Abstract

A method for a first device to perform wireless communication and an apparatus supporting the same are provided. The method comprises, triggering resource selection in a first slot; determining a time interval of a selection window from the first slot based on a remaining packet delay budget (PDB), wherein the selection window includes Y candidate slots; performing sensing for L slots after the first slot; selecting at least one resource for sidelink (SL) transmission within the selection window based on the sensing for the L slots; transmitting, to a second device through a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH), a first sidelink control information (SCI) for scheduling of a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) and a second SCI; and transmitting, to the second device through the PSSCH, the second SCI and data.

Claims (49)

1. A method for performing wireless communication by a device, the method comprising:

triggering resource selection in a slot;

determining, based on the triggering, a time interval of a selection window from the slot based on a remaining packet delay budget (PDB), wherein the selection window includes Y candidate slots;

performing partial sensing for L slots from the slot and before a first slot of the Y candidate slots of the selection window; and

selecting at least one resource for sidelink (SL) transmission,

wherein, based on the L being smaller than a minimum number of slots configured for the partial sensing, the selecting the at least one resource comprises: (i) randomly selecting the at least one resource, or (ii) selecting the at least one resource within the Y candidate slots based on the partial sensing,

wherein the Y is a positive integer, and

wherein the L is a positive integer.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the randomly selecting the at least one resource comprises randomly selecting the at least one resource based on the remaining PDB.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first slot of the Y candidate slots of the selection window is a first occurring slot of the Y candidate slots of the selection window.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the L slots are L slots belonging to a resource pool, located from the slot in which the resource selection is triggered.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein a number of the L slots belonging to the resource pool from the slot and before the first slot of the Y candidate slots of the selection window is smaller than the minimum number of slots.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first slot of the Y candidate slots is located after a first processing time and a second processing time from a last slot of the L slots.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the first processing time is a time required for the first device to process a result of the partial sensing, and

wherein the second processing time is a time required for the first device to select the at least one resource based on the result of the partial sensing.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining an SL discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration including information related to an active time of the second device.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the at least one resource includes at least one first resource selected within the active time and at least one second resource selected outside the active time.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein a minimum number of the Y candidate slots is configured for the first device.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on the L being greater than or equal to the minimum number of slots configured for the partial sensing, the selecting the at least one resource comprises selecting the at least one resource within the Y candidate slots based on the partial sensing, and

wherein the Y candidate slots are selected by the first device so that the L is greater than or equal to the minimum number of slots configured for the partial sensing.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the minimum number of slots is configured for the first device.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the minimum number of slots is configured for the first device through a resource pool configuration.

14. A first device adapted to perform wireless communication, 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, perform operations comprising:

triggering resource selection in a slot;

determining, based on the triggering, a time interval of a selection window from the slot based on a remaining packet delay budget (PDB), wherein the selection window includes Y candidate slots;

performing partial sensing for L slots from the slot and before a first slot of the Y candidate slots of the selection window; and

selecting at least one resource for sidelink (SL) transmission,

wherein, based on the L being smaller than a minimum number of slots configured for the partial sensing, the selecting the at least one resource comprises: (i) randomly selecting the at least one resource, or (ii) selecting the at least one resource within the Y candidate slots based on the partial sensing,

wherein the Y is a positive integer, and

wherein the L is a positive integer.

15. The first device of claim 14 , wherein the randomly selecting the at least one resource comprises randomly selecting the at least one resource based on the remaining PDB.

16. The first device of claim 14 , wherein the first slot of the Y candidate slots of the selection window is a first occurring slot of the Y candidate slots of the selection window.

17. The first device of claim 14 , wherein the L slots are L slots belonging to a resource pool, located from the slot in which the resource selection is triggered.

18. The first device of claim 14 , wherein the minimum number of slots is configured for the first device.

19. A processing device adapted to control a first device performing wireless communication, 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, perform operations comprising:

triggering resource selection in a slot;

determining, based on the triggering, a time interval of a selection window from the slot based on a remaining packet delay budget (PDB), wherein the selection window includes Y candidate slots;

performing partial sensing for L slots from the slot and before a first slot of the Y candidate slots of the selection window; and

selecting at least one resource for sidelink (SL) transmission,

wherein, based on the L being smaller than a minimum number of slots configured for the partial sensing, the selecting the at least one resource comprises: (i) randomly selecting the at least one resource, or (ii) selecting the at least one resource within the Y candidate slots based on the partial sensing,

wherein the Y is a positive integer, and

wherein the L is a positive integer.

20. The processing device of claim 19 , wherein the randomly selecting the at least one resource comprises randomly selecting the at least one resource based on the remaining PDB.
