Abstract

A method and apparatus for indicating a sidelink coordinated resource, a storage medium, and a terminal are provided. The method includes: receiving a resource coordination request from at least one requesting User Equipment (UE); determining a recommended/non-recommended resource based on the resource coordination request; and transmitting information of the recommended/non-recommended resource to the at least one requesting UE, wherein the information of the recommended/non-recommended resource is carried by Sidelink Control Information (SCI).

Claims (35)

1 . A method for indicating a sidelink coordinated resource, comprising:

receiving a resource coordination request from a requesting User Equipment (UE), wherein the resource coordination request is used to request a recommended resource or a non-recommended resource;

determining a resource based on the resource coordination request; and

transmitting information of the resource to the requesting UE;

wherein the information of the resource is carried by Sidelink Control Information (SCI);

the SCI comprises time domain position and frequency domain position of the resource; and

the SCI comprises an identification portion which indicates that the resource is the recommended resource or the non-recommended resource.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the resource is located in a time domain window which is a period of time obtained by dividing time domain positions of available resources in a preset resource pool.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein frequency domain granularity indicated by the SCI is an integer multiple of a subchannel, and the subchannel is frequency domain granularity of available resources and obtained by high-layer signaling dividing an available channel according to frequency.

4 . The method according to claim 3 , wherein a number of bits in a frequency domain indication field of the SCI is determined by the frequency domain granularity and a preset resource pool.

5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the SCI carries an identity of the requesting UE.

6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the SCI further comprises an indication portion which carries the information of the resource.

7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the identification portion comprises several bits preset in the SCI which are set to a preset value.

8 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein in response to decoding to obtain the preset value at these bits, the requesting UE determines that the SCI carries Resource Assistance Information (RAI).

9 . A non-transitory storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising computer instructions, which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

receive a resource coordination request from a requesting User Equipment (UE), wherein the resource coordination request is used to request a recommended resource or a non-recommended resource;

determine a resource based on the resource coordination request; and

transmit information of the resource to the requesting UE;

wherein the information of the resource is carried by Sidelink Control Information (SCI);

the SCI comprises time domain position and frequency domain position of the resource; and

the SCI comprises an identification portion which indicates that the resource is the recommended resource or the non-recommended resource.

10 . A terminal comprising a memory and a processor, wherein the memory stores one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising computer instructions, which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:

receive a resource coordination request from a requesting User Equipment (UE), wherein the resource coordination request is used to request a recommended resource or a non-recommended resource;

determine a resource based on the resource coordination request; and

transmit information of the resource to the requesting UE;

wherein the information of the resource is carried by Sidelink Control Information (SCI);

the SCI comprises time domain position and frequency domain position of the resource; and

the SCI comprises an identification portion which indicates that the resource is the recommended resource or the non-recommended resource.

11 . The terminal according to claim 10 , wherein the resource is located in a time domain window which is a period of time obtained by dividing time domain positions of available resources in a preset resource pool.

12 . The terminal according to claim 10 , wherein frequency domain granularity indicated by the SCI is an integer multiple of a subchannel, and the subchannel is frequency domain granularity of available resources and obtained by high-layer signaling dividing an available channel according to frequency.

13 . The terminal according to claim 12 , wherein a number of bits in a frequency domain indication field of the SCI is determined by the frequency domain granularity and a preset resource pool.

14 . The terminal according to claim 10 , wherein the SCI carries an identity of the requesting UE.

15 . The terminal according to claim 10 , wherein the SCI further comprises an indication portion which carries the information of the resource.

16 . The terminal according to claim 10 , wherein the identification portion comprises several bits preset in the SCI which are set to a preset value.

17 . The terminal according to claim 16 , wherein in response to decoding to obtain the preset value at these bits, the requesting UE determines that the SCI carries Resource Assistance Information (RAI).
