Abstract
A wireless device may receive, from a base station, a radio resource control (RRC) message. The RRC message may comprise a list of sidelink configurations for sidelink communications in which each of the sidelink configurations may comprise a communication range threshold for sidelink transmissions. The wireless device may transmit, to one or more second wireless devices, sidelink control information (SCI). The SCI may comprise a first index, in the list of the sidelink configurations, indicating one of the communication range thresholds of the sidelink transmissions, and a zone identifier indicating a geographic location of the first wireless device.
