Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for adjusting a contention window size. One apparatus includes a processor and a transceiver comprising a plurality of transmit panels. The transceiver initiates a first channel occupancy ('CO') using at least one transmit panel in response to a successful Listen-Before-Talk procedure and transmits a directional transmission using a first transmit panel, the first transmit panel selected from the plurality of transmit panels. The processor determines whether the directional transmission was successfully received by a recipient and updates a first contention window size specific to the first transmit panel. The processor performs a subsequent Listen-Before-Talk procedure using the updated first contention window size prior to a subsequent directional transmission using the first transmit panel.

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for determining which transmission to prioritize between overlapping SL and UL transmissions. One apparatus includes a processor and a transceiver operable on an uplink channel and on a sidelink channel. The processor identifies a sidelink transmission and an uplink transmission planned for an overlapping time and determines a transmission type of the sidelink transmission and of the overlapping uplink transmission. The processor prioritizes the uplink transmission over the sidelink transmission in response to the transmission type of the uplink transmission being a random-access procedure message for a primary cell. The processor prioritizes the sidelink transmission over the uplink transmission in response to the transmission type of the uplink transmission being a reference signal transmission.

A higher layer configuration message can be received that indicates a set of resource blocks for receiving data packets in at least one symbol of a subframe. An attempt can be made to decode a data packet in a first set of resource elements within the set of resource blocks. The first set of resource elements can be in the at least one symbol of the subframe. An attempt can be made to decode the data packet in at least a second set of resource elements within the set of resource blocks. The second set of resource elements can be in the at least one symbol of the subframe. The second set of resource elements can include at least one resource element that is not in the first set of resource elements. The data packet in one of the first set of resource elements and the second set of resource elements can be successfully decoded. A data payload of the decoded data packet can be delivered to an application layer.
