An apparatus for a wireless communication system is configured to be connected to at least one UE via a sidelink for a sidelink communication with the one or more UEs. The apparatus is configured to obtain distance information representing a certain communication range or a certain distance around the apparatus, perform a communication with one or more UEs at or within the certain communication range or the certain distance at a first priority to meet a predefined QoS, and perform a communication with one or more UEs outside the certain communication range or the certain distance at a second priority, the first priority being higher than the second priority to meet a predefined QoS.

Proximity awareness in sidelink communications

A user equipment for wireless communications is provided. The user equipment includes a transmitter and a receiver. A first resource pool includes a first plurality of resources for transmission. A second resource pool includes a second plurality of resources for transmission. The second resource pool configuration is different from the first resource pool configuration or is equal to the first resource pool configuration. The transmitter is configured to transmit a first critical communication notification being a first message in the first resource pool, wherein the first critical communication notification indicates that a second message is to be transmitted in the second resource pool. Moreover, the transmitter is configured to transmit the second message in the second resource pool after transmitting the first critical communication notification or at a same time when transmitting the first critical communication notification. Moreover, a third resource pool and a fourth resource pool is provided.

User equipment and method with improved critical communication notification in wireless communications

A user device, UE, for a wireless communication system, is connected to one or more further UEs in the wireless communication system for a sidelink communication with the one or more further UEs. The sidelink communication include one or more sidelink control messages, e.g., a Sidelink Control Information, SCI, to be transmitted on sidelink resources. The UE identifies a sidelink control message for the UE by blind decoding, and decodes the sidelink control message for the UE to derive control information embedded the sidelink control message. The UE is pre-configured or configured by a network or a base-station with a sidelink, SL, search space, e.g., a SL-CORESET or SL control channel occasions, in the sidelink resources. The sidelink search space includes one or more search occasions where the UE is to perform the blind decoding on the sidelink resources.

NR sidelink control message design

Embodiments provide a method for sharing unused resources between at least two transceivers of a wireless communication system, at least a second transceiver of the at least two transceivers operating in a sidelink in-coverage, out of coverage or partial coverage scenario, in which resources for a sidelink communication over a sidelink are pre-configured by the wireless communication system or scheduled autonomously by the second transceiver, the method having: reporting, by a first transceiver of the at least two transceivers, a set of unused resources of the first transceiver to the second transceiver, determining, by the second transceiver, a set of candidate resources out of the resources of the sidelink, the set of candidate resources comprising at least a part of the unused resources of the first transceiver, performing, by the second transceiver, a sidelink transmission using selected resources selected out of the set of candidate resources.

Coordinated inter-UE resource allocation

A mobile device being a member of a communication group and configured to communicate with one or more other members of the communication group and to exchange control information with the one or more other members, wherein the mobile device is configured to create an identification information and to transmit the identification information on a physical layer of the control information, wherein the identification information assigns the communication group.

Mobile device and method

A wireless communication system, including: a plurality of time variant transmission points for communicating with a user device, UE, wherein the UE is in a tracking region, wherein the UE is configured to receive and store a list including identifiers, IDs, of time variant transmission points for the tracking region, and wherein the list includes IDs of time variant transmission points which are available or visible for the UE in the one tracking region at different times or time periods.

Inline interference management

The embodiments herein relate to a method performed by a UE () capable for sidelink communications, for congestion control in a wireless telecommunications network, wherein the UE is allocated one or more resource pools, the method comprising: performing () CBR/CR measurements on said at least one resource pool to generate CBR/CR value(s); wherein the measurements are performed over a sensing window which is either pre-configured or adapted based on the QoS of at least one data packet or at least one service, and selecting () a resource pool or at least one resource within the resource pool based on a CBR/value and QoS requirements of the data packet or the service for transmission.
