CROSS REFERENCE 
     The present application for patent claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/929,661 by FAKOORIAN et al., entitled “RESOURCE CONFIGURATION AND RESERVATION FOR SIDELINK COMMUNICATIONS,” filed Nov. 1, 2019, assigned to the assignee hereof, and expressly incorporated by reference herein. 
    
    
     BACKGROUND 
     The following relates generally to wireless communications and more specifically to resource configuration and reservation for sidelink communications. 
     Wireless communications systems are widely deployed to provide various types of communication content such as voice, video, packet data, messaging, broadcast, and so on. These systems may be capable of supporting communication with multiple users by sharing the available system resources (e.g., time, frequency, and power). Examples of such multiple-access systems include fourth generation (4G) systems such as Long-Term Evolution (LTE) systems, LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) systems, or LTE-A Pro systems, and fifth generation (5G) systems which may be referred to as New Radio (NR) systems. These systems may employ technologies such as code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), frequency division multiple access (FDMA), orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA), or discrete Fourier transform spread orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DFT-S-OFDM). 
     A wireless multiple-access communications system may include a number of base stations or network access nodes, each simultaneously supporting communication for multiple communication devices, which may be otherwise known as user equipment (UEs). Some wireless communications systems may support sidelink communications between UEs over a shared radio frequency spectrum. In such systems, a UE may contend for access to the shared radio frequency spectrum to transmit sidelink data to another UE, and it may be challenging for the UE to gain access to the shared radio frequency spectrum. Improved techniques for facilitating sidelink communications over a shared radio frequency spectrum may be desirable. 
     SUMMARY 
     The present disclosure relates to methods, systems, devices, and apparatuses that support resource configuration and reservation for sidelink communications. Generally, the described techniques provide for efficiently selecting resources for sidelink communications in a shared spectrum while allowing other UEs a chance to gain access to the shared spectrum. In one aspect, a UE may transmit sidelink data to another UE in accordance with a frequency hopping pattern to randomize interference and improve throughput. For instance, the UE may transmit the sidelink data on a first set of interleaved frequency resources in a first time interval and a second, different set of interleaved frequency resources in a second time interval. In another aspect, a UE may rely on hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback from other UEs to determine when reserved resources are released, and the UE may use the released resources for sidelink communications. For instance, when a first UE receives HARQ feedback indicating that a transmission from a second UE was successfully received by a third UE, the first UE may use resources reserved by the second UE (e.g., for a subsequent retransmission) to transmit sidelink data to a fourth UE. 
     A method of wireless communication implemented by a first UE is described. The method may include identifying a resource pool configuration indicating resources in a shared radio frequency spectrum band available to the first UE for sidelink communications, the resources comprising a plurality of contiguous time intervals, identifying a frequency hopping pattern including a first set of interleaved frequency resources for transmitting sidelink data in a first time interval of the set of contiguous time intervals and a second set of interleaved frequency resources for transmitting the sidelink data in a second time interval of the set of contiguous time intervals, and transmitting, to a second UE, the sidelink data on the first set of interleaved frequency resources in the first time interval and the second set of interleaved frequency resources in the second time interval based on the frequency hopping pattern. 
     An apparatus for wireless communication at a first UE is described. The apparatus may include a processor, memory coupled with the processor, and instructions stored in the memory. The instructions may be executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to identify a resource pool configuration indicating resources in a shared radio frequency spectrum band available to the first UE for sidelink communications, the resources comprising a plurality of contiguous time intervals, identify a frequency hopping pattern including a first set of interleaved frequency resources for transmitting sidelink data in a first time interval of the set of contiguous time intervals and a second set of interleaved frequency resources for transmitting the sidelink data in a second time interval of the set of contiguous time intervals, and transmit, to a second UE, the sidelink data on the first set of interleaved frequency resources in the first time interval and the second set of interleaved frequency resources in the second time interval based on the frequency hopping pattern. 
     Another apparatus for wireless communication at a first UE is described. The apparatus may include means for identifying a resource pool configuration indicating resources in a shared radio frequency spectrum band available to the first UE for sidelink communications, the resources comprising a plurality of contiguous time intervals, identifying a frequency hopping pattern including a first set of interleaved frequency resources for transmitting sidelink data in a first time interval of the set of contiguous time intervals and a second set of interleaved frequency resources for transmitting the sidelink data in a second time interval of the set of contiguous time intervals, and transmitting, to a second UE, the sidelink data on the first set of interleaved frequency resources in the first time interval and the second set of interleaved frequency resources in the second time interval based on the frequency hopping pattern. 
     A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code for wireless communication at a first UE is described. The code may include instructions executable by a processor to identify a resource pool configuration indicating resources in a shared radio frequency spectrum band available to the first UE for sidelink communications, the resources comprising a plurality of contiguous time intervals, identify a frequency hopping pattern including a first set of interleaved frequency resources for transmitting sidelink data in a first time interval of the set of contiguous time intervals and a second set of interleaved frequency resources for transmitting the sidelink data in a second time interval of the set of contiguous time intervals, and transmit, to a second UE, the sidelink data on the first set of interleaved frequency resources in the first time interval and the second set of interleaved frequency resources in the second time interval based on the frequency hopping pattern. 
     Some aspects of the method, apparatuses, and non-transitory computer-readable medium described herein may further include operations, features, means, or instructions for performing a listen-before-talk procedure to gain access to the shared radio frequency spectrum band for a channel occupancy time to transmit the sidelink data to the second UE, the channel occupancy time spanning at least the first time interval and the second time interval of the plurality of contiguous time intervals. Some aspects of the method, apparatuses, and non-transitory computer-readable medium described herein may further include operations, features, means, or instructions for receiving control information indicating at least one set of interleaved frequency resources that is available for each time interval of the plurality of contiguous time intervals, wherein identifying the frequency hopping pattern comprising the first set of interleaved frequency resources in the first time interval and the second set of interleaved frequency resources in the second time interval is based at least in part on receiving the control information. 
     Some aspects of the method, apparatuses, and non-transitory computer-readable medium described herein may further include operations, features, means, or instructions for transmitting, in the first time interval, an indication of the first set of interleaved frequency resources used for transmitting the sidelink data in the first time interval, and transmitting, in the second time interval, an indication of the second set of interleaved frequency resources used for transmitting the sidelink data in the second time interval.

