Abstract:
A method and a Public Safety ProSe-enabled User Equipment (UE) for use in a wireless communication system. The method according to one embodiment includes performing ProSe by the Public Safety ProSe-enabled UE in a cellular communication system. The Public Safety ProSe-enabled UE is a member of a ProSe Group, and at least one UE of the ProSe Group is not served by a cellular network. In addition, the method according to the embodiment is performed by checking whether the Public Safety ProSe-enabled UE is in a location served by the cellular network and transmitting first information related to the ProSe Group from the ProSe Group to the cellular network if a condition is satisfied.
