Abstract:
Wireless communication devices are adapted to facilitate power conservation and sidelink communications. According to one example, a wireless communication device can transmit a reservation signal to reserve one or more sidelink resources for use by another device, and receive a sidelink transmission from the other device on at least a portion of the one or more reserved sidelink resources. According to another example, a wireless communication device can detect a reservation signal from another device, where the reservation signal is configured to reserve one or more sidelink resources, and transmit a sidelink transmission on at least a portion of the one or more of the sidelink resources reserved by the other device. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.
