    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.

    Abstract: In one aspect, a method of wireless communication includes transmitting, by a user equipment (UE), a first transmission in a first Channel Occupancy Time (COT) for a NR-U sidelink channel. The method also includes reserving, by the UE, a resource in a non-shared portion of a second COT and performing, by the UE, a Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) Category (CAT) 4 operation at a start of the second COT, wherein the second COT is associated with the UE. The method includes performing, by the UE, a continuous transmission operation in the second COT based on successfully performing the LBT CAT 4 operation. The method further includes transmitting, by the UE, a second transmission in the reserved resource of the non-shared portion of the second COT based on successfully performing a second LBT CAT 1 or 2 operation. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.

    Abstract: Wireless communications systems and methods related to performing contention credit-based listen-before-talk (LBT) for communications over a shared radio frequency band (e.g., in a shared spectrum or in an unlicensed spectrum) are provided. A wireless communication device performs a first clear channel assessment (CCA) including a first countdown. The wireless communication device transmits, after a gap period from the first countdown, a first communication signal. The wireless communication device performs a second CCA including a second countdown. The wireless communication device transmits, beginning before an end of the second countdown, a second communication signal based on at least a first contention credit associated with the gap period.
