摘要:
Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE) and methods for packet based device-to-device (D2D) discovery in an LTE network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, UE may be enabled for proximity services and may be configured to receive signaling from an enhanced node B (eNB) indicating resources allocated for D2D discovery. The UE may configure a discovery packet in accordance with a predetermined configuration to have at least a discovery payload and a cyclic-redundancy check (CRC). The discovery payload may include discovery-related content. The UE may be configured to transmit the discovery packet on at least some of the indicated resources for receipt by a receiving UE. In some embodiments, a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) may be selected to indicate a payload size and/or MCS of the discovery packet's payload.

Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE), Generation Node-B (gNB) and methods of communication are disclosed herein. The UE may attempt to decode sidelink synchronization signals (SLSSs) received on component carriers (CCs) of a carrier aggregation. In one configuration, synchronization resources for SLSS transmissions may be aligned across the CCs at subframe boundaries in time, restricted to a portion of the CCs, and restricted to a same sub-frame. The UE may, for multiple CCs, determine a priority level for the CC based on indicators in the SLSSs received on the CC. The UE may select, from the CCs on which one or more SLSSs are decoded, the CC for which the determined priority level is highest. The UE may determine a reference timing for sidelink communication based on the one or more SLSSs received on the selected CC.

Technology for a user equipment (UE) to communicate in a device to device (D2D) network is described. A temporary identification (Temp ID) can be received from an enhanced node B (eNB). A D2D discovery resource allocation can be received within a physical uplink channel from the eNB. A UE D2D discovery resource can be selected from the D2D discovery resource allocation based on the Temp ID. A D2D discovery beacon can be transmitted from the UE D2D discovery resource to enable other UEs to detect the UE.

Embodiments of a UE to operate in accordance with a device-to-device (D2D) communication mode are disclosed herein. The UE may include hardware processing circuitry to determine a synchronization reference time based on reception of signals from an eNB. The hardware processing circuitry may be further to, during a D2D communication session, transmit Multi-Time Transmission Interval Bundle Groups (MTBG) of data symbols during a first group of Data Transmission Intervals (DTI) and refrain from transmission of data symbols during a second group of DTIs. Starting times of the DTIs may be based at least partly on the synchronization reference time. The hardware processing circuitry may be further to transmit, during an in-network communication session, data symbols according to a Time Transmission Interval (TTI) reference time synchronized to the synchronization reference time.

An evolved Node-B (eNB), user equipment (UE) and method for handling overlapping resource pools for device-to-device (D2D) transmission are generally described. Resources for D2D communication with at least one other UE may be requested by the UE. The allocated pools may overlap. The overlapping pools may comprise pools of the same type or different types. The types of pools may include a discovery pool, a Scheduling Assignment (SA) pool and a Mode-2 data pool. The eNB may resolve conflict among the pools by transmitting an indication of allocation of only one of the pools or may permit the UE to determine which pool to use for transmission. The pool may be selected based on at least one of usage index, configuration identity, and usage priority. The usage index may include traffic types, mode switching, L2 control, UE classification, data rate, real-time/non-real time, latency, and Quality of Service (QoS).

Technology to support mapping for Hybrid Automatic Retransmission re-Quest (HARQ) for Carrier Aggregation (CA) is disclosed. One method can include a user equipment (UE) identifying, within a radio frame, a type 2 DownLink (DL) sub-frame within a virtual bundling window associated with a Secondary Component Carrier (SCC). The type 2 DL sub-frame can be virtually moved from a Primary Component Carrier (PCC) for HARQ-ACKnowledge (HARQ-ACK) multiplexing of the virtual bundling window. The UE can extract a Component Carrier Element (CCE) number for a first CCE used by a Physical Downlink Control CHannel (PDCCH) transmission corresponding to the type 2 DL sub-frame. The UE can determine a Physical Uplink Control CHannel (PUCCH) resource for carrying a HARQ-ACK multiplexing message based on the CCE number when a PCC window size of the PCC is greater than an SCC window size of the SCC.

Technology for reconfiguring an uplink-downlink (UL-DL) time-division duplexing (TDD) configuration timing is disclosed. In an example, a user equipment (UE) for reconfiguring an uplink-downlink (UL-DL) time-division duplexing (TDD) configuration timing can have computer circuitry configured to: Decode a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for downlink control information (DCI) including a timing indication field (TIF); and reconfigure a channel timing for a semi-static UL-DL TDD configuration using the TIF. The channel timing can include a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) timing, a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) scheduling timing, or a PUSCH HARQ timing.

An eNodeB (eNB), user equipment (UE) and method for operating in enhanced coverage (EC) modes are generally described. The UE may receive one or more physical broadcast channel (PBCH) signals, dependent on whether the UE is in a normal coverage mode or in one of the EC modes. The PBCH signal may be combined to form a combined PBCH signal, when the UE is in an EC mode, and decoded to determine one of a plurality of sets of resource regions associated different EC modes for communication with the eNB. The signal may be scrambled using a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) dependent on at least one of a signal type of the control signal and the EC mode. Paging and the system information block (SIB) signals in a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) may be decoded without decoding a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) signal associated with the PDSCH.

Technology to determine a Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest-ACKnowledge (HARQ-ACK) codebook size for inter-band time division duplex (TDD) carrier aggregation (CA) is disclosed. In an example, a user equipment (UE) operable to determine a HARQ-ACK codebook size for inter-band TDD CA can include computer circuitry configured to: Determine a HARQ bundling window for inter-band TDD CA including a number of downlink (DL) subframes using HARQ-ACK feedback; divide the HARQ bundling window into a first part and a second part; and calculate the HARQ-ACK codebook size based on the first part and the second part. The first part can include DL subframes of configured serving cells that occur no later than the DL subframe where a downlink control information (DCI) transmission for uplink scheduling on a serving cell is conveyed, and the second part can include physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) subframes occurring after the DCI transmission of the serving cells.
