Abstract: Wireless communications systems, apparatuses, and methods are provided. A method of wireless communication performed by a first user equipment (UE) may include transmitting, to a network unit, an indication associated with channel occupancy time (COT) sharing on sidelink communication, receiving, from the network unit, a COT indicator, wherein the COT indicator indicates to the first UE to initiate a COT on sidelink communication based on the indication associated with the COT sharing or the COT indicator indicates to the first UE to share the COT on sidelink communication based on the indication associated with the COT sharing on sidelink communication, and transmitting, to a second UE, a communication during the COT on sidelink communication.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for paging in sidelink L2 relay scenarios. An example method generally includes receiving, from one of a network entity or a relay UE to which the remote UE is connected, an indication to transition from a connected state to an idle or inactive state; and transitioning into an idle or inactive state in response to receiving the indication.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for configuring and triggering conditional handover for UE mobility between a direct connection to the base station (Uu connection) and/or a relay connection (PC5 connection). Specifically, the conditional handover configuration may include preparing multiple candidate relay UEs for handover (e.g., from Uu connection to PC5 connection) and conditional handover execution criteria for relay selection (or reselection) for the UE. Similarly, features of the present disclosure provide techniques for conditional handover transition from a PC5 connection back to Uu connection when conditional handover execution criteria are met (e.g., sidelink signal strength between the two UEs falls below a channel condition threshold). Additionally, the techniques provided herein support for conditional handover of the relay UEs from a first base station to a second station while the relay UE is further supporting one or more remote UEs.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may obtain a common key. The UE may communicate with one or more other UEs using a lower layer groupcast key that is based at least in part on the common key, a parameter, and at least one of a group identifier or a destination identifier. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for adaptive paging in sidelink relay scenarios. An example method for adaptive paging by a remote UE generally includes connecting, via a sidelink, to a relay node connected to a network entity, sending an indication of a preferred paging mode to at least one of the relay node or the network entity, and monitoring for paging in accordance with the preferred paging mode, if the UE receives signaling configuring the UE for the preferred paging mode.

Abstract: In one aspect, a remote device generates data for transmission to a network based on an application, selects one of a set of data routing options for routing the data to the network based on policy control information; each of the set of data routing options includes routing the data via a relay device; and transmits the data to the relay device for routing the data via the selected data routing option. In another aspect, a relay establishes a protocol data unit (PDU) session with a network for relaying data received from a remote device based on policy control information, receives data from the remote device, and transmits the data to a base station coupled to the network via the PDU session. Another aspect relates to the base station operation with respect to the above aspects.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for switching between a first path and a second path when certain selection criteria are met. The first path may be a Uu connection whereby the remote UE is connected directly to a network entity. The second path may be a connection whereby the remote UE is connected to the network entity (i.e., indirectly) via a relay UE (e.g., by a PC5 connection).

Abstract: Techniques described herein provide for leader selection of a group of vehicles, based on inter-vehicle communications. According to embodiments, a host vehicle can determine it qualifies to be the leader of a potential group by comparing vehicle information of other cars in the potential group with its own vehicle information. Once the determination has been made, the host can then a request to be the group leader to the other vehicles. If the other vehicles accept, the host vehicle can initiate group formation. Otherwise, another vehicle can reject the request and send its own request to become the group leader, reinitiating group leader negotiation until a group leader is determined.
