- the terminal can configure SL-COT based on SemiStaticChannelAccessConfigSL-U.
- Other terminals can identify a COT initiated based on SemiStaticChannelAccessConfigSL-U.

If the LBT operation is successful, a COT may be initiated in the unlicensed band, and the SL communication may be performed within the COT. "The LBT operation is successful" may mean "the result of the LBT operation is an idle state.”
- LBT in NR-U can be either type 1 LBT operation for COT start operation, etc., or type 2 LBT operation for transmission within a shared COT, etc. In the case of type 2, there can be type 2A/2B/2C LBT operations depending on the transmission gap.
- This LBT procedure may be a mechanism for a base station or a terminal to perform CCA.
- CCA may use energy detection (ED) to detect the presence or absence of other signals on the channel (i.e., channel idle).

If the energy detected during the CCA period is lower than a certain threshold (energy detection (ED) threshold), the device may access the channel during the COT.

- the PSCCH symbol may mean a symbol used for PSCCH transmission.
- the PSSCH symbol may mean a symbol used for PSSCH transmission.
- the DMRS symbol may mean a symbol used for DMRS transmission.
- the symbol of PSCCH can be three symbols.
- the base station or terminal fails LBT in the symbol of AGC of slot N-1 or the symbol before it, the base station or terminal cannot transmit PSCCH and PSSCH in the corresponding slot.
- the base station or terminal may succeed in LBT in a specific symbol of slot N-1 later.
- the base station or terminal can transmit PSCCH and PSSCH in slot N including the next AGC symbol. Accordingly, transmission delay per slot may occur. Therefore, in order to prevent this delay, the SL-U can set two starting symbols in the slot for PSCCH and PSSCH transmission.
- the sidelink system can determine the positions of the two starting symbols, the setting method of the positions/operations in the starting symbol (e.g., whether to set AGC), etc.
- the base station or terminal may require AGC operation for transmitting/receiving PSCCH and PSSCH in the sidelink.
- the Release-17 specification may allow the first symbol of a slot to be used for the AGC operation. Therefore, the LBT operation in SL-U may be performed immediately before the AGC operation.
- the base station or terminal may transmit PSCCH and PSSCH after the AGC operation following the LBT operation.
- a base station or a terminal may transmit PSCCH and PSSCH in slot N after an LBT operation in a specific symbol of slot N-1 (for example, the last symbol (i.e., a guard symbol) and after an AGC operation in the first symbol of slot N) in order to transmit PSCCH and PSSCH in slot N.
- transmitting PSCCH and PSSCH after the AGC operation can be interpreted as transmitting PSCCH and PSSCH from the symbol immediately following the AGC symbol.
- the interval for LBT operation can be set within one symbol (e.g., 71.4 us) based on SCS (subcarrier spacing) 15 kHz, considering the CCA slot duration.
- the interval for LBT operation can be applied in a similar way in other SCS, considering the CCA slot duration.
- the interval for LBT operation can be set within two or more symbols to secure time equivalent to the CCA slot duration.
- the base station or terminal may fail LBT in the symbol of AGC of slot N-1 (i.e., symbol #0 among symbols #0 to #13) or the previous symbol. In this case, even if the base station or terminal succeeds in LBT in symbol #1, it cannot transmit PSCCH and PSSCH in slot N-1. Therefore, the base station or terminal may require a second start symbol.
- the base station or terminal can set all symbols in the slot as start symbols.
- the receiving terminal may have to perform BD (blind detection) for receiving PSCCH in all symbols. Therefore, the base station or terminal can pre-configure two start symbols to specific positions.
- the first start symbol may be a specific symbol that is not previously indicated by the upper layer.
- the first start symbol may be the first symbol of the slot.
- the first start symbol may be a symbol indicated by the upper layer signaling.
- the parameter of the start symbol may be expressed as, for example, sl-StartSymbol. Accordingly, sl-StartSymbol may be one of symbol #0 to symbol #(K-1). In this case, the symbol immediately following the first start symbol may be used for the AGC operation.
- the number of symbols in the slot may be N, and K may be smaller than N. N and K may be integers.
- the first start symbol overlaps with a symbol transmitting an RS (reference signal) symbol

