Claim 24:
25. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon, that when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
establish sidelink channels for communications between a user equipment (UE) and one or more other UEs, wherein the UE and the one or more other UEs form a virtual UE group;
exchange information with the one or more other UEs in the virtual UE group to enhance communications between at least one of the UE or the one or more other UEs of the virtual UE group and a network entity, wherein the information exchanged depends on at least one of a joint reception mechanism or joint transmission mechanism used by the virtual UE group, wherein the information exchanged comprises at least one of in-phase and quadrature (I-Q) samples taken for downlink transmissions, logarithmic likelihood ratios (LLRs) for the downlink transmissions, or decoded bits generated for downlink transmissions; and
communicate with the network entity based, at least in part, on the exchanged information.
