The arrival of the fifth generation (5G) of mobile communications is boosting vehicular communications, an important use case addressed in the recent years. LTE introduced a sidelink radio interface through which user equipment would communicate directly with no necessary dependence on the network, named PC5. 5G has defined its own sidelink interface, NR-Sidelink, envisaged to improve PC5. This paper analyses the use of Demodulation Reference Signals (DMRS) to estimate the channel in sidelink communications. Improving several mappings proposed by the standards, the main contribution proposed in this paper is a new DMRS mapping with a better performance. The proposed Unequal Pilot Spacing (UPS) mapping can enhance the standard with a satisfactory trade-off between performance and overhead.
