1. A user equipment (UE), comprising:
a transceiver; and
a processor operably coupled to the transceiver, the processor configured to:
operate with partial sensing;
operate in a resource pool configured for the partial sensing;
trigger a sidelink (SL) resource selection in a slot n;
select Y candidate slots for the SL resource selection, wherein a first of the selected Y candidate slots is a slot t′y0SL; and
perform, in a sensing window, a contiguous partial sensing (CPS), wherein:
the sensing window is in contiguous slots within the resource pool relative to the slot t′y0SL,
an end of the sensing window is Tproc,0SL+Tproc,1SL before the slot t′y0SL,
Tproc,0SL is a sensing processing latency time, and
Tproc,1SL is a resource selection processing time.
