmit a D2D signal; and a sensing unit configured to perform sensing in the sensing section determined by the processor. The processor determines a resource for transmitting the D2D signal in the candidate selection slot set based on a result of the sensing by the sensing unit.

A random access method and apparatus and resource configuration method and apparatus. The random access apparatus includes: a third receiving unit configured to, on a physical random access channel resource, receive a random access preamble transmitted by a terminal equipment; wherein the random access preamble is used to indicate that the terminal equipment has sidelink data to be transmitted, and/or the physical random access channel resource is used to indicate that the terminal equipment has sidelink data to be transmitted; and a second transmitting unit configured to transmit a random access response to the terminal equipment. By indicating in the random access procedure to the network device that the terminal equipment has a sidelink MAC CE to be transmitted, it may be avoided that the network device does not learn that the terminal equipment has a sidelink MAC CE to be transmitted, so that the network device allocates resources for the sidelink, and resource consumption may be lowered.

Methods and apparatuses for sidelink (SL) resource allocation in unlicensed spectrum in a wireless communication system. A method of operating a user equipment (UE) includes performing sensing on a SL interface; determining, based on the sensing, a set of available SL resources within a SL resource pool; and selecting a slot within the SL resource pool. The method further includes performing a listen-before-talk (LBT) channel access procedure before the slot; determining a presence of available SL resources from the set of available SL resources within the slot; and transmitting, based on the LBT channel access procedure being successful and the presence being determined, in an available SL resource from the available SL resources within the slot.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication at a first user equipment (UE) are described. A UE may receive a control signal indicating a set of durations. A duration of the set of durations may be scheduled for uplink resources and additional resources including downlink resources, flexible resources, or both. The UE may further receive an indication of a slot format configuration permitting sidelink communications on the uplink resources during the duration scheduled for the uplink resources and the additional resources. Upon identifying that sidelink communications are permitted, the UE may transmit a sidelink transmission using the uplink resources and during the duration.

Wireless communications systems and methods related to communicating control information are provided. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE) may include performing a clear channel assessment (CCA), transmitting, to a first UE based on the CCA being successful, a first transport block (TB) via a first sub-PSSCH associated with a first sub-slot, and transmitting, to at least one of the first UE or a second UE, a second TB via a PSSCH associated with a slot.

A method for data sharing between a transmitter vehicle and a receiver vehicle includes obtaining sensor data, encoding the sensor data into structured data having a set of features and a set of channels, generating a channel attention map based on inter-channel relationships of the set of features, generating weights corresponding to channels of the channel attention map, selecting one or more channels among the set of channels based on the weights corresponding to the set of channels, and transmitting the selected channels to the receiver vehicle.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may determine resource selection priority levels associated with available resources for sidelink signaling in an unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band, the resources selection priority levels may be determined based on resource reservation information of the available resources, a time domain location of the available resources, or both. For example, a first resource of the available resources may be associated with a higher priority than a second resource of the available resources in resource selection. The UE may select one or more resources for the sidelink signaling from the available resources based on the resource selection priority levels associated with the available resources. The UE may transmit the sidelink signaling on the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band using the one or more selected resources.
