On the Feasibility of URLLC for 5G-NR V2X Sidelink Communication at 5.9 GHz

Delivering ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) services on 5G New Radio (NR) is critical for extended Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) applications. Early studies focused either on infrastructure V2X communications, or exclusively evaluating performance on mm Wave band, but never so far for V2X Sidelink communications. In this paper, we evaluate the feasibility of achieving URLLC critical requirements for 5G NR V2X Sidelink communication at the V2X 5.9 GHz band. We propose a higher 5G-NR numerology completed by a deterministic scheduler and propose an analytical V2X SL admission control algorithm to reach tight URLLC requirements.
