Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for initiating channel occupancy in a semi-static mode SL channel access in a wireless communication system. A method of a user equipment (UE) includes receiving, from a higher layer, an indication on a semi-static mode SL channel access, receiving a set of configurations for the semi-static mode SL channel access, including a duration of a period and determining a first portion of the period as a channel occupancy associated with the period. The method further includes determining a second portion of the period as an idle duration associated with the period, performing a SL channel access procedure in the idle duration associated with the period, and transmitting a first SL transmission over a channel in the channel occupancy associated with the period after successfully performing the SL channel access procedure.
