A communication device that enables sensing of efficient resources in inter device communication such as V2X communication, including a control unit configured to allocate a resource area in which a resource is selectable by a terminal device that executes inter-device communication, and to provide information regarding a range of sensing of the resource area to the terminal device.

A method for performing wireless communication by a first apparatus and an apparatus for supporting same are provided. The method may comprise the steps of: transmitting, to a second apparatus via a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH), second sidelink control information (SCI) and first SCI for scheduling of a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH); and transmitting, to the second apparatus via the PSSCH, a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) and the second SCI including channel state information (CSI) request information indicating that a first CSI report is requested. Within a time duration associated with the first CSI report, the first apparatus is not allowed to transmit, to the second apparatus, CSI request information indicating that a second CSI report is requested.

A power save method and a communication apparatus that are applied to multi-link communication. A multi-link device sends a mode switching frame to another device to notify the other device that the multi-link device is to switch a communication mode, for example, switch from a multi-link conventional communication mode to a multi-link power save communication mode, or switch from the multi-link power save communication mode to the multi-link conventional communication mode. The multi-link conventional communication mode includes a first configuration. The multi-link power save communication mode includes the first configuration and a second configuration. A quantity of links used for transmission under the first configuration is greater than a quantity of links used for transmission under the second configuration. A balance is provided between a high rate and low power consumption.

One or more wireless stations may operate to configure direct communication with neighboring mobile stations, e.g., direct communication between the wireless stations without utilizing an intermediate access point. A mechanism for wireless stations to learn preferred channels of neighboring wireless stations and to schedule channel sequences within a time period based on the learned channels may include advertisement of preferred channels and adaptation of channel sequences, based on the preferred channels, to maximize bandwidth utilization.

Methods and apparatuses for facilitating notification of an impending TDLS transmission in a wireless local area network. The apparatuses include a non-access point (AP) multi-link device (MLD) comprising stations (STAs) and a processor. Each STA comprises a transceiver configured to transceive signals on multi-link operation (MLO) links with APs of an AP MLD and on tunneled direct link setup (TDLS) direct links between the STAs and peer STAs of a second non-AP MLD, and to transmit, to the AP MLD on one of the MLO links, a TDLS transmission notification message. The processor is configured to determine that a TDLS transmission is impending over one of the TDLS direct links from one of the STAs that forms a non-simultaneous transmit/receive (NSTR) link pair with another STA, and to generate the TDLS transmission notification message, which includes an indication that the TDLS transmission is impending.

A method of performing sensing for device-to-device (D2D) communication in a wireless communication system may include receiving, by a first user equipment (UE), sidelink control information (SCI) in slot m; determining a first exclusion candidate based on a reception power measurement value of a data channel corresponding to the SCI; determining slot m+Gap in which the same data as in the slot m is transmitted; determining a second exclusion candidate based on the slot m+Gap; excluding a resource in which the first and second exclusion candidates and a candidate to be sensed overlap from a resource to be sensed; and performing sensing on the resource to be sensed.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may establish a sidelink connection with a second UE, where the sidelink connection is associated with a plurality of flows. The first UE may determine, based on monitoring each flow of the plurality of flows, a radio link status of the sidelink connection. The first UE may transmit, based on the determining, a non-access stratum layer message to the second UE based at least on the radio link status of the sidelink connection.

This disclosure relates to methods and devices for mitigating overheating in a user equipment device (UE). The UE is configured to communicate over each of LTE and 5G NR and may be configured to communicate through 5G NR over each of a Sub-6GHz and a millimeter Wave (mmW) frequency band. The UE is configured to establish an ENDC connection with an enB and one or more gNBs. The UE implements intelligent transmission modification and cell measurement adjustments to mitigate overheating and reduce battery drain.

Suggested is a novel condition for a media access control (MAC) entity in user equipment (UE) reselecting a sidelink resource in a wireless communication system. The MAC entity of the UE can reselect a sidelink resource when a configured sidelink grant does not satisfy a latency requirement according to ProSe per-packet priority (PPPP). More particularly, configuration is performed by an upper layer so that the MAC entity transmits on the basis of sensing using a resource pool; the MAC entity selects generation of a configured sidelink grant corresponding to transmission of a plurality of MAC protocol data units (PDU); and when data is available in a sidelink traffic channel (STCH) and the configured sidelink grant does not satisfy the latency requirement according to the PPPP, a sidelink resource is reselected.
