    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed. In an example from the perspective of a first device, the first device is configured with a second set of slot offsets by a network. The first device receives, from the network, a second Downlink Control Information (DCI) scheduling a sidelink resource. The first device performs sidelink transmission, to a second device, on the sidelink resource. The first device monitors and/or receives a sidelink hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (SL HARQ-ACK) feedback from the second device in a fourth slot. The SL HARQ-ACK feedback is associated with the sidelink transmission. The first device derives, based on the fourth slot and a second slot offset value indicated by the second DCI, a third slot for transmitting a SL HARQ-ACK to the network. The second set of slot offsets includes the second slot offset value. The SL HARQ-ACK is set/derived/determined based on the received SL HARQ-ACK feedback.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a first device. In one embodiment, the method includes the first device performs sensing on a data resource pool, and the first device selects/derives at least a first data resource from the data resource pool based on the sensing result of the data resource pool. The method further includes the first device transmits a first control information on a first control resource, wherein the first control information allocates or indicates the first data resource. The method also includes the first device performs a first data transmission on the first data resource to at least one second device. Furthermore, the method includes the first device determines or derives a first set of feedback resource(s) based on the first control resource and/or the first data resource; and the first device receives a first set of feedback transmission(s) on the first set of feedback resource(s) from at least the one second device, wherein the first set of feedback transmissions are associated with the first data transmission.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are disclosed from the perspective of a User Equipment (UE). In one method, the method includes the UE is configured by a network node to receive and/or monitor a signal within a channel occupancy time, wherein the signal indicates information of one or multiple TTIs (Transmission Time Interval) of a serving cell. The method further includes the UE derives state or functionality of one or more symbol(s) in the one or multiple TTIs based on the information, wherein the information indicates a symbol in the one or multiple TTIs to be any of “downlink”, “uplink”, “flexible”, or “blank”. The method also includes the UE derives or is indicated that at least one set of consecutive symbol(s) are indicated as “blank”. Furthermore, the method includes the UE prevents from or is not required to perform reception for (dynamically) indicated or configured physical DL (Downlink) channel or RS (Reference Signal) within the set of consecutive symbols indicated as “blank”. In addition, the method includes the UE prevents from or is not required to perform transmission for (dynamically) indicated or configured physical UL (Uplink) channel or RS within the set of consecutive symbols indicated as “blank”. Also, the method includes the UE being allowed to perform a channel access procedure or LBT (Listen Before Talk) scheme within the set of consecutive symbols indicated as “blank”.
