1. A method for wireless communication by a first user equipment (UE), comprising:
identifying, from a resource pool allocated for sidelink communications between UEs, a first plurality of resources for transmissions from the first UE to a second UE based on a set of one or more parameters shared between the first UE and the second UE;
identifying, from the resource pool, a second plurality of resources for transmissions from the second UE to the first UE based on the shared set of one or more parameters;
communicating with the second UE using the first plurality of resources and the second plurality of resources in a plurality of time slots; and
entering a low power state for at least some of the time slots in which no subchannels belong to either the first plurality of resources or second plurality of resources.
