    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a helper user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a signaling message requesting the helper UE to monitor for and transmit a sidelink communication in a manner that uses a single-frequency network, wherein the sidelink communication is to be transmitted by a source UE to a destination UE that is different from the helper UE. The helper UE may receive the sidelink communication, transmitted by the source UE to the destination UE, in a first time-frequency resource of the single-frequency network. The helper UE may transmit the sidelink communication in a second time-frequency resource of the single-frequency network, wherein the second time-frequency resource is indicated to the helper UE by the base station. Numerous other aspects are described.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatuses for indicating sidelink processes for sidelink feedback. A second user equipment (UE) may request hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) responses from a first UE for a particular set of sidelink processes over a physical sidelink feedback channel. To indicate multiple sidelink processes, the second UE may indicate, in sidelink control information, a window of sidelink processes. The window may be a sliding window that starts with a starting sidelink process and extends through other sidelink processes. The second UE may transmit data for the sidelink processes in the sliding window and receive feedback for the indicated sidelink processes. In some aspects, the first UE may select, in coordination with the second UE, the sidelink processes for which feedback is to be provided.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, on an access link from a base station, a first downlink control information (DCI) that schedules a first communication on a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) and a second DCI that schedules a second communication on the PSSCH. The first communication and the second communication may be scheduled according to a rule for overlapping or ordering communications on the PSSCH that are associated with one or more hybrid automatic repeat request identifiers. The UE may transmit the first communication and the second communication as scheduled. Numerous other aspects are described.

    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide systems and methods for assigning one or more user equipments (UEs) at one or more corresponding starting positions of multiple slots to perform channel access procedures, such as listen before talk (LBT) procedures in New Radio unlicensed band (NR-U) sidelink communications. The network entity may indicate, to a UE, a starting position in a multi-opportunity grant (e.g., a DCI scheduling multiple slots). The network entity may multiplex different transmitter UEs with different starting positions. If the channel accessing procedure is successful, the transmitter UE with the earliest starting position than the rest may block the rest of the transmitter UEs. In some cases, starting position hopping may be used so that the multiple UEs may have different priority at different slots. In some cases, the DCI may include LBT parameters that are inherited from NR-U uplink transmission configurations.

    Abstract: Aspects described herein relate to sidelink transmissions. In an example, a first user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network entity, a first sidelink grant for a transmission between the first UE and a second UE; communicate the transmission according to the first sidelink grant to the second UE; determine initiation of a sidelink round trip timer subsequent to communicating the transmission to the second UE; and initiate an inactive mode for the first UE based on a second grant not being received from the network entity before completion of a duration of a sidelink retransmission timer that was initiated upon completion of a duration of the sidelink round trip timer, the first UE being configured out of an ON duration of a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle, and an inactivity timer expiring before completion of the duration of the sidelink retransmission timer.

    Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to multiple starting points for new radio sidelink transmission over unlicensed band are provided. In some aspects, a UE may perform a channel access procedure to access a first physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) transmission resource of an unlicensed new radio spectrum. In some aspects, the first PSSCH transmission resource may be reserved by a control message and may include a plurality of transmission starting points. Further, the first UE may transmit first data to a second UE via the first PSSCH transmission resource starting at a later transmission starting point than one or more prior transmission starting points of the plurality of transmission starting points when the performing the channel access procedure fails at each of the one or more prior transmission starting points.
