    Abstract: In an example, a UE receives, from a network, a configuration of a sidelink resource pool. Physical Sidelink Feedback Channel (PSFCH) resources of the sidelink resource pool are configured, periodically with a period of N slots, in slots of the sidelink resource pool. The UE receives, from the network, a configuration with a set of time offsets for determining an association set. The UE determines one or more slots. Each slot of the one or more slots is in the association set and contains a PSFCH resource of the sidelink resource pool. The UE generates a sidelink Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) codebook based upon one or more occasions associated with one or more PSFCH resources of the sidelink resource pool. The one or more occasions is determined or derived based upon the one or more slots and the period of N slots.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a first device for performing sidelink communication. In one embodiment, the first device includes a MAC CE in a MAC PDU, wherein if the MAC PDU comprises the MAC CE without data, SL HARQ feedback is disabled for the MAC PDU. The first device further includes sidelink data associated with a first sidelink logical channel in the MAC PDU, wherein the first sidelink logical channel is configured to enable sidelink HARQ feedback. The first device also sets or indicates enable SL HARQ feedback for the MAC PDU in a SCI, wherein the SCI schedules a sidelink transmission delivering the MAC PDU. Furthermore, the first device transmits the SCI and performs the sidelink transmission to a second device.

    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 second User Equipment (UE) for performing sidelink transmission to a first UE. In one embodiment, the method includes the second UE generating a MAC (Medium Access Control) CE (Control Element) with a fixed or (pre-defined) priority value, wherein the MAC CE is for transmitting to the first UE. The method further includes the second UE generating a MAC PDU (Protocol Data Unit) comprising the MAC CE and sidelink data from one or more sidelink logical channels, wherein the sidelink data is available for transmitting to the first UE. Furthermore, the method includes the second UE setting a priority field in a first SCI to a fixed or (pre-defined) priority value of the MAC CE. In addition, the method includes the second UE transmitting the first SCI to the first UE, wherein the first SCI schedules a first sidelink transmission for transmitting the MAC PDU.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a User Equipment (UE). In one embodiment, the method includes the UE being served and/or configured with a first cell and a second cell. The method also includes the UE transmitting a beam failure recovery request via a PRACH (Physical Random Access Channel) in the second cell in response to the UE detecting that all links associated with monitored control resource set(s) in the second cell have failed. Furthermore, the method includes the UE transmitting a first report via a PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel) in the second cell in response to the UE detecting that all links associated with monitored control resource set(s) in the first cell have failed.