     Some aspects of the method, apparatuses, and non-transitory computer-readable medium described herein may further include operations, features, means, or instructions for transmitting an indication of gaps in the first time interval, the second time interval, or both, allocated for other UEs to perform listen-before-talk procedures to gain access to the shared radio frequency spectrum band. In some aspects of the method, apparatuses, and non-transitory computer-readable medium described herein, respective sets of interleaved frequency resources available to the first UE for sidelink communications in each time interval of the set of contiguous time intervals may be based on a subcarrier spacing of the time interval, a sidelink identification (ID) of the first UE, a resource pool ID of the respective set of interleaved frequency resources, one or more parameters associated with group hopping of frequency resources, or a combination thereof. 
     A method of wireless communication implemented by a first UE is described. The method may include identifying that a second UE has reserved a shared radio frequency spectrum band for sidelink communications in a channel occupancy time, the channel occupancy time spanning a set of contiguous time intervals, receiving a feedback message transmitted by a third UE acknowledging receipt of a transmission of first sidelink data from the second UE, identifying resources reserved for a retransmission of the first sidelink data from the second UE to the third UE, initiating a listen-before-talk procedure to gain access to the identified resources for at least one interval of the channel occupancy time, and transmitting, based on a result of the listen-before-talk procedure, second sidelink data to a fourth UE on the identified resources based on receiving the feedback message.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     Some wireless communications systems may support sidelink communications between user equipment (UEs) in a shared spectrum. In such systems, a pool of resources (e.g., a time and frequency resource pool (TFRP)) may be configured for sidelink communications in the shared spectrum, and a UE may perform a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure to gain access to the resources for a sidelink transmission to another UE. In some cases, a wide range of categories of sidelink communications may be supported (e.g., for internet of things (IoT) applications, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications, etc.), and the number of UEs attempting to gain access to the TFRP in the shared spectrum may be high. In such cases, techniques for improving the quality of sidelink transmissions may be desirable to limit the number of times a UE has to acquire or reacquire access to the shared spectrum to transmit or retransmit sidelink data. In addition, techniques for releasing reserved, unused resources may be desirable to allow more UEs to gain access to the shared spectrum. 
     As described herein, UEs in a wireless communications system may support techniques for efficiently selecting resources for sidelink communications in a shared spectrum while allowing other UEs a chance to gain access to the shared spectrum. In one aspect, a UE may transmit sidelink data to another UE in accordance with a frequency hopping pattern to randomize interference and improve throughput. As a result, an original transmission from the UE may be likely to be received successfully, and the UE may avoid reacquiring access to the shared spectrum for a retransmission. In another aspect, a UE may rely on hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback from other UEs to determine when reserved resources are released, and the UE may use the released resources for sidelink communications. For instance, when a first UE receives HARQ feedback indicating that a transmission from a second UE was successfully received by a third UE, the first UE may use resources reserved by the second UE (e.g., for a subsequent retransmission) to transmit sidelink data to a fourth UE (e.g., the second UE may release the reserved, unused resources). 
     Aspects of the disclosure introduced above are described below in the context of a wireless communications system. Aspects of processes and signaling exchanges that support resource configuration and reservation for sidelink communications are then described. Aspects of the disclosure are further illustrated by and described with reference to apparatus diagrams, system diagrams, and flowcharts that relate to resource configuration and reservation for sidelink communications. 
       FIG.  1    illustrates aspects of a wireless communications system  100  that supports resource configuration and reservation for sidelink communications in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure. The wireless communications system  100  includes base stations  105 , UEs  115 , and a core network  130 . According to some aspects, the wireless communications system  100  may be a Long-Term Evolution (LTE) network, an LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) network, an LTE-A Pro network, or a New Radio (NR) network. In some cases, wireless communications system  100  may support enhanced broadband communications, ultra-reliable (e.g., mission critical) communications, low latency communications, or communications with low-cost and low-complexity devices. 
     Base stations  105  may wirelessly communicate with UEs  115  via one or more base station antennas. Base stations  105  described herein may include or may be referred to by those skilled in the art as a base transceiver station, a radio base station, an access point, a radio transceiver, a NodeB, an eNodeB (eNB), a next-generation NodeB or giga-NodeB (either of which may be referred to as a gNB), a Home NodeB, a Home eNodeB, or some other suitable terminology. Wireless communications system  100  may include base stations  105  of different types (e.g., macro or small cell base stations). The UEs  115  described herein may be able to communicate with various types of base stations  105  and network equipment including macro eNBs, small cell eNBs, gNBs, relay base stations, and the like. 
     Each base station  105  may be associated with a particular geographic coverage area  110  in which communications with various UEs  115  is supported. Each base station  105  may provide communication coverage for a respective geographic coverage area  110  via communication links  125 , and communication links  125  between a base station  105  and a UE  115  may utilize one or more carriers. Communication links  125  shown in wireless communications system  100  may include uplink transmissions from a UE  115  to a base station  105  (e.g., in a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) or a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH)), or downlink transmissions from a base station  105  to a UE  115  (e.g., in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) or a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH)). Downlink transmissions may also be called forward link transmissions while uplink transmissions may also be called reverse link transmissions. 
     The geographic coverage area  110  for a base station  105  may be divided into sectors making up a portion of the geographic coverage area  110 , and each sector may be associated with a cell. According to some aspects, each base station  105  may provide communication coverage for a macro cell, a small cell, a hot spot, or other types of cells, or various combinations thereof. According to some aspects, a base station  105  may be movable and therefore provide communication coverage for a moving geographic coverage area  110 . According to some aspects, different geographic coverage areas  110  associated with different technologies may overlap, and overlapping geographic coverage areas  110  associated with different technologies may be supported by the same base station  105  or by different base stations  105 . The wireless communications system  100  may include a heterogeneous LTE/LTE-A/LTE-A Pro or NR network in which different types of base stations  105  provide coverage for various geographic coverage areas  110 . 
     The term “cell” may refer to a logical communication entity used for communication with a base station  105  (e.g., over a carrier), and may be associated with an identifier for distinguishing neighboring cells (e.g., a physical cell identifier (PCID), a virtual cell identifier (VCID)) operating via the same or a different carrier. According to some aspects, a carrier may support multiple cells, and different cells may be configured according to different protocol types (e.g., machine-type communication (MTC), narrowband Internet-of-Things (NB-IoT), enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), or others) that may provide access for different types of devices. In some cases, the term “cell” may refer to a portion of a geographic coverage area  110  (e.g., a sector) over which the logical entity operates. 
