Systems and methods for resource sensing for sidelink operation

Abstract:

According to certain embodiments, a method by a wireless device is provided for resource sensing. The method includes acquiring, from a network node, an indication of resources associated with a first resource pool. The first resource pool is for use in an exceptional communication with another device. A triggering event associated with signalling from the network node is identified. Based on the triggering event, a need for the exceptional communication with the other device is determined. At least one resource is selected from the first resource pool, and a message is transmitted using the at least one resource selected from the first resource pool.
