Abstract:
Various aspects of the disclosure relate to the selection and use of modulation and coding scheme (MCS) values. For example, a first MCS table may be used for a first condition and a second MCS table used for a second condition. The disclosure relates in some aspects to inter-device signaling that indicates which MCS table is to be used for communication between the devices.
Abstract:
Wireless communication systems and methods related to signaling line-of-sight (LOS) vehicle information for improving vehicle positioning accuracy are provided. A first vehicle receives, via a sensor, sensor data indicating a line-of-sight (LOS) vehicle. The first vehicle receives, via a wireless communication device, one or more ranging signals. The first vehicle determines that a first ranging signal of the one or more ranging signals is transmitted by the LOS vehicle. The first vehicle determines a position of the LOS vehicle based on at least the sensor data and the first ranging signal. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Wireless communications systems and methods related to transmission of platoon information. A first vehicle in a vehicle platoon obtains a first radio resource spanning a frequency channel and a time period for synchronous transmission with at least a second vehicle in the vehicle platoon. The first vehicle transmits, synchronously with at least the second vehicle, information associated with the vehicle platoon in the frequency channel and the time period of the first radio resource. The first vehicle may obtain the first radio resource by requesting a transmission request from a wireless communication device and receiving a transmission grant indicating the first radio resource. Alternatively, the first vehicle may obtain the first radio resource by selecting the first radio resource based on at least one of a sensing report or a resource reservation received from the second vehicle.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may be an eNB. The apparatus may be configured to receive a first message from a UE. The first message may include at least one of a first request to participate in D2D positioning or a second request to participate in D2D ranging. The apparatus may be configured to determine at least one of whether to allow the UE to participate in D2D positioning or whether to allow the UE to participate in D2D ranging based on the received first message. The apparatus may be configured to transmit a second message to the UE based on the determination.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided in connection with minimizing D2D RTS/CTS signaling overhead resource usage. In one example, a WAN entity is equipped to receive one or more channel gain values from a plurality of UEs, determine that a CID can be reused by multiple D2D links based on the received one or more channel gain values, and transmit information indicating that the CID may be reused. In another example, a UE is equipped to measure a direct power signals and an inverse power echoes on a CID used for a link formed between a third and fourth UE, and determine that the CID may potentially be reused by a link formed with a second UE for D2D RTS/CTS signaling, based at least in part on the measured direct power signals, measured the inverse power echoes, and a SIR threshold.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus receives discovery resource information from a base station, sends a discovery signal based on the discovery resource information, and receives from at least one user equipment (UE) a request for relaying with the base station based on the discovery signal. The apparatus may also receive a discovery signal from a relay, and send to the relay a request for relaying with a base station based on the discovery signal. The apparatus may further receive a discovery signal from each of a plurality of relays, determine to select one of the plurality of relays based on the discovery signal from each relay, and send to a selected relay a request for relaying with a base station based on the discovery signal when one of the plurality of relays is determined to be selected.

Abstract:
Various aspects of the disclosure relate to limits for modulation and coding scheme (MCS) values. For example, a first set of limits (e.g., minimum and maximum limits) may be used for a first MCS table and a second set of limits may be used for a second MCS table. The disclosure also relates in some aspects to inter-device signaling that indicates which minimum and maximum limits for an MCS table are to be used for communication between the devices.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may determine to use multi-cluster communications in a vehicle based communication network. The UE may identify a configuration parameter associated with the multi-cluster communications. The UE may select a cluster resource from a set of available cluster resources based on the configuration parameter. The cluster resource may include one or more clusters used for multi-cluster transmissions in the vehicle based communication network. The UE may transmit an indication of the selected cluster resource to a wireless node of the vehicle based communication network, for example, to another UE. The UE may transmit the multi-cluster transmission on the selected cluster resource.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for ranging are described. A multi-phase distributed ranging technique includes transmitting and receiving vehicle information messages during a first time interval, where the vehicle information messages include at least a vehicle identifier and resource information. The multi-phase technique further includes transmitting and receiving ranging signals during a second time interval, and determining times of arrival of received ranging signals. A centralized ranging technique includes receiving resource assignments from an access point, transmitting ranging signals according to the resource assignments, and determining times of arrival of received ranging signals.