     The term “carrier” may refer to a set of radio frequency spectrum resources having a defined physical layer structure for supporting communications over a communication link  125 . According to some aspects, a carrier of a communication link  125  may include a portion of a radio frequency spectrum band that is operated according to physical layer channels for a given radio access technology. Each physical layer channel may carry user data, control information, or other signaling. A carrier may be associated with a pre-defined frequency channel (e.g., an evolved universal mobile telecommunication system terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA) absolute radio frequency channel number (EARFCN)) and may be positioned according to a channel raster for discovery by UEs  115 . Carriers may be downlink or uplink (e.g., in an FDD mode), or be configured to carry downlink and uplink communications (e.g., in a TDD mode). According to some aspects, signal waveforms transmitted over a carrier may be made up of multiple sub-carriers (e.g., using multi-carrier modulation (MCM) techniques such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) or discrete Fourier transform spread OFDM (DFT-S-OFDM)). 
     UEs  115  may be dispersed throughout the wireless communications system  100 , and each UE  115  may be stationary or mobile. A UE  115  may also be referred to as a mobile device, a wireless device, a remote device, a handheld device, or a subscriber device, or some other suitable terminology, where the “device” may also be referred to as a unit, a station, a terminal, or a client. A UE  115  may also be a personal electronic device such as a cellular phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a tablet computer, a laptop computer, or a personal computer. According to some aspects, a UE  115  may also refer to a wireless local loop (WLL) station, an Internet of Things (IoT) device, an Internet of Everything (IoE) device, or an MTC device, or the like, which may be implemented in various articles such as appliances, vehicles, meters, or the like. 
     Some UEs  115 , such as MTC or IoT devices, may be low cost or low complexity devices, and may provide for automated communication between machines (e.g., via Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication). M2M communication or MTC may refer to data communication technologies that allow devices to communicate with one another or a base station  105  without human intervention. According to some aspects, M2M communication or MTC may include communications from devices that integrate sensors or meters to measure or capture information and relay that information to a central server or application program that can make use of the information or present the information to humans interacting with the program or application. Some UEs  115  may be designed to collect information or enable automated behavior of machines. Examples of applications for MTC devices include smart metering, inventory monitoring, water level monitoring, equipment monitoring, healthcare monitoring, wildlife monitoring, weather and geological event monitoring, fleet management and tracking, remote security sensing, physical access control, and transaction-based business charging. 
     Some UEs  115  may be configured to employ operating modes that reduce power consumption, such as half-duplex communications (e.g., a mode that supports one-way communication via transmission or reception, but not transmission and reception simultaneously). According to some aspects, half-duplex communications may be performed at a reduced peak rate. Other power conservation techniques for UEs  115  include entering a power saving “deep sleep” mode when not engaging in active communications, or operating over a limited bandwidth (e.g., according to narrowband communications). In some cases, UEs  115  may be designed to support critical functions (e.g., mission critical functions), and a wireless communications system  100  may be configured to provide ultra-reliable communications for these functions. 
     In some cases, a UE  115  may also be able to communicate directly with other UEs  115  over a sidelink connection (e.g., using a peer-to-peer (P2P) or device-to-device (D2D) protocol). Such communications may be referred to as D2D or sidelink communications. One or more of a group of UEs  115  utilizing sidelink communications may be within the geographic coverage area  110  of a base station  105 . In some cases, other UEs  115  in such a group may be outside the geographic coverage area  110  of a base station  105  or be otherwise unable to receive transmissions from a base station  105 . In some cases, groups of UEs  115  communicating via sidelink communications may utilize a one-to-many (1:M) system in which each UE  115  transmits to every other UE  115  in the group. 
     In some cases, a base station  105  facilitates the scheduling of resources for sidelink communications. In other cases, sidelink communications are carried out between UEs  115  without the involvement of a base station  105 . According to some aspects, sidelink communications may include discovery expression transmissions on a physical sidelink discovery channel (PSDCH) (e.g., to allow proximal devices to discover each other&#39;s presence). According to some aspects, sidelink communications may include control information transmissions on a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH). According to some aspects, sidelink communications may include data transmissions on a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH). According to some aspects, sidelink communications may include feedback transmissions on a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH). 
     According to some aspects, sidelink communications may include LTE V2X or cellular V2X (C-V2X), NR V2X or C-V2X, and NR sidelink. In NR-V2X, two modes may be defined for resource allocation. In a first mode (e.g., mode-1), a base station  105  may determine the resources used by a sidelink transmit UE  115  for a sidelink transmission (e.g., on a PSCCH, PSSCH, or PSFCH). In a second mode (e.g., mode-2), a sidelink transmit UE (e.g., not the base station  105 ) may determine the resources to use for sidelink communications. Sensing and resource selection and reselection related procedures may be supported for the second mode. The sensing procedure may be defined as decoding the sidelink control information (SCI) from other UEs and or performing sidelink measurements. Decoding SCIs in the sensing procedure may provide at least some information on sidelink resources indicated by the UE  115  transmitting the SCI. 
     NR-V2X may support an initial transmission of a transport block from a sidelink UE  115  without reservation, based on sensing and a resource selection procedure. NR-V2X may support the reservation of a sidelink resource for an initial transmission of a transport block at least by an SCI associated with a different transport block, based on sensing and a resource selection procedure. In some cases, NR-V2X mode-2 may support resource reservation for feedback-based PSSCH retransmissions by signaling associated with a prior transmission of the same transport block (e.g., where the feedback may impact subsequent sensing and resource selection procedures). From the perspective of a transmit sidelink UE  115 , the use of HARQ feedback for the release of unused resources may be supported (e.g., with no additional signaling being defined for the purpose of the release of unused resources by the transmit UE  115 ). Additionally, in mode-2, the SCI payload may indicate the sub-channels and slots used by a UE  115  or reserved by a UE  115  for PSSCH transmissions or retransmissions. 
     Base stations  105  may communicate with the core network  130  and with one another. According to some aspects, base stations  105  may interface with the core network  130  through backhaul links  132  (e.g., via an S1, N2, N3, or other interface). Base stations  105  may communicate with one another over backhaul links  134  (e.g., via an X2, Xn, or other interface) either directly (e.g., directly between base stations  105 ) or indirectly (e.g., via core network  130 ). 
     The core network  130  may provide user authentication, access authorization, tracking, Internet Protocol (IP) connectivity, and other access, routing, or mobility functions. The core network  130  may be an evolved packet core (EPC), which may include at least one mobility management entity (MME), at least one serving gateway (S-GW), and at least one Packet Data Network (PDN) gateway (P-GW). The MME may manage non-access stratum (e.g., control plane) functions such as mobility, authentication, and bearer management for UEs  115  served by base stations  105  associated with the EPC. User IP packets may be transferred through the S-GW, which itself may be connected to the P-GW. The P-GW may provide IP address allocation as well as other functions. The P-GW may be connected to the network operators IP services. The operators IP services may include access to the Internet, Intranet(s), an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), or a Packet-Switched (PS) Streaming Service. 
