1. A first user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
at least one memory; and
at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the first UE to:
perform a channel access procedure for initiating a channel occupancy for sidelink transmission;
transmit sidelink control information (SCI) to a second UE within the channel occupancy, wherein the SCI includes an indicator indicating a remaining duration of the channel occupancy and using a number of bits in the SCI, the number of bits corresponds to a number of elements in a set of possible values of the remaining duration of the channel occupancy; and
transmit sidelink data associated with the SCI to the second UE without exceeding the remaining duration of the channel occupancy.
