Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, device, apparatus and computer readable medium for sidelink transmission. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, a first device determines a target transmission start position from a set of candidate transmission starting positions in a sidelink slot based on an access level of a sidelink transmission to be performed. The first device performs a LBT before the target transmission starting position. If the LBT is successful, the first device performs the sidelink transmission from the target transmission starting position. In this way, it enables the use on Mode 2 in shared/unlicensed spectrum, while addressing the issues of un-sensed (not detected) SPS transmissions due to LBT failure as well as making mode 2 more robust towards LBT failures due to other coexisting systems.
