Abstract

A method for a first device to perform wireless communication based on partial sensing and an apparatus supporting the same are provided. The method may comprise: triggering a resource selection procedure; determining a selection window within a packet delay budget (PDB) based on the triggering of the resource selection procedure; selecting Y candidate slots in the selection window; performing sensing within a contiguous partial sensing (CPS) window related to the Y candidate slots; and selecting a sidelink (SL) resource based on random selection within the selection window, based on the number of slots included in the CPS window which is less than a minimum number of slots, wherein Y is a positive integer.

Claims (46)

1. A method for performing wireless communication based on partial sensing by a first device, the method comprising:

triggering a resource selection procedure;

determining a time interval within a packet delay budget (PDB) based on the triggering of the resource selection procedure;

selecting Y candidate slots within the time interval;

determining a contiguous partial sensing (CPS) window related to the Y candidate slots; and

selecting a sidelink (SL) resource,

wherein, based on that a minimum number of slots for CPS is not guaranteed, the SL resource is selected based on random selection from a resource pool, and

wherein Y is a positive integer.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on that the minimum number of slots for the CPS is guaranteed, the SL resource is selected based on the CPS in the Y candidate slots.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein information related to the minimum number of slots for the CPS is configured for the first device.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the information related to the minimum number of slots for the CPS indicates a minimum size of the CPS window.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein information related to the resource pool is configured for the first device.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the Y candidate slots are selected within the time interval such that Y is greater than or equal to a minimum number of candidate slots.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on that a number of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) negative acknowledgment (NACK) receptions is less than or equal to a threshold, the first device is allowed not to perform sensing within the CPS window related to the Y candidate slots.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on that a channel congestion level is less than or equal to a threshold, the first device is allowed not to perform sensing within the CPS window related to the Y candidate slots.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on that the resource selection procedure is triggered for SL transmission with a minimum communication range requirement which is less than or equal to a threshold, the first device is allowed not to perform sensing within the CPS window related to the Y candidate slots.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on that the resource selection procedure is triggered for SL transmission with a priority value which is less than or equal to a threshold, the first device is allowed not to perform sensing within the CPS window related to the Y candidate slots.

11. A first device adapted to perform wireless communication based on partial sensing, the first device comprising:

at least one transceiver;

at least one processor; and

at least one memory connected to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, based on being executed by the at least one processor, cause the first device to perform operations comprising:

triggering a resource selection procedure;

determining a time interval within a packet delay budget (PDB) based on the triggering of the resource selection procedure;

selecting Y candidate slots within the time interval;

determining a contiguous partial sensing (CPS) window related to the Y candidate slots; and

selecting a sidelink (SL) resource,

wherein, based on that a minimum number of slots for CPS is not guaranteed, the SL resource is selected based on random selection from a resource pool, and

wherein Y is a positive integer.

12. The first device of claim 11 , wherein, based on that the minimum number of slots for the CPS is guaranteed, the SL resource is selected based on the CPS in the Y candidate slots.

13. The first device of claim 11 , wherein information related to the minimum number of slots for the CPS is configured for the first device.

14. The first device of claim 13 , wherein the information related to the minimum number of slots for the CPS indicates a minimum size of the CPS window.

15. The first device of claim 11 , wherein information related to the resource pool is configured for the first device.

16. A processing device adapted to control a first device performing wireless communication based on partial sensing, the processing device comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one memory connected to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, based on being executed by the at least one processor, cause the first device to perform operations comprising:

triggering a resource selection procedure;

determining a time interval within a packet delay budget (PDB) based on the triggering of the resource selection procedure;

selecting Y candidate slots within the time interval;

determining a contiguous partial sensing (CPS) window related to the Y candidate slots; and

selecting a sidelink (SL) resource,

wherein, based on that a minimum number of slots for CPS is not guaranteed, the SL resource is selected based on random selection from a resource pool, and

wherein Y is a positive integer.

17. The processing device of claim 16 , wherein, based on that the minimum number of slots for the CPS is guaranteed, the SL resource is selected based on the CPS in the Y candidate slots.

18. The processing device of claim 16 , wherein information related to the minimum number of slots for the CPS is configured for the first device.

19. The processing device of claim 18 , wherein the information related to the minimum number of slots for the CPS indicates a minimum size of the CPS window.

20. The processing device of claim 16 , wherein information related to the resource pool is configured for the first device.
