A terminal includes a receiver configured to receive a response related to retransmission control from another terminal, via a first channel used for transmitting and receiving the response related to retransmission control; a controller configured to receive, from a base station, information representing a first offset in time domain from the first channel to a second channel, the second channel being used for transmitting the received response related to retransmission control to the base station; and a transmitter configured to transmit the received response related to retransmission control to the base station, via the second channel, wherein the controller determines a position of the second channel in time domain based on: the first offset; and a second offset that is applied to a position of the first channel in time domain, and that is used to determine a starting point of the first offset.

A transmission or reception configuration method includes: executing, according to first transmission or reception configuration information, a target behavior in a time resource configured by the first transmission or reception configuration information. The first transmission or reception configuration information is at least one set of transmission or reception configuration information in N sets of transmission or reception configuration information.

A method of determining a mode of operation for a wireless terminal comprises determining a parameter indicating Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request, HARQ, re-transmissions in communications with the wireless terminal. The method further comprises determining a full duplex or half duplex mode of operation based on the parameter of HARQ re-transmissions.

A computer-readable storage medium that stores instructions for execution by one or more processors of a user equipment (UE). configure the UE for NR communication. The instructions cause the UE to decode sidelink control information (SCI). The SCI includes scheduling information and priority information. The scheduling information indicates time resource assignment and frequency resource assignment for sidelink data communications using a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH). The instructions further cause the UE to detect that a transmission (Tx) of a first set of physical sidelink feedback channels (PSFCHs) would overlap in time with a reception (Rx) of a second set of PSFCHs. The first and second sets of PSFCHs include sidelink feedback control information for the sidelink data communications. The instructions further cause transmission of at least one PSFCH from the first set of PSFCHs or the second set of PSFCHs based on the priority information.

A communication method and device for reducing power consumption of receive user equipment (RX UE) are provided. The method includes: when there is no reserved resource used to retransmit first transmission on a sidelink, a first communication device and/or a second communication device starts a first timer, and/or stops a second timer; or when there is a reserved resource used to retransmit first transmission on a sidelink, a first communication device and a second communication device stop a second timer. In this way, the first communication device and the second communication device can jointly control, by using the first timer and the second timer, the first communication device to receive data on the sidelink, so that the first communication device may not keep monitoring SCI that is associated with a HARQ process corresponding to the first transmission.

A sidelink transmission method and apparatus. The method includes: receiving sidelink control information by a terminal equipment at a physical layer (PHY), the sidelink control information being used to trigger report of sidelink channel state information; generating sidelink channel state information by the terminal equipment at the physical layer; and transmitting the sidelink control information and the sidelink channel state information by the terminal equipment from the physical layer to a media access control (MAC) layer. Hence, a valid CSI measurement result may be transmitted, and waste of sidelink resources may be avoided at the same time.

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.

A method for a first device to perform wireless communication and a device supporting same. The method may include: receiving, from the base station through a second PDCCH, a second DCI including information related to a second SL resource and information related to a second PUCCH resource; transmitting a first physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) based on the first SL resource; and transmitting, to the base station through the second PUCCH resource, first hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback information related to the first PSSCH and second HARQ feedback information related to the second PSSCH, based on a slot including the first PUCCH resource being same as a slot including the second PUCCH resource, wherein the second DCI is a last DCI among a plurality of DCIs including information related to the slot for PUCCH transmission.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a second UE, an initial transmission of a transport block via a sidelink unlicensed band. The UE may receive, from the second UE, a negative acknowledgement (NACK) based at least in part on the initial transmission of the transport block. The UE may transmit, to the second UE and based at least in part on the NACK and a retransmission reservation, a retransmission of the transport block via the sidelink unlicensed band in a retransmission occasion of a plurality of retransmission occasions associated with the retransmission reservation. Numerous other aspects are described.

A method and apparatus for sending uplink control information by a multi-mode wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) capable of operating on multiple component carriers of a plurality of radio access technologies (RATs) for multi-RAT operation are disclosed. The WTRU may generate uplink control information (UCI) pertaining to a first RAT and a second RAT, wherein the UCI may include a first plurality of hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgements (HARQ-ACKs) pertaining to a plurality of downlink (DL) transmissions of the first RAT and a second plurality of HARQ-ACKs pertaining to a plurality of DL transmissions of the second RAT. The WTRU may multiplex at least part of the generated UCI pertaining to the first RAT and at least part of the generated UCI pertaining to the second RAT onto a physical channel on a component carrier of the second RAT.
