METHODS FOR SIMULTANEOUS SUPPORT OF AND SWITCHING BETWEEN SCHEDULED AND UE AUTONOMOUS RESOURCE SELECTION MODES FOR NR V2X SIDELINK

Abstract:

An approach is described for a user equipment (UE) to provide vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication in a 5G new radio (NR) network. The UE includes processor circuitry that mode switches between two modes of resource allocation for the V2X communication, the two modes being a first mode and a second mode, wherein the first mode is a network scheduled resource allocation mode, and the second mode is a UE autonomous resource allocation mode. The UE also includes radio front end circuitry that communicates with a second UE using a V2X sidelink in the first mode or the second mode.
