Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a transmit user equipment (UE) may determine that a channel busy ratio satisfies a channel busy ratio threshold. The transmit UE may reserve, based at least in part on determining that the channel busy ratio satisfies the channel busy ratio threshold, a resource for transmission of a packet with a particular priority to the receive UE, wherein the resource is in a set of resources outside of a sidelink discontinuous reception (DRX) on duration of a receive UE. The transmit UE may transmit the packet using the resource based at least in part on reserving the resource.
