Claim 18:
19. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions for wireless communication, the set of instructions comprising:
one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a user equipment (UE), cause the UE to:
select, within a resource selection window corresponding to a projected used channel occupancy time (COT) region, a plurality of resources in which to transmit over an unlicensed sidelink channel, wherein the plurality of resources includes a first resource associated with a first subchannel and a second resource associated with a second subchannel non-contiguous with the first subchannel;
attempt a listen before talk (LBT) procedure to initiate a COT in which to transmit over the unlicensed sidelink channel;
move, based at least in part on the LBT procedure succeeding, the second resource to a time resource, contiguous with the first resource and associated with the first subchannel, such that the first resource and the second resource are contiguous in a time domain, wherein the second resource is moved at a medium access control layer based at least in part on a trigger at a physical layer indicating that the LBT procedure succeeded; and
transmit, over the unlicensed sidelink channel and based at least in part on moving the second resource, using the plurality of resources.
