DISCOVERY INDICATION FOR SIDELINK

Abstract:

Aspects presented herein may improve sidelink discovery procedures for resource efficiency and/or power savings, where power consumption at a receiving sidelink device and/or at a transmitting sidelink device may be reduced when the devices are performing sidelink discovery procedures. In one aspect, an apparatus transmits, to a second wireless device, an indication that indicates in physical layer signaling whether a PSSCH carries a discovery message. The apparatus transmits the PSSCH (e.g., including a discovery message or a communication message) based at least in part on the indication.
