BEAM MANAGEMENT BLOCK FOR SIDELINK - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18458980 titled 'BEAM MANAGEMENT BLOCK FOR SIDELINK
Simplified Explanation
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may perform sensing in a sidelink resource pool. The UE may select, based at least in part on the sensing, one or more sidelink resources for one or more sidelink beam management blocks, where each sidelink beam management block includes at least one reference signal and sidelink control information. The UE may transmit the one or more sidelink beam management blocks in a sidelink beam management block burst using the one or more sidelink resources. Numerous other aspects are described.
- User equipment (UE) performs sensing in a sidelink resource pool.
- UE selects one or more sidelink resources based on sensing for sidelink beam management blocks.
- Sidelink beam management blocks contain reference signals and control information.
- UE transmits sidelink beam management blocks using selected resources.
