Abstract

A wireless device triggers a sidelink scheduling request (SR) procedure based on sidelink data becoming available while operating in a first sidelink resource allocation mode. The wireless device determines a failure of the sidelink SR procedure based on determining a non-configuration or a deactivation of a resource for transmission of a SR of the sidelink SR procedure, and switches to a second sidelink resource allocation mode in response to the failure of the sidelink SR procedure.

Claims (45)

1. A method, comprising:

triggering a sidelink scheduling request procedure based on sidelink data when operating in a first sidelink resource allocation mode;

determining a failure of the sidelink scheduling request procedure based on determining a non-configuration or a deactivation of a resource for transmission of a sidelink scheduling request of the sidelink scheduling request procedure; and

switching to a second sidelink resource allocation mode in response to the failure of the sidelink scheduling request procedure.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving at least one radio resource control message,

wherein the at least on radio resource control message indicates the first sidelink resource allocation mode,

wherein a wireless device receives at least one sidelink grant for first sidelink transmissions in the first sidelink resource allocation mode,

wherein the at least one radio resource control message indicates the second sidelink resource allocation mode,

wherein the wireless device selects at least one sidelink resource for second sidelink transmissions in a second sidelink resource allocation mode.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting the sidelink data when operating in the second sidelink resource allocation mode.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising triggering a transmission of a buffer status report in response to the sidelink data becoming available when operating in the first sidelink resource allocation mode.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein triggering of the sidelink scheduling request procedure is in response to the transmission of the buffer status report.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving at least one second radio resource control message,

wherein the at least one second radio resource control message indicates that a first sidelink resource pool is associated with the first sidelink resource allocation mode; and

wherein the at least one second radio resource control message indicates that a second sidelink resource pool is associated with the second sidelink resource allocation mode.

7. The method of claim 6 , the method further comprising using an exceptional resource pool during a handover procedure, wherein the second sidelink resource pool is the exceptional resource pool.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the second sidelink resource pool is the same as the first sidelink resource pool.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the failure of the sidelink scheduling request procedure comprises determining that a valid physical uplink control channel resource for the sidelink scheduling request procedure is not available.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the non-configuration of the resource for transmission of the sidelink scheduling request of the sidelink scheduling request procedure comprises determining that a physical uplink control channel resource for the sidelink scheduling request procedure is not configured for the wireless device.

11. A wireless device, comprising:

a processor circuit; and

a memory circuit,

wherein the memory is arranged to store instructions for the processor circuit,

wherein the processor circuit is arranged to trigger a sidelink scheduling request procedure based on sidelink data when operating in a first sidelink resource allocation mode;

wherein the processor circuit is arranged to determine a failure of the sidelink scheduling request procedure based on determining a non-configuration or a deactivation of a resource for transmission of a sidelink scheduling request of the sidelink scheduling request procedure; and

wherein the processor circuit is arranged to switch to a second sidelink resource allocation mode in response to the failure of the sidelink scheduling request procedure.

12. The wireless device of claim 11 ,

wherein the processor circuit is arranged to receive at least one radio resource control message message,

wherein the at least on radio resource control message indicates the first sidelink resource allocation mode,

wherein the wireless device receives at least one sidelink grant for first sidelink transmissions in the first sidelink resource allocation mode,

wherein the at least one radio resource control message indicates the second sidelink resource allocation mode,

wherein the wireless device selects at least one sidelink resource resources for second sidelink transmissions in the second sidelink resource allocation mode.

13. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the processor circuit is arranged to transmit the sidelink data when operating in the second sidelink resource allocation mode.

14. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the processor circuit is arranged to transmit instructions trigger a transmission of a buffer status report in response to the sidelink data becoming available when operating in the first sidelink resource allocation mode.

15. The wireless device of claim 14 , wherein the sidelink scheduling request procedure is triggered in response to triggering of the transmission of the buffer status report.

16. The wireless device of claim 11 ,

wherein the processor circuit is arranged to receive at least one second radio resource control message, wherein the at least one second radio resource control message indicates message indicates that a first sidelink resource pool is associated with the first sidelink resource allocation mode; and

wherein the at least one second radio resource control messages indicates that a second sidelink resource pool is associated with the second sidelink resource allocation mode.

17. The wireless device of claim 16 ,

wherein the processor circuit is arranged to use an exceptional resource pool during a handover procedure,

wherein the second sidelink resource pool is the exceptional resource pool.

18. The wireless device of claim 16 , wherein the second sidelink resource pool is the same as the first sidelink resource pool.

19. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the processor circuit is arranged to determine the failure of the sidelink scheduling request procedure further by determining that a valid physical uplink control channel resource for the sidelink scheduling request procedure is not available.

20. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the processor circuit is arranged to determine the non-configuration of the resource for transmission of the sidelink scheduling request of the sidelink scheduling request procedure by determining that a physical uplink control channel resource for the sidelink scheduling request procedure is not configured for the wireless device.

21. A computer program stored on a non-transitory medium, wherein the computer program when executed on a processor performs the method as claimed in claim 1 .