     At least some of the network devices, such as a base station  105 , may include subcomponents such as an access network entity, which may be an example of an access node controller (ANC). Each access network entity may communicate with UEs  115  through a number of other access network transmission entities, which may be referred to as a radio head, a smart radio head, or a transmission/reception point (TRP). In some configurations, various functions of each access network entity or base station  105  may be distributed across various network devices (e.g., radio heads and access network controllers) or consolidated into a single network device (e.g., a base station  105 ). 
     Wireless communications system  100  may operate using one or more frequency bands, typically in the range of 300 megahertz (MHz) to 300 gigahertz (GHz). Generally, the region from 300 MHz to 3 GHz is known as the ultra-high frequency (UHF) region or decimeter band, since the wavelengths range from approximately one decimeter to one meter in length. UHF waves may be blocked or redirected by buildings and environmental features. However, the waves may penetrate structures sufficiently for a macro cell to provide service to UEs  115  located indoors. Transmission of UHF waves may be associated with smaller antennas and shorter range (e.g., less than 100 km) compared to transmission using the smaller frequencies and longer waves of the high frequency (HF) or very high frequency (VHF) portion of the spectrum below 300 MHz. Wireless communications system  100  may also operate in a super high frequency (SHF) region using frequency bands from 3 GHz to 30 GHz, also known as the centimeter band. The SHF region includes bands such as the 5 GHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) bands, which may be used opportunistically by devices that may be capable of tolerating interference from other users. 
     Wireless communications system  100  may also operate in an extremely high frequency (EHF) region of the spectrum (e.g., from 30 GHz to 300 GHz), also known as the millimeter band. According to some aspects, wireless communications system  100  may support millimeter wave (mmW) communications between UEs  115  and base stations  105 , and EHF antennas of the respective devices may be even smaller and more closely spaced than UHF antennas. In some cases, this may facilitate use of antenna arrays within a UE  115 . However, the propagation of EHF transmissions may be subject to even greater atmospheric attenuation and shorter range than SHF or UHF transmissions. Techniques disclosed herein may be employed across transmissions that use one or more different frequency regions, and designated use of bands across these frequency regions may differ by country or regulating body. 
     In some cases, wireless communications system  100  may utilize both unshared (e.g., licensed) and shared (e.g., unlicensed) radio frequency spectrum bands. According to some aspects, wireless communications system  100  may employ License Assisted Access (LAA), LTE-Unlicensed (LTE-U) radio access technology, or NR technology in an unlicensed band such as the 5 GHz ISM band. When operating in unlicensed radio frequency spectrum bands, wireless devices such as base stations  105  and UEs  115  may employ LBT procedures to ensure a frequency channel (e.g., an LBT subchannel or a frequency band that is accessible via an LBT procedure) is clear before transmitting data. In some cases, operations in unlicensed bands may be based on a carrier aggregation configuration in conjunction with component carriers operating in a licensed band (e.g., LAA). Operations in unlicensed spectrum may include downlink transmissions, uplink transmissions, sidelink transmissions, peer-to-peer transmissions, or a combination of these. Duplexing in unlicensed spectrum may be based on frequency division duplexing (FDD), time division duplexing (TDD), or a combination of both. 
     In some implementations, there may be different categories of LBT procedures, including category 1 LBT (i.e., no LBT), category 2 LBT (i.e., LBT including one-time channel sensing for a fixed period without a back-off period), category 3 LBT (i.e., LBT with a random (or other) back-off period and a fixed sized contention window), and category 4 LBT (i.e., LBT with a random (or other) back-off period and a variable sized contention window). In some cases, a category 2 LBT procedure may be referred to as a one-time LBT procedure where a UE  115  may perform channel sensing for a defined duration (e.g., 25 μs). Further, a category 4 LBT procedure may be referred to as a fairness-based LBT procedure for performing channel sensing with a backoff, where the backoff may be used to prevent a UE  115  from accessing a channel immediately after detecting that the channel is clear. 
     In some cases, wireless communications system  100  may be a packet-based network that operates according to a layered protocol stack. In the user plane, communications at the bearer or Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) layer may be IP-based. A Radio Link Control (RLC) layer may perform packet segmentation and reassembly to communicate over logical channels. A Medium Access Control (MAC) layer may perform priority handling and multiplexing of logical channels into transport channels. The MAC layer may also use HARQ to provide retransmission at the MAC layer to improve link efficiency. In the control plane, the Radio Resource Control (RRC) protocol layer may provide establishment, configuration, and maintenance of an RRC connection between a UE  115  and a base station  105  or core network  130  supporting radio bearers for user plane data. At the Physical layer, transport channels may be mapped to physical channels. 
     In some cases, UEs  115  and base stations  105  may support retransmissions of data to increase the likelihood that data is received successfully. HARQ feedback is one technique of increasing the likelihood that data is received correctly over a communication link  125 . HARQ feedback may include an acknowledgement (ACK) indicating that data was received and decoded successfully or a negative acknowledgement (NACK) indicating that data was not received or decoded successfully. HARQ may include a combination of error detection (e.g., using a cyclic redundancy check (CRC)), forward error correction (FEC), and retransmission (e.g., automatic repeat request (ARQ)). HARQ may improve throughput at the MAC layer in poor radio conditions (e.g., signal-to-noise conditions). In some cases, a wireless device may support same-slot HARQ feedback, where the device may provide HARQ feedback in a specific slot for data received in a previous symbol in the slot. In other cases, the device may provide HARQ feedback in a subsequent slot, or according to some other time interval. 
     Time intervals in LTE or NR may be expressed in multiples of a basic time unit, which may refer to a sampling period of T s = 1/30,720,000 seconds. Time intervals of a communications resource may be organized according to radio frames each having a duration of 10 milliseconds (ms), where the frame period may be expressed as T f =307,200 T s . The radio frames may be identified by a system frame number (SFN) ranging from 0 to 1023. Each frame may include 10 subframes numbered from 0 to 9, and each subframe may have a duration of 1 ms. A subframe may be further divided into 2 slots each having a duration of 0.5 ms, and each slot may contain 6 or 7 modulation symbol periods (e.g., depending on the length of the cyclic prefix prepended to each symbol period). Excluding the cyclic prefix, each symbol period may contain 2048 sampling periods. 
