SKIPPED UPLINK CONFIGURED GRANT OCCASIONS IN SIDELINK TRANSMISSIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17822072 titled 'SKIPPED UPLINK CONFIGURED GRANT OCCASIONS IN SIDELINK TRANSMISSIONS
Simplified Explanation
- A UE with an UL-CG can use resources associated with UL transmissions for sidelink communications. - The first UE transmits an indication of the UL-CG configuration, including a set of periodic resources, to at least one second UE. - The first UE skips at least one UL transmission associated with the UL-CG configuration. - The skipped UL transmission corresponds to a subset of the set of periodic resources. - The first UE then transmits a SL transmission to the second UE using the subset of periodic resources corresponding to the skipped UL transmission.
Potential Applications
- Enhancing sidelink communications in wireless networks. - Improving resource utilization for UE with UL-CG configurations.
Problems Solved
- Efficient use of resources for sidelink communications. - Coordination of UL transmissions and sidelink communications for UE with UL-CG configurations.
Benefits
- Increased efficiency in utilizing resources for different types of communications. - Enhanced communication capabilities for UE with UL-CG configurations.
Original Abstract Submitted
Aspects presented herein may enable a UE with an UL-CG to use resources associated with one or more UL transmissions for sidelink communications. In one aspect, a first UE transmits an indication of an UL-CG configuration including a set of periodic resources, where the UL-CG configuration corresponds to at least one allocated UL transmission for the first UE to a network node, where the indication is transmitted to at least one second UE. The first UE skips at least one UL transmission associated with the UL-CG configuration, where the skipped at least one UL transmission corresponds to a subset of the set of periodic resources. The first UE transmits a SL transmission to the at least one second UE using at least the subset of the set of periodic resources corresponding to the skipped at least one UL transmission associated with the UL-CG configuration.
