POWER CONTROL FOR BEACON AND ECHO PROCEDURE FOR CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION MEASUREMENT IN SIDELINK NETWORKS

Abstract:

Aspects presented herein may improve the efficiency and/or the performance of a beacon-echo procedure between sidelink UEs. In one aspect, an apparatus receives, from a base station, at least one of a beacon power level or an echo power level for a beacon-echo procedure. The apparatus transmits, to a second UE, a beacon RS based on the beacon power level. The apparatus receives, from the second UE, an echo RS based on the beacon RS. The apparatus transmits a PSSCH using one or more parameters determined based at least in part on the echo RS.
