Abstract: A method for allocating resources for device-to-device transmission between two or more user equipment (UEs) includes transmitting, from a first UE to a second UE, a resource allocation configuration for device-to-device communications. A resource request for a device-to-device transmission is received from the second UE. In response to the resource request, a resource for the device-to-device transmission is selected at the first UE. A resource grant is transmitted to the second UE. The resource grant identifies the selected resource. A device-to-device transmission is received from the second UE over the selected resource.

Abstract: A device, serving cell and method of switching between modes of operation for the device in a cellular network comprises receiving a service via a connection with the serving cell. A condition indicative of deterioration in network service and an absence of a suitable neighbor cell are detected. In response, discovery of relay nodes is initiated. When a suitable relay node is discovered, a mechanism to switch to receiving the service via the suitable relay node is initiated. The service may be a mission critical push-to-talk over Long Term Evolution service. The relay node may be user equipment acting as a user equipment-to-network relay node. When the device is in an RCC_CONNECTED state, the mechanism to switch includes sending a relay mode preference indication to the serving cell, receiving a connection release message from the serving cell, releasing the serving cell connection, and establishing a sidelink connection with the relay.

Abstract: In some examples, a system receives first information corresponding to an intelligent transport system (ITS) station, and detects, based on the first information corresponding to the ITS station and based on second information provided by a cellular network relating to the ITS station, misbehavior of the ITS station, the second information includes location information acquired by the cellular network.

Abstract: In some examples, a device includes a processor configured to compare a current transport status of the asset to a predicted transport status of the asset at each respective time instance of a plurality of time instances, and in response to determining that the current transport status does not differ from the predicted transport status by greater than a specified threshold, skip sending a report relating to the current transport status to a service over a network at the respective time instance of the plurality of time instances.

Abstract: Method and systems for managing a communication link. One or more indicators of an expected service interruption associated with a communication link is determined. The communication link may be a link between a relay and a communication target and/or a link between the relay and a user equipment (UE). In response, the UE initiates one or more actions to reduce or avoid the expected service interruption.

Abstract: In some examples, a device sends first information to a service, the first information comprising location information of the wireless device, and receives, from the service, assistance information that is based on the first information. The device performs initial access of a wireless access network using the assistance information to achieve power saving at the wireless device, and transmits second information to the service over the wireless access network node.

Abstract: In some implementations, a Medium Access Control (MAC) method for LTE in Unlicensed (LTE-U) includes transmitting at least one of a Clear to Send (CTS) message or a Request to Send (RTS) message on an LTE-U Secondary Cell (SCell) carrier. The at least one of the CTS message or the RTS message may include a duration field. The duration field may indicate a transmission time of a transmission on a packet data shared channel on the LTE-U SCell carrier. An evolved NodeB (eNB) transmits a scheduling grant for the transmission on the packet data shared channel on the LTE-U SCell carrier.

Abstract: A wireless access network node transmits scheduling information assigning an uplink resource for a user equipment (UE), detects whether the UE has not transmitted using the assigned uplink resource, determines, based on the detecting, that the UE has failed a Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) check at the UE, and further schedules and assigns an uplink resource for the UE.

Abstract: In some implementations, a power saving method includes receiving, from a base station, at a user equipment (UE), a Discontinuous Reception (DRX) configuration. The UE determines a WLAN listen interval that includes at least one Traffic Indication Map (TIM) period and at least one TIM transmission period. The UE selects, based on the DRX configuration, a TIM message to monitor within an associated TIM transmission period from the at least one TIM transmission period in the listen interval. The UE determines a WLAN wakeup time that overlaps the associated TIM transmission period. During the associated TIM transmission periods, the UE receives, from an Access Point (AP), the selected TIM message.
