a previous measurement of interference associated with the one or more first component carriers, and

capabilities of the first UE for the sidelink communication;

generating at least one second message allocating the one or more first component carriers or one or more second component carriers for the sidelink communication; and

transmitting the at least one second message to the first UE.

20. The method of claim 14 , wherein the at least one second message allocating the one or more first component carriers or the one or more second component carriers further configures one or more sidelink bandwidth parts (BWPs) of each of the one or more first component carriers or the one or more second component carriers.

21. The method of claim 14 , wherein the one or more first component carriers or the one or more second component carriers comprise a plurality of component carriers, at least two component carriers of the plurality of component carriers being part of a component carrier group sharing one or more communication configuration constraints.
