Abstract

The present application provides a method and device in nodes for wireless communications. A first node determines a target time-frequency resource group based on a target resource selection scheme in multiple resource pools, the target resource selection scheme is one of a first resource selection scheme or a second resource selection scheme, each of the multiple resource pools is a first-type resource pool, or each of the multiple resource pools is a second-type resource pool; transmits a first-type target signal on at least one time-frequency resource block in the target time-frequency resource group; the target resource selection scheme is related to whether each of the multiple resource pools is the first-type resource pool or each of the multiple resource pools is the second-type resource pool. The present application efficiently uses inter-user coordination resources to solve the problem of half-duplex and a hidden node.
