Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for a user equipment (UE) with concurrent sidelink and network link connections to operate the sidelink connection in accordance with a configured behavior associated with a bandwidth part (BWP) operation mode on the network link. The UE behavior may include, for example, no impact on sidelink activity when the network link is in a dormant or network energy saving (NES) mode, discontinuation of sidelink operation when the BWP is configured with a dormant or NES operation mode, or sidelink operation only in an identified sidelink mode when the BWP is configured with a dormant or NES operation mode. The sidelink operation mode based on NES mode of a network link BWP may be signaled to the UE on a per-BWP basis, or based on configuration and separate indication when a BWP is enabled.
