Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A user equipment (UE), comprising:
a processor configured to identify configuration information to enable inter-UE co-ordination for a sidelink (SL) resource pool; and
a transceiver operably coupled to the processor, the transceiver configured to:
transmit, to a target UE, a signal to trigger transmission of inter-UE co-ordination information, wherein the inter-UE co-ordination information is based on sensing at the target UE, and
receive the inter-UE co-ordination information from the target UE,

wherein the inter-UE co-ordination information indicates a plurality of resources including at least one of preferred resources and non-preferred resources,
wherein the preferred resources are resources available for SL transmission and the non-preferred resources are resources not available for SL transmission,
wherein the processor is further configured to:
determine a set of candidate SL resources based on the inter-UE co-ordination information, and
randomly select a SL resource within the determined set, and

wherein the transceiver is further configured to transmit a SL channel on the SL resource.
