SIDELINK BEAM MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE

Abstract: systems and methods for sidelink (sl) beam maintenance procedures between a transmit (tx) user equipment (ue) and a receive (rx) ue are disclosed herein. the tx ue may send a combined physical sidelink control channel (pscch)/physical sidelink shared channel (pssch) having one or more channel state information reference signals (csi-rss) on corresponding beams to the rx ue. the rx ue may perform beam measurement on the csi-rss and send a beam report to the tx ue that is based on such measurement. systems and methods for triggering sl beam measurement between the tx ue and the rx ue, for performing various procedures for sl beam maintenance between the tx ue and the rx ue, and for sending beam reports between the tx ue and the rx ue are described.
