Abstract
A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a first device for performing sidelink transmission to a second device. In one embodiment, the method includes the first device being configured with a first resource pool for sidelink transmission. The method includes the first device being configured with only a first number of consecutive symbols in each slot for sidelink such that each slot in the first resource pool comprises only one subset of consecutive symbols for sidelink and the subset of each slot comprises the same first number of consecutive symbols, wherein the first number of consecutive symbols in each slot for sidelink is less than all OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) symbols in each slot. The method further includes the first device performing resource selection among a plurality of slots in the first resource pool. In addition, the method includes the first device selecting a first resource in a first slot and a second resource in a third slot. Furthermore, the method includes the first device performing sidelink transmission of a TB (Transport Block) on the first resource and performs sidelink transmission of the TB on the second reso…