     In some cases, a subframe may be the smallest scheduling unit of the wireless communications system  100  and may be referred to as a transmission time interval (TTI). In other cases, a smallest scheduling unit of the wireless communications system  100  may be shorter than a subframe or may be dynamically selected (e.g., in bursts of shortened TTIs (sTTIs) or in selected component carriers using sTTIs). In some wireless communications systems, a slot may further be divided into multiple mini-slots containing one or more symbols. In some instances, a symbol of a mini-slot or a mini-slot may be the smallest unit of scheduling. Each symbol may vary in duration depending on the subcarrier spacing or frequency band of operation. Further, some wireless communications systems may implement slot aggregation in which multiple slots or mini-slots are aggregated together and used for communication between a UE  115  and a base station  105 . 
     As mentioned above, wireless communications system  100  may support sidelink communications between UEs  115  (e.g., introduced in LTE), where a UE  115  may send data to another UE  115  without tunneling through a base station  105  or core network  130 . In some cases, sidelink communications (e.g., D2D or C-V2X) may be performed over an unshared spectrum (e.g., dedicated spectrum or licensed spectrum), where channel access may be straightforward since a base station  105  may have ownership of the spectrum. In other cases, sidelink communications may be performed over a shared radio frequency spectrum (e.g., in NR unlicensed (NR-U) applications). The shared radio frequency spectrum or shared spectrum may be a spectrum that is unlicensed, licensed to multiple operators, or licensed to a single operation with opportunistic access by other devices (e.g., a licensed radio frequency spectrum, an unlicensed radio frequency spectrum, or a combination of licensed and unlicensed radio frequency spectrum). 
     NR-U may be targeted to work on the 5 GHz band or the 6 GHz band, where there may be well-defined channel access rules while the channel is shared with another operator or even with other radio access technologies (RATs). However, in NR-U, a base station  105  may not have full ownership or control of the channel, and UEs  115  may contend for access to the channel. NR-U may be used for sidelink operation by allowing a UE  115  to transmit to other UEs  115  over a shared spectrum band to offload traffic using a “free” spectrum. In NR-V2X, a resource pool may be defined for sidelink communications. A resource pool may be a set of time and frequency resources that can be used for sidelink transmission or reception. From the point of view of a UE  115 , a resource pool may be inside the bandwidth allocated for the UE  115  and within a sidelink bandwidth part (BWP) and may have a single numerology. The time-domain resources in a resource pool may be non-contiguous (e.g., for NR sidelink in a licensed band), and multiple resource pools may be preconfigured to a UE  115  in a carrier. 
       FIG.  2    illustrates aspects of non-contiguous time-domain resources  200  used for sidelink communications in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure. According to aspects illustrated in  FIG.  2   , a UE  115  may be scheduled to transmit sidelink data to another UE  115  on a first resource set  205 - a , a second resource set  205 - b , and a third resource set  205 - c . If, however, the UE  115  determines to transmit the sidelink data in the shared spectrum, the UE  115  may have to gain access to the shared spectrum multiple (e.g., three) times to transmit the sidelink data on the different, non-contiguous resource sets. In some cases, after giving up access to the shared spectrum (e.g., after transmitting sidelink data on the first resource set  205 - a ), the UE  115  may fail to regain access to the shared spectrum (e.g., to transmit on the second resource set  205 - b  or the third resource set  205 - c ). Accordingly, the UE  115  may not be able to finish transmitting the sidelink data to the other UE  115 , resulting in loss of throughput. 
     In wireless communications system  100 , to improve throughput, the time-domain resources in a resource pool configured for sidelink communications in a shared spectrum may be contiguous. As such, a UE  115  may not have to reacquire access to the shared spectrum multiple times to transmit sidelink data to another UE  115 . In addition, to give other UEs  115  a chance to access the resource pool, a UE  115  may transmit on interleaved frequency resources in each time interval of a set of contiguous time intervals in the resource pool (e.g., such that the other UEs  115  may access frequency resources not used in the set of contiguous time intervals). In some cases, however, the use of the same frequency resources to transmit sidelink data in multiple time intervals may limit transmit diversity, and the throughput gains achieved by transmitting in contiguous time intervals may be compromised. Further, in some wireless communications systems, a UE  115  may be allowed to reserve resources for retransmissions, and the UE  115  may or may not use the reserved resources. In such systems, the reservation of unused resources may be wasteful and may restrict other UEs  115  from accessing a shared spectrum for sidelink communications. As described herein, UEs  115  in wireless communications system  100  may support techniques for efficiently selecting resources for sidelink communications in a shared spectrum while allowing other UEs  115  a chance to gain access to the shared spectrum. 
       FIG.  3    illustrates aspects of a wireless communications system  300  that supports resource configuration and reservation for sidelink communications in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure. The wireless communications system  300  includes a base station  105 - a , which may be an example of a base station  105  described with reference to  FIGS.  1  and  2   . The wireless communications system  300  also includes a UE  115 - a  and a UE  115 - b , which may be examples of UEs  115  described with reference to  FIGS.  1  and  2   . Base station  105 - a  may provide communications coverage for geographic coverage area  110 - a , which may be an example of a geographic area  110  described with reference to  FIG.  1   . The wireless communications system  300  may implement aspects of the wireless communications system  100 . According to some aspects, UE  115 - a  and UE  115 - b  in wireless communications system  300  may support techniques for efficiently selecting resources for sidelink communications in a shared spectrum while allowing other UEs  115  a chance to gain access to the shared spectrum. 
     According to aspects illustrated in  FIG.  3   , the UE  115 - a  may receive an indication of (or may otherwise identify) a TFRP configuration that indicates contiguous time intervals (or grids) allocated for sidelink communications in a shared spectrum. The time intervals may start at fixed and common points (e.g., common to all UEs  115 , such as at the beginning of every four time slots) and may span multiple time slots. Each time interval may be configured with small gaps within which other UEs  115  may perform LBT procedures to gain access to the shared spectrum. Before UE  115 - a  transmits sidelink data to UE  115 - b  in the shared spectrum, the base station  105 - a  may transmit downlink control information (DCI) or the UE  115 - a  may transmit SCI indicating the remaining usable interlaces for other UEs  115 , a time when channel access will end, etc. Then, as described herein, rather than transmitting the sidelink data on the same interlaced frequency resources across multiple time intervals, UE  115 - a  may select interlaced frequency resources that frequency hop across time intervals to transmit the sidelink data to UE  115 - b  to randomize interference and improve throughput. 
