Abstract

Methods and apparatuses for transmitting and receiving sidelink information. The method includes: determining a priority/priorities of second data information and/or feedback information by a second device, allocating power for the second data information and/or the feedback information according to the priority/priorities; and/or scrambling and/or indicating the second data information and/or the feedback information by the second device by using an identifier. Hence, supporting multiple unicast sessions or groupcast sessions by the same device may be achieved.

Claims (10)

1. An apparatus for transmitting sidelink information, configured in a second device, comprising:

a memory that stores a plurality of instructions; and

processor circuitry coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to:

receive first sidelink data information and/or a reference signal transmitted by at least one first device;

indicate sidelink feedback information for the first sidelink data information and/or reference signal by using an identifier; and

transmit to the at least one first device the indicated sidelink feedback information,

wherein the identifier comprises an identifier of the first device and an identifier of the second device, and wherein the processor circuitry is configured to, according to the identifier of the first device and the identifier of the second device, determine a cyclic shift used by the sidelink feedback information.

2. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the identifier further comprises at least one of the following: a session identifier, a sidelink identifier, a device group identifier.

3. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor circuitry is configured to contain at least a part of the identifier in payloads/a payload of the sidelink feedback information.

4. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor circuitry is further configured to add cyclic redundancy check into the sidelink feedback information using RM coding or channel coding of a small block length, and/or, add cyclic redundancy check into the sidelink feedback information less than or equal to 2 bits.