- the base station or the terminal may perform an AGC operation in the earliest symbol after which no RS symbol is transmitted.
- sl-StartSymbol may be the symbol immediately following the symbol on which LBT succeeded.
- sl-StartSymbol may be the symbol following a specific number of symbols from the symbol on which LBT succeeded, considering processing time.
- the K value may be set for each resource pool in consideration of the priority of the PSCCH and PSSCH to be transmitted, or the packet delay budget (PDB).
- the K value may be set to be small when the priority is high or the PDB is short.
- the maximum value of K may be set in consideration of the position of the second start symbol. As an example, the maximum K value may be 7.
- the second start symbol if no specific symbol is indicated by higher layer signaling (i.e., default case), it can be fixed to a specific symbol within the slot.
- the second start symbol if no specific symbol is indicated by higher layer signaling (i.e., default case), it can be indicated to a specific symbol within the slot.
- the second start symbol can be fixed to symbol #4.
- a 1-bit indicator can be used to indicate that there is no second start symbol if it is 0. Conversely, if the 1-bit indicator is 1, it can indicate the existence and location of the second start symbol.
- an indicator may be used to indicate the positions of the second start symbol by setting two or more positions.
- the positions of the second start symbol may be, for example, symbol #4 and symbol #7.

- the M value can be set for each resource pool by considering the priority of the PSCCH and PSSCH to be transmitted, the packet delay budget, etc.
- the maximum value of M can be set by considering the position of the first start symbol of the next slot. For example, the maximum M value can be 9.
- Figure 11 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a second embodiment of a slot structure in a side link.
- a slot may include 14 symbols (e.g., 14 SL symbols), and the remaining symbols except for the AGC symbol and the guide symbol in the slot may be used for PSCCH transmission, PSSCH transmission, and DMRS transmission. If the value of M is greater than a specific value (e.g., 9), since there is less space for mapping the PSCCH/PSSCH on the time axis, the AGC operation may not be performed in the first symbol of the next slot (e.g., slot N), and the PSCCH/PSSCH may be transmitted.
- a specific value e.g. 9

- the first start symbol is symbol #4
- the second start symbol may be preset to symbol #8, which is the fourth symbol after the first start symbol.
- Y may be a positive integer.
- the symbol immediately following the second start symbol can be used for AGC operation. If the symbol overlaps with a symbol in which an RS symbol is transmitted, SL-U transmission in the slot may not be permitted. In this case, PSCCH and PSSCH can be transmitted in the first start symbol of the next slot. Alternatively, the AGC operation can be performed in the earliest symbol after which no RS symbol is transmitted.
- the interval for LBT operation can be set within one symbol (for example, 71.4 us) based on SCS 15 kHz when considering the CCA slot duration, and can be applied in a similar manner to other SCS. For example, when the SCS is large, the interval for LBT operation can be set within two or more symbols in order to secure a time equivalent to the CCA slot duration.
- the setting of the start symbol in the SL-U described above can be applied differently for each SCS. Considering the duration of one slot, the two start symbol slot structure can be applied only when the SCS is 15 kHz, and only the one start symbol slot structure can be applied when the SCS is 30 kHz or higher.
- the interval for LBT operation in the sidelink system may be set in time units (or another unit) rather than symbol units, and in such a case, the above operations may be applied in a similar manner.
- (resource) information regarding the operation and configuration of the section for the LBT operation of the sidelink system described above may be configured differently (or independently) (by the network/base station) specifically, based on the resource pool (and/or service type/priority and/or power saving operation and/or (service) QoS parameters (e.g., reliability, latency) and/or terminal type (e.g., V-UE or P-UE)), or may be implicitly determined based on parameters configured in advance.
- QoS parameters e.g., reliability, latency
- terminal type e.g., V-UE or P-UE
- whether or not to apply each rule in the above description may be preset (resource pool/service specific) by the base station/network based on the above conditions (or parameters) or combinations of the above conditions (or parameters). Or, it may be configured via PC5 RRC signaling between the base station and UE(s)/between UE(s).
