Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration of a set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests. The UE may transmit a sidelink coordination information request message in at least one resource selected from the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Claims (49)

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

one or more processors;

one or more memories, coupled to the one or more processors and storing one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the UE to:

receive a configuration of a set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests; and

transmit a sidelink coordination information request message in at least one resource selected from the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests, wherein the at least one resource is based at least in part on one or more of an identifier of the UE, an identifier of another UE that is to respond to the sidelink coordination information request message, or a periodicity of requesting occasions for sidelink coordination information requests.

2. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the at least one resource is randomly selected.

3. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are in a requesting occasion that occurs periodically.

4. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are in a single requesting occasion.

5. The UE of claim 4 , wherein the single requesting occasion maps to a single reporting occasion.

6. The UE of claim 4 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are consecutively indexed within the single requesting occasion.

7. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are in a group of multiple requesting occasions that occur periodically.

8. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are in multiple requesting occasions.

9. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the multiple requesting occasions map to a single reporting occasion.

10. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are consecutively indexed across the multiple requesting occasions.

11. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are consecutively indexed within a single requesting occasion of the multiple requesting occasions.

12. The UE of claim 8 , wherein a first resource in a first requesting occasion of the multiple requesting occasions and a second resource in a second requesting occasion of the multiple requesting occasions are associated with a same index value and different resources of a reporting occasion.

13. The UE of claim 1 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

receive an indication of a resource assignment for the at least one resource.

14. The UE of claim 1 , wherein an indexing of the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests changes over time.

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

one or more processors;

one or more memories, coupled to the one or more processors and storing one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the UE to:

transmit a sidelink coordination information request message in at least one resource selected from a set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests, wherein the at least one resource is based at least in part on one or more of an identifier of the UE, an identifier of another UE that is to respond to the sidelink coordination information request message, or a periodicity of requesting occasions for sidelink coordination information requests; and

receive a sidelink coordination information report message in response to the sidelink coordination information request message.

16. The UE of claim 15 , wherein the at least one resource is selected using a procedure for sensing channel availability.

17. The UE of claim 15 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

transmit an indication that the at least one resource is reserved for the UE.

18. The UE of claim 15 , wherein the at least one resource is randomly selected.

19. The UE of claim 15 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are in a single requesting occasion.

20. The UE of claim 19 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are consecutively indexed within the single requesting occasion.

21. The UE of claim 15 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are in multiple requesting occasions.

22. The UE of claim 21 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are consecutively indexed across the multiple requesting occasions.

23. The UE of claim 21 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are consecutively indexed within a single requesting occasion of the multiple requesting occasions.

24. The UE of claim 15 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

receive an indication of a resource assignment that includes the at least one resource.

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

one or more processors;

one or more memories, coupled to the one or more processors and storing one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the UE to:

receive a configuration of a set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests; and

receive a sidelink coordination information request message in at least one resource from the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests, wherein the at least one resource is based at least in part on one or more of an identifier of the UE, an identifier of another UE that is to respond to the sidelink coordination information request message, or a periodicity of requesting occasions for sidelink coordination information requests.

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

one or more processors;

one or more memories, coupled to the one or more processors and storing one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the UE to:

receive a sidelink coordination information request message in at least one resource from a set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests, wherein the at least one resource is based at least in part on one or more of an identifier of the UE, an identifier of another UE that is to respond to the sidelink coordination information request message, or a periodicity of requesting occasions for sidelink coordination information requests; and

transmit a sidelink coordination information report message in response to the sidelink coordination information request message.

27. The UE of claim 25 , wherein the at least one resource is randomly selected.

28. The UE of claim 25 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are in a single requesting occasion or a requesting occasion that occurs periodically.

29. The UE of claim 26 , wherein the at least one resource is randomly selected.

30. The UE of claim 26 , wherein the set of resources for sidelink coordination information requests are in a single requesting occasion or a requesting occasion that occurs periodically.
