The transmission component 1104 may transmit communications, such as reference signals, control information, data communications, or a combination thereof, to the apparatus 1106. In some aspects, one or more other components of the apparatus 1106 may generate communications and may provide the generated communications to the transmission component 1104 for transmission to the apparatus 1106. In some aspects, the transmission component 1104 may perform signal processing on the generated communications (such as filtering, amplification, modulation, digital-to-analog conversion, multiplexing, interleaving, mapping, or encoding, among other examples), and may transmit the processed signals to the apparatus 1106. In some aspects, the transmission component 1104 may include one or more antennas, a modulator, a transmit MIMO processor, a transmit processor, a controller/processor, a memory, or a combination thereof, of the UE described above in connection with FIG. 2. In some aspects, the transmission component 1104 may be collocated with the reception component 1102 in a transceiver.

The reception component 1102 may receive, from a serving base station (BS), a sidelink resource grant that identifies one or more resources for sidelink reception from a source UE. The activation component 1108 may activate monitoring of a sidelink based at least in part on receiving the sidelink resource grant. The transmission component 1104 may monitor the one or more resources on the sidelink to receive a sidelink communication from the source UE based at least in part on activating the monitoring of the sidelink and/or monitor the sidelink for a second type of resource that is not grantable for reception operation.
