9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first sidelink resource is in the same sidelink resource pool as the one or more sidelink resources, or the first sidelink resource is in a different sidelink resource pool from the one or more sidelink resources.
10. A method of a first device to perform sidelink transmission or reception, comprising:
sending or reporting a resource set to a second device, wherein the resource set comprises one or more sidelink resources in one or more slots in a same carrier or cell;
scheduling or reserving a third sidelink resource to transmit or deliver a third data packet associated with a third priority, wherein the third sidelink resource is in the one or more slots associated with the sent or reported resource set in the same carrier or cell;
when the third priority is lower than a second priority or a specific priority, performing sidelink reception or monitoring in a slot of the third sidelink resource; and
when the third priority is higher than the second priority or the specific priority, performing sidelink transmission on the third sidelink resource.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the one or more sidelink resources is preferred for a transmission by the second device to at least the first device.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein at least one of:
the second priority is associated with at least one of the one or more sidelink resources or the resource set, or
the specific priority is configured, pre-configured, specified or derived based on the second priority.
13. The method of claim 10 , comprising at least one of:
receiving a sidelink grant from network node, wherein the sidelink grant schedules or indicates at least the third sidelink resource,
receiving at least one of a third sidelink control information or a sidelink grant, from a third device, which reserves or indicates at least the third sidelink resource, or
receiving another resource set from a fourth device, wherein the another resource set at least one of reserves or comprises at least the third sidelink resource.
14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first device acquires information of the third sidelink resource after the first device sends or reports the resource set to the second device.
15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the third sidelink resource is in the same sidelink resource pool as the one or more sidelink resources, or the third sidelink resource is in a different sidelink resource pool from the one or more sidelink resources.