       FIG.  4    illustrates aspects of interleaved frequency resources  400  used for sidelink communications in contiguous time-domain resources in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure. The terms interleaved frequency resources and interlaced frequency resources may be used interchangeably herein and may refer to non-contiguous frequency resources arranged in a comb-like structure (e.g., evenly spaced, non-contiguous frequency resources). The use of contiguous time-domain resources for sidelink communications may be described as a case of resource reservation for transmissions or retransmissions of the same transport block or different transport blocks with no gap between the transmissions or retransmissions (e.g., or having gaps smaller than a minimum gap for LBT access by a different device). According to aspects illustrated in  FIG.  4   , UE  115 - a  may gain access to a shared spectrum for a channel occupancy time (COT), and the UE  115 - a  may transmit sidelink data  415  to UE  115 - b  in the COT. In particular, the UE  115 - a  may transmit the sidelink data  415  on a first set of interleaved (i.e., interlaced) frequency resources in a first time interval  405 - a , a second set of interleaved (i.e., interlaced) frequency resources in a second time interval  405 - b , and a third set of interleaved (i.e., interlaced) frequency resources in a third time interval  405 - c.    
     Thus, the different sets of interleaved frequency resources used to transmit sidelink data  415  may frequency hop across multiple time intervals  405 . The set of interleaved frequency resources selected in each time interval  405  may be associated with an interlace index and may be one set of a number of different sets of interleaved frequency resources each corresponding to a different interlace index. In some cases, the UE  115 - a  may transmit SCI  410 , or the base station  105 - a  may transmit DCI  410 , indicating the resources used by UE  115 - a  to transmit the sidelink data  415  to UE  115 - b . Thus, other UEs  115  may decode the SCI or DCI  410  to determine the resources being used by UE  115 - a  and to identify unused resources  420  available for sidelink communications. In other cases, the resources used by UE  115 - a  to transmit the sidelink data  415  may be preconfigured, and other UEs  115  may identify the unused resources  420  based on one or more factors as described in further detail below. 
     According to some aspects, COT sharing may be done per time interval  405 , and the SCI or DCI  410  in each time interval  405  may indicate the available or unused time and frequency resources in the time interval  405  (e.g., unused resources  420 ). For instance, the SCI or DCI  410  in the first time interval  405 - a  may indicate the first set of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - a  in one or more time slots of the first time interval  405 - a , and other UEs  115  may determine the unused resources  420  in the first time interval  405 - a  based on decoding the SCI or DCI  410  in the first time interval  405 - a . For these aspects, because the other UEs  115  may have to decode the SCI or DCI  410  at the beginning of a time interval  405  before transmitting in the time interval  405 , COT sharing may not be maximized. That is, the other UEs  115  may stop transmitting in a COT and may not rejoin the COT in a time interval  405  until the UE  115  has decoded the DCI or SCI  410  in the time interval  405 . 
     According to some aspects, COT sharing may be done across time intervals  405 , and the SCI or DCI  410  in each time interval  405  may indicate the available or unused time and frequency resources in a next time interval  405  following the time interval  405  (e.g., unused resources  420 ). For instance, the SCI or DCI  410  in the first time interval  405 - a  may indicate the second set of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - a  in one or more time slots of the second time interval  405 - b , and other UEs  115  may determine the unused resources  420  in the second time interval  405 - b  based on decoding the SCI or DCI  410  in the first time interval  405 - a . Thus, within each time grid, the SCI or DCI  410  may indicate unused interlaces for the next time grid. In some cases, the SCI or DCI  410  in a previous time interval  405  may also indicate when the gaps in a next time interval  405  are budgeted for other UEs  115  to perform LBT procedures to gain access to the unused resources  420  in the next time interval  405 . In such cases, the UE  115 - a  may stop transmitting in the next time interval  405  during the gaps to prevent mutual blocking (e.g., to avoid blocking the other UEs  115  from accessing the unused resources  420 ). As such, the short gaps may allow UE  115 - a  to share a COT with other UEs  115  (e.g., on interlace indices or frequency resources that are not used by UE  115 - a ). 
     According to some aspects, COT sharing may be done per time interval  405  or across time intervals  405 , and the SCI or DCI  410  may indicate the frequency hopping pattern used by UE  115 - a  to transmit the sidelink data  415  across the multiple time intervals  405 . For instance, the SCI or DCI  410  in the first, second, or third time interval  405  or in a previous time interval  405  may indicate the frequency hopping pattern corresponding to the first, second, and third sets of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - a  to transmit the sidelink data  415  in the first, second, and third time intervals  405 . That is, the SCI or DCI  410  may indicate a virtual interlace index of a set of virtual interlace indices, where each virtual interlace index indicates a set of interlace indices used by UE  115 - a  across multiple time intervals  405 , and each interlace index identifies a set of interleaved frequency resources in a respective time interval  405 . 
     According to some aspects, the frequency hopping pattern may be preconfigured (e.g., the group hopping or sequence hopping from the uplink demodulation reference signal (DMRS) hopping pattern may be adapted for sidelink transmissions). In any case, regardless of whether the frequency hopping pattern is preconfigured or indicated in SCI or DCI  410 , each interlace index within each time interval  405  indicated by the frequency hopping pattern may depend on one or more factors. For instance, each interlace index within each time interval  405  that corresponds to the set of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - a  in the time interval  405  may be a function of one or more factors, including a subcarrier spacing of the time interval  405 , a sidelink ID of UE  115 - a , a pool ID associated with the resources used by UE  115 - a , or some higher layer parameters associated with group hopping (e.g., received in higher layer signaling used to enable or disable group hopping). If the frequency hopping pattern is preconfigured, other UEs  115  may determine the frequency hopping pattern used by UE  115 - a  to transmit the sidelink data  415  based on the one or more factors. 
     Once another UE  115  receives the SCI or DCI  410  indicating the set of interleaved frequency resources or otherwise identifies the set of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - a  to transmit sidelink data  415  to UE  115 - b , the other UE  115  may identify the unused resources  420  and may contend for access to the unused resources  420  for sidelink communications. In particular, the other UE  115  may identify a different set of interleaved frequency resources in a time interval  405  from the set of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - a , where the different set of interleaved frequency resources may correspond to a different frequency hopping pattern from the frequency hopping pattern used by UE  115 - a . The other UE  115  may then transmit sidelink data across one or more time intervals  405  based on the different frequency hopping pattern (e.g., including at least transmitting the sidelink data on the different set of interleaved frequency resources in the time interval  405 ). 
     In addition to the techniques described above, in some cases, it may be appropriate for a UE  115  to release reserved, unused resources to allow other UEs  115  to gain access to a shared spectrum. In particular, because a UE  115  may reserve resources for a retransmission after an initial transmission (e.g., using signaling associated with the initial transmission), and the UE  115  may receive feedback indicating that the initial transmission was received successfully before the retransmission, the reservation of the resources for the retransmission may be underutilized. 
