Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. For instance, a first wireless device may transmit, to a second wireless device, a first signal for probing an energy state of the second wireless device. The first wireless device may monitor for a second, backscattered signal indicating the energy state of the second wireless device and may transmit, to the second wireless device, an indication of resources for harvesting energy based on monitoring for the second, backscattered signal. The first wireless device may transmit, to the second wireless device and over the resources, a third signal distinct from the first signal and associated with harvesting energy.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for sending a retransmission via a sidelink wireless communication channel. A method that may be performed by a first user equipment (UE) includes receiving, from a base station, a first data transmission. The method also includes receiving, from the base station, a signal indicating to retransmit at least a portion of the first data transmission to a second UE. The method further includes transmitting, to the second UE, based at least in part on the signal, a second data transmission via one or more resources, the second data transmission comprising at least the portion of the first data transmission.

In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network node, scheduling information that indicates resource allocations for transmitting multiple sidelink transport blocks (TBs) and one or more receiving UEs associated with the multiple sidelink TBs. The UE may transmit one or more sidelink TBs of the multiple sidelink TBs based at least in part on the resource allocations and the one or more receiving UEs indicated in the scheduling information. Numerous other aspects are described.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for load resistance signaling for wireless power transfer. A method for wireless communication by a first wireless communication device includes receiving, from a second wireless communication device, a first plurality radio frequency (RF) signals, performing power measurements associated with the first plurality of RF signals, and transmitting, based in part on the power measurements, information indicating a waveform for the second wireless communication device to use to transmit a second plurality of RF signals to the first wireless communication device.

Techniques for load resistance signaling for wireless power transfer

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some examples, a user equipment (UE) may transmit to a network entity a first signal requesting a modification of allocated resources for sidelink transmission, sidelink reception, or both based on multiple transport blocks (TBs) for communication for the UE. The UE may receive, from the network entity, a downlink control information (DCI) signal granting one or more resources to the UE for sidelink communications based on the first signal. In some cases, the DCI signal may dynamically or periodically grant one or more resources for sidelink transmission, one or more resources for sidelink reception, or both for the UE. The UE may use the granted resources to communicate multiple TBs with one or more other UEs based on the DCI signal. For example, a single DCI message may allocate resources for sidelink communication of multiple TBs.

Multiple transport block (TB) grant for sidelink

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network node, scheduling information scheduling one or more communications. The one or more communications may be scheduled over one or more of a sidelink, an uplink, or a downlink. The scheduling information may provide one or more of a transmission parameter for the one or more communications or a reception parameter for the one or more communications. The UE may communicate the one or more communications based at least in part on the one or more of the transmission parameter or the reception parameter. Numerous other aspects are described.

Unifying sidelink and UU interface downlink control information

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a controller user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a network node, a relay scheduling request that indicates a request to schedule access to a universal mobile telecommunications system air interface (Uu) based at least in part on relaying one or more sidelink retransmissions associated with at least a first sidelink between the controller UE and a first sidelink UE. The UE may communicate the one or more sidelink retransmissions between the controller UE and the network node based at least in part on using the Uu. Numerous other aspects are described.

Efficient scheduling of a two-hop communication link

Wireless communications systems and methods related to communicating control information are provided. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE) may include performing a clear channel assessment (CCA), transmitting, to a first UE based on the CCA being successful, a first transport block (TB) via a first sub-PSSCH associated with a first sub-slot, and transmitting, to at least one of the first UE or a second UE, a second TB via a PSSCH associated with a slot.

The method further includes transmitting multiple unicast messages via multiple subgroups of the set of sidelink resources.

Scheduling sidelink resources for multiple unicasts by a single downlink control information message

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) and a network entity may communicate according to the capability of the network entity to transmit wireless energy transfer (WET) signals on communications resources as well as scheduling information for WET signals. A network entity may transmit control signaling indicating the capability of the network entity to support transmission of WET signals in a set of uplink resources and scheduling information for a set of WET signals.
