Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure include methods and devices for informing a base station of autonomously selected SL resources to allow the base station to adjust the DL transmission to mitigate the degradation of the reception of a DL transmission due to self-interference that overlaps with a SL transmission. A device may be configured to select resources for a SL transmission and to transmit, in an UL transmission to a base station, an indication of the resources selected for the SL transmission. A base station may be configured to receive, in an UL transmission, an indication of resources selected for a SL transmission from a UE, and to transmit, based on the indication of the resources selected for the SL transmission, at least one DL transmission that overlaps in time with the SL transmission.