     As described herein, a UE  115  may be configured to release resources reserved for a retransmission of a transport block after receiving feedback indicating that a previous transmission of the transport block was successfully received. In addition, other UEs  115  may be configured to use the released resources after receiving the feedback indicating that the initial transmission of the transport block from the UE  115  was successfully received. That is, the other UEs  115  may rely on HARQ feedback to determine when reserved resources are released, and the other UEs  115  may use the released resources for sidelink communications. In some aspects, when a first UE  115  receives a feedback message indicating that a transmission from a second UE  115  was successfully received by a third UE  115 , the first UE  115  may use resources reserved by the second UE  115  (e.g., for a subsequent retransmission) to transmit sidelink data to a fourth UE  115  (e.g., the second UE  115  may release the reserved, unused resources). Thus, for reservation of a COT with feedback-based PSSCH transmissions or retransmissions, an ACK sent by the third UE  115  (e.g., a receive UE  115 ) in a PSFCH may indicate to the first UE  115  (e.g., and other UEs  115 ) that the reservation is done and the rest of the COT can be shared. 
     In some cases, the SCI or DCI transmitted by the second UE  115  before a transmission of sidelink data may indicate whether the first UE  115  (e.g., and other UEs  115 ) may monitor a PSFCH to determine whether to access resources reserved for a retransmission of the data. That is, the SCI or DCI may indicate whether PSFCH may be used as an indication for COT sharing. If the SCI or DCI indicates that PSFCH may be used as an indication for COT sharing, the first UE  115  (e.g., and other UEs  115 ) may access the resources reserved for a retransmission by the second UE  115  after receiving an ACK on the PSFCH. In particular, other transmit UEs  115  may receive an indication (e.g., configured by SCI or DCI of the second UE  115 ) of when the UEs  115  are eligible to join or access resources reserved for a retransmission. In some aspects, the other transmit UEs  115  may be eligible to join or access resources reserved for a retransmission (e.g., using a category 2 LBT procedure) one slot after the slot (e.g., slot n) in which an ACK is received (e.g., from the third UE  115 ) or soon after receiving the ACK on the PSFCH. 
       FIG.  5    illustrates aspects of a process flow  500  that supports resource configuration and reservation for sidelink communications in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure. The process flow  500  illustrates aspects of techniques performed by a UE  115 - c , a UE  115 - d , and a UE  115 - e , which may be examples of a UE  115  described with reference to  FIGS.  1 - 4   . In  FIG.  5   , the UE  115 - c  may receive (or otherwise identify) a resource pool configuration indicating resources in a shared radio frequency spectrum band available to the UE  115 - c  for sidelink communications, where the resources include contiguous time intervals. 
     At  505 , UE  115 - c  may perform an LBT procedure to gain access to the shared spectrum band for a COT to transmit sidelink data to UE  115 - e . The COT may span one or more contiguous time intervals of the contiguous time intervals indicated by the resource pool configuration. At  510 , UE  115 - c  may identify a frequency hopping pattern including a first set of interleaved frequency resources for transmitting the sidelink data in a first time interval and a second set of interleaved frequency resources for transmitting the sidelink data in a second time interval. That is, if the LBT procedure is successful, the UE  115 - c  may reserve resources for transmitting the sidelink data based on the frequency hopping pattern. 
     At  515 , UE  115 - c  may transmit SCI in the first time interval with the sidelink data on at least a subset of the first set of interleaved frequency resources. The SCI may indicate the first set of interleaved frequency resources being used by the UE  115 - c  to transmit the sidelink data to the UE  115 - e . According to some aspects, when sidelink communications are scheduled by a base station  105  (e.g., rather than by the UE  115 - c ), the base station  105  may transmit DCI to UE  115 - c , UE  115 - d , and UE  115 - e  indicating the first set of interleaved frequency resources being used by the UE  115 - c  to transmit the sidelink data to the UE  115 - e  (e.g., the UE  115 - c  may not transmit the SCI). At  520 , the UE  115 - c  may then transmit the sidelink data to UE  115 - e  in the first time interval on the first set of interleaved frequency resources. 
     At  525 , UE  115 - c  may transmit SCI in the second time interval with the sidelink data on at least a subset of the second set of interleaved frequency resources. The SCI may indicate the second set of interleaved frequency resources being used by the UE  115 - c  to transmit the sidelink data to the UE  115 - e . According to some aspects, when sidelink communications are scheduled by a base station  105  (e.g., rather than by the UE  115 - c ), the base station  105  may transmit DCI to UE  115 - c , UE  115 - d , and UE  115 - e  indicating the second set of interleaved frequency resources being used by the UE  115 - c  to transmit the sidelink data to the UE  115 - e  (e.g., the UE  115 - c  may not transmit the SCI). At  530 , the UE  115 - c  may then transmit the sidelink data to UE  115 - e  in the second time interval on the second set of interleaved frequency resources. In some cases, UE  115 - c  may also transmit an indication of gaps in the first time interval, the second time interval, or both allocated for other UEs (e.g., UE  115 - d ) to perform LBT procedures to gain access to the shared spectrum. 
     As described above, the UE  115 - c  may transmit the SCI and the sidelink data to UE  115 - e , but the resources used to transmit the SCI and the sidelink data may be monitored by UE  115 - d . That is, the UE  115 - d  may monitor the pool of resources configured for sidelink communications in a shared spectrum. Thus, when the UE  115 - d  identifies data to transmit to another UE  115 , the UE  115 - d  may decode the SCI to identify if other UEs  115  have reserved resources of the shared spectrum band for sidelink communications. Alternatively, the UE  115 - d  may decode DCI to identify if other UEs  115  have reserved resources of the shared spectrum band for sidelink communications (e.g., if sidelink communications are scheduled by a base station  105 ). Although  FIG.  5    illustrates that the UE  115 - d  may receive SCI from the UE  115 - c  to identify resources being used by the UE  115 - c  for sidelink communications, it is to be understood that the UE  115 - d  may receive and decode DCI to identify resources being used by the UE  115 - c  for sidelink communications. Thus, SCI and DCI may be used interchangeably in some aspects described herein. 
     According to aspects illustrated in  FIG.  5   , UE  115 - d  may identify, from the SCI, that UE  115 - c  has reserved the shared spectrum for sidelink communications in the COT. UE  115 - d  may then identify, from the SCI, at least one set of interleaved frequency resources that is available for a time interval. That is, the SCI at  515  or the SCI at  525  may indicate the at least one set of interleaved frequency resources that is available for the time interval. The at least one set of interleaved frequency resources may be one of multiple sets of interleaved frequency resources that frequency hop between time intervals based on respective frequency hopping patterns. UE  115 - d  may perform an LBT procedure (e.g., category 2 LBT) for the available set of interleaved frequency resources and may transmit to another UE  115  over the set of interleaved frequency resources if the LBT procedure is successful (not shown). 
