Abstract

Methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable mediums for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) includes transmitting a packet on a first resource, determining one or more repetition resources on which to send one or more redundancy versions of the packet, wherein the one or more repetition resources are at a time subsequent to the first resource, transmitting repetition resource information identifying the one or more repetition resources to one or more neighboring UEs, and transmitting the one or more redundancy versions of the packet on respective ones of the one or more repetition resources.

Claims (53)

1. A method of wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

transmitting, from the UE to one or more other UEs, a packet on a first resource;

transmitting, from the UE to the one or more other UEs, repetition resource information identifying a repetition resource for use in transmitting a redundancy version of the packet; and

transmitting, from the UE to the one or more other UEs, the redundancy version of the packet on the repetition resource.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the repetition resource avoids a time, a frequency overlap, or both with regard to a set of one or more resources of a set of one or more received packets.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the repetition resource is randomly selected.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting of the repetition resource information comprises transmitting via a control channel.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving UE repetition resource information identifying a second UE repetition resource to be used by a second UE for transmitting a UE packet; and

wherein the repetition resource excludes the second UE repetition resource from a set of available resources for the repetition resource.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the repetition resource includes at least one of: a time-based resource, a frequency resource, or a time and frequency resource.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein a frequency of the time and frequency resource comprises a same frequency as the first resource for the transmitting of the packet, a matching frequency for at least two consecutive transmissions of the redundancy version of the packet, or a second frequency different from a first frequency of the first resource.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the repetition resource is from a set of predefined resources.

9. A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:

a memory; and

a processor communicatively coupled with the memory, wherein the processor is configured to:

transmit, from the UE to one or more other UEs, a packet on a first resource;

transmit, from the UE to the one or more other UEs, repetition resource information identifying a repetition resource for use in transmitting a redundancy version of the packet;

and

transmit, from the UE to the one or more other UEs, the redundancy version of the packet on the repetition resource.

10. The UE of claim 9 , wherein the repetition resource avoids a time, a frequency overlap, or both with regard to a set of one or more resources of a set of one or more received packets.

11. The UE of claim 9 , wherein the repetition resource is randomly selected.

12. The UE of claim 9 , wherein the transmitting of the repetition resource information comprises transmitting via a control channel.

13. The UE of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

receive UE repetition resource information identifying a second UE repetition resource to be used by a second UE for transmitting a UE packet; and

wherein the repetition resource excludes the second UE repetition resource from a set of available resources for the repetition resource.

14. The UE of claim 9 , wherein the repetition resource includes at least one of: a time-based resource, a frequency resource, or a time and frequency resource.

15. The UE of claim 14 , wherein a frequency of the time and frequency resource comprises a same frequency as the first resource for the transmitting of the packet, a matching frequency for at least two consecutive transmissions of the redundancy version of the packet, or a second frequency different from a first frequency of the first resource.

16. The UE of claim 9 , wherein the repetition resource is from a set of predefined resources.

17. A non-transitory computer-readable medium of a user equipment (UE), the computer-readable medium comprising computer executable code to:

Transmit, from the UE to one or more other UEs, a packet on a first resource;

transmit, from the UE to the one or more other UEs, repetition resource information identifying a repetition resource for use in transmitting a redundancy version of the packet; and

transmit, from the UE to the one or more other UEs, the redundancy version of the packet on the repetition resource.

18. The computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the repetition resource avoids a time, a frequency overlap, or both with regard to a set of one or more resources of a set of one or more received packets.

19. The computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the repetition resource is randomly selected.

20. The computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the code to transmit of the repetition resource information comprises code to transmit via a control channel.

21. The computer-readable medium of claim 17 , further comprising code to:

receive UE repetition resource information identifying a second UE repetition resource to be used by a second UE for transmitting a UE packet; and

wherein the repetition resource excludes the second UE repetition resource from a set of available resources for the repetition resource.

22. The computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the repetition resource includes at least one of: a time-based resource, a frequency resource, or a time and frequency resource.

23. The computer-readable medium of claim 22 , wherein a frequency of the time and frequency resource comprises a same frequency as the first resource for the transmitting of the packet, a matching frequency for at least two consecutive transmissions of the redundancy version of the packet, or a second frequency different from a first frequency of the first resource.

24. A user equipment (UE), comprising:

means for transmitting, from the UE to one or more other UEs, a packet on a first resource;

means for transmitting, from the UE to the one or more other UEs, repetition resource information identifying a repetition resource for use in transmitting a redundancy version of the packet; and

means for transmitting, from the UE to the one or more other UEs, the redundancy version of the packet on the repetition resource.

25. The UE of claim 24 , wherein the repetition resource avoids a time, a frequency overlap, or both with regard to a set of one or more resources of a set of one or more received packets.

26. The UE of claim 24 , wherein the repetition resource is randomly selected.

27. The UE of claim 24 , wherein means for transmitting of the repetition resource information comprises means for transmitting via a control channel.

28. The UE of claim 24 , further comprising:

means for receiving UE repetition resource information identifying a second UE repetition resource to be used by a second UE for transmitting a UE packet; and

wherein the repetition resource excludes the second UE repetition resource from a set of available resources for the repetition resource.

29. The UE of claim 24 , wherein the repetition resource includes at least one of: a time-based resource, a frequency resource, or a time and frequency resource.

30. The UE of claim 29 , wherein a frequency of the time and frequency resource comprises a same frequency as the first resource for the transmitting of the packet, a matching frequency for at least two consecutive transmissions of the redundancy version of the packet, or a second frequency different from a first frequency of the first resource.
