Abstract

Systems and methods for utilizing inter-UE coordination regarding reserved resources of a sidelink (SL) resource pool are described herein. A first user equipment (UE) may identify that a first SL resource pool on a first radio access technology (RAT) overlaps with a second SL resource pool on a second RAT, sense for reservation signaling on the second SL resource pool to determine reserved resources on the second SL resource pool, and transmit resource reservation information indicating those reserved resources on SL on the first RAT. A second UE may receive the resource reservation information on the SL, identify, within the first SL resource pool, corresponding resources that overlap with the reserved resources of the second SL resource pool, select, from the first SL resource pool, transmission resources to use for a SL transmission by prioritizing resources other than the corresponding resources; and perform the SL transmission using those transmission resources.