     According to some aspects, the SCI in the first time interval may indicate the first set of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - c  to transmit the sidelink data in the first time interval, and the SCI in the second time interval may indicate the second set of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - c  to transmit the sidelink data in the second time interval. In such cases, UE  115 - d  may identify a set of interleaved frequency resources that is available for the first time interval after decoding the SCI received at the beginning of the first time interval, and UE  115 - d  may identify a set of interleaved frequency resources that is available for the second time interval after decoding the SCI received at the beginning of the second time interval. 
     According to some aspects, the SCI in a previous time interval may indicate the first set of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - c  to transmit the sidelink data in the first time interval, and the SCI in the first time interval may indicate the second set of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - c  to transmit the sidelink data in the second time interval. In such cases, UE  115 - d  may identify a set of interleaved frequency resources that is available for the first time interval after decoding the SCI received in the previous time interval (e.g., in advance of the first time interval), and UE  115 - d  may identify a set of interleaved frequency resources that is available for the second time interval after decoding the SCI received in the first time interval (e.g., in advance of the second time interval). 
     According to some aspects, the SCI in the first time interval, the second time interval, or a previous time interval may indicate a frequency hopping pattern used by UE  115 - c  to transmit the sidelink data on the first set of interleaved frequency resources in the first time interval and the second set of interleaved frequency resources in the second time interval. In such cases, UE  115 - d  may identify a set of interleaved frequency resources that is available for the first time interval after decoding the SCI received in the first time interval or SCI received in a previous time interval (e.g., indicating the frequency hopping pattern used by UE  115 - c ), and UE  115 - d  may identify a set of interleaved resources that is available for the second time interval after decoding the SCI received in the second time interval or SCI received in a previous time interval (e.g., indicating the frequency hopping pattern used by UE  115 - c ). 
     According to some aspects, the first set of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - c  in the first time interval and the second set of interleaved frequency resources used by UE  115 - c  in the second time interval may be preconfigured (e.g., in the resource pool configuration). In some aspects, respective sets of interleaved frequency resources in each time interval may be based one or more factors, such as a subcarrier spacing of the time interval, a sidelink ID of UE  115 - c , a resource pool ID of the respective set of interleaved frequency resources, or one or more parameters associated with group hopping of frequency resources. In such cases, UE  115 - d  may identify a set of interleaved frequency resources that is available for the first time interval after determining that UE  115 - c  is using the first set of interleaved frequency resources in the first time interval based on the one or more factors, and UE  115 - d  may identify a set of interleaved frequency resources that is available for the second time interval after determining that UE  115 - c  is using the second set of interleaved frequency resources in the second time interval based on the one or more factors. 
     The set of interleaved frequency resources available in the first time interval may be different from (e.g., non-overlapping with) the first set of interleaved frequency resources, and the set of interleaved frequency resources available in the second time interval may be different from (e.g., non-overlapping with) the second set of interleaved frequency resources. Thus, when UE  115 - d  identifies the available set of interleaved frequency resources in the first time interval, UE  115 - d  may perform an LBT procedure to gain access to the available set of interleaved frequency resources and may transmit sidelink data to another UE  115  on the available set of interleaved frequency resources in the first time interval. Additionally, or alternatively, when UE  115 - d  identifies the available set of interleaved frequency resources in the second time interval, UE  115 - d  may perform an LBT procedure to gain access to the available set of interleaved frequency resources and may transmit sidelink data to another UE  115  on the available set of interleaved frequency resources in the second time interval (not shown). 
       FIG.  6    illustrates aspects of a process flow  600  that supports resource configuration and reservation for sidelink communications in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure. The process flow  600  illustrates aspects of techniques performed by a UE  115 - f , a UE  115 - g , a UE  115 - h , and a UE  115 - i , which may be examples of a UE  115  described with reference to  FIGS.  1 - 5   . 
     At  605 , UE  115 - g  may identify that UE  115 - h  has reserved a shared spectrum for sidelink communications in a COT spanning a set of contiguous time intervals. At  610 , UE  115 - h  may transmit sidelink data to UE  115 - i , and, at  615 , UE  115 - h  may receive an ACK for the sidelink data transmitted at  610 . As illustrated by aspects of  FIG.  6   , though UE  115 - i  may transmit the ACK to UE  115 - h , the resources used to transmit the ACK may be monitored by UE  115 - g . That is, the UE  115 - g  may monitor the pool of resources configured for sidelink communications in a shared spectrum. Thus, UE  115 - g  may receive the ACK transmitted by UE  115 - i  at  615 , and, at  620 , UE  115 - g  may identify resources reserved for a retransmission of the sidelink data transmitted at  610 . 
     At  625 , UE  115 - g  may then initiate an LBT procedure to gain access to the identified resources for at least one interval of the COT. At  630 , UE  115 - g  may transmit, based on a result of the LBT procedure, sidelink data to UE  115 - f  on the identified resources based on receiving the ACK transmitted by UE  115 - i . That is, because the sidelink data transmitted at  610  may be successfully received by the UE  115 - i , the UE  115 - h  may not use the resources reserved for retransmission of the sidelink data. Thus, the UE  115 - g  may identify the resources that are unused by the UE  115 - h , and the UE  115 - g  may transmit sidelink data to the UE  115 - f  on the resources. 
     In some cases, UE  115 - g  may receive control information (e.g., SCI from UE  115 - g  or DCI from a base station  105 ) indicating that the resources reserved for the retransmission are released by UE  115 - h  upon UE  115 - i  acknowledging receipt of the transmission of sidelink data at  610 . The control information may indicate a quantity of slots after receiving the ACK that UE  115 - g  is to wait before transmitting the sidelink data at  630  on the resources reserved for the retransmission. The control information may also indicate that UE  115 - g  is eligible to transmit using the identified resources for the at least one interval of the COT. 
       FIG.  7    shows a block diagram  700  of a device  705  that supports resource configuration and reservation for sidelink communications in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure.

At least one implementation may enable the communications manager  715  to efficiently select resources for sidelink communications in a shared spectrum while allowing other UEs a chance to gain access to the shared spectrum. Because the resources selected for sidelink communications may include interleaved frequency resources, one or more processors of the device  705  (for example, processor(s) controlling or incorporated with the communications manager  715 ) may experience power savings (e.g., increased battery life) since the UE may reliably transmit sidelink data, and the UE may avoid reacquiring access to the shared spectrum for a retransmission of the sidelink data.
