Claim 25:
26. A transmitting (Tx) apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
means for receiving, from a plurality of receiving (Rx) apparatuses, indications of channel busy ratios (CBRs) associated with the plurality of Rx apparatuses, respectively;
means for combining the CBRs to obtain a combined CBR associated with the Tx apparatus, by selecting a subset of CBRs from the CBRs associated with the plurality of Rx UEs based at least in part on one of:
signal measurements associated with each CBR in the subset of CBRs,
one or more of estimated distances or pathloss values associated with the plurality of Rx UEs, or
zone identifiers associated with the plurality of Rx UEs,

wherein the combined CBR associated with the Tx UE is based at least in part on the subset of CBRs; and
means for adjusting a resource utilization based at least in part on the combined CBR associated with the Tx apparatus.
