Abstract:
The present disclosure enables a multicast and/or unicast transmitting UE to configure a multicast device-to-device communication and/or the unicast device-to-device communication such that UE may distinguish between the unicast and multicast device-to-device communications. The apparatus receives a unicast device-to-device communication including a destination identifier. The apparatus also receives a multicast device-to-device communication including the destination identifier. The apparatus differentiates the unicast device-to-device communication from the multicast device-to-device communication based on information provided in a header of the unicast device-to-device communication.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided that enable UEs to conserve power while involved in ProSe communication. The apparatus transmits discovery class information for ProSe communication to an A-UE and to an M-UE. The discovery class information may be transmitted from a PF in response to discovery requests. Discovery class rules may be sent from the PF as a part of service authorization. The discovery class information may be transmitted from a ProSe application server as application layer signaling. The A-UE and M-UE may use the discovery class information to select a pool of ProSe resources according to the discovery class information for transmission or monitoring of ProSe communication. The M-UE may use the information to reduce the number of resource pools of resources that are monitored for ProSe communication.
Abstract:
A method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a user equipment (UE). The apparatus may transmit, to a base station, information indicating a capability to communicate with one or more relay UEs. In addition, the apparatus may receive, from the base station, configuration information associated with a discovery procedure for identifying the one or more relay UEs. Further, the apparatus may perform the discovery procedure based on the configuration information.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may be a UE. The UE determines whether system information is received for D2D communication. In addition, the UE sets at least one flag based on the system information when the system information is received. Further, the UE determines D2D resources based on the at least one flag.
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure relate to relaying data between a PC5 remote UE and a network entity (e.g., 5G core network entity) via an inter-working function (e.g., N3IWF) over sidelink UE-to-NW relay access. In an example operation, a relay UE establishes a connection with the network entity and determines whether relay access to the network entity via an inter-working function device is supported at the relay UE. The relay UE then indicates, to the remote UE, support of the relay access to the network entity via the inter-working function device. The relay UE receives, from the remote UE, a request to relay data between the remote UE and the network entity via the inter-working function device, and thereafter, relays the data between the remote UE and the network entity via the inter-working function device based on the request. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
A method for wireless communication at a network entity and related apparatus are provided. In the method, the network entity receives, from a first user equipment (UE), a communication signal for an end-to-end (E2E) communication with a second UE. The communication signal includes identification data for identifying the second UE for the E2E communication. The network entity further routes the communication signal through the network entity, where the communication signal bypasses ground-based feeder links, and transmits, to the second UE, the communication signal to enable the E2E communication between the first UE and the second UE.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for sidelink wireless communications are described in which a user equipment (UE) engaged in sidelink communications may provide for radio link maintenance of the sidelink connection by initiating a maintenance procedure, such as a measurement procedure, when one or more conditions are detected. The one or more conditions may include a threshold time being exceeded since a data transmission via the sidelink connection, or a threshold time being exceeded since a successful reception of a sidelink transmission from another UE. An access stratum layer at the initiating UE may format a data packet in the absence of higher layer data to be transmitted via the sidelink connection to initiate the maintenance procedure.
Abstract:
An apparatus may be a UE configured to receive, from a network entity associated with a machine learning procedure, a first indication that a first set of data elements transmitted by the wireless device at a first time is categorized as misinformation and that, based on the categorization of the first set of data elements as misinformation, the network entity will temporarily exclude data from the wireless device from propagation as input for a subsequent machine learning procedure. The apparatus may further be configured to receive a second indication of a set of criteria for requesting a reevaluation of the categorization and transmit, based on meeting one or more criteria in the set of criteria, a second set of data elements to the network entity at a second time.
Abstract:
A remote UE may transmit, to at least one of a source master network entity or a target master network entity, an indication of a first entity change and a second entity change. The remote UE may receive, from the target master network entity, a measurement configuration during an RRC reestablishment procedure with the target master network entity. The remote UE may transmit, to the target master network entity during the RRC reestablishment procedure, one or more measurements corresponding to the second entity change. The remote UE may receive, from the target master network entity, a dual connectivity configuration based on the transmitted one or more measurements. The dual connectivity configuration may correspond to the first entity change and the second entity change. The remote UE may communicate with the target master network entity and the target secondary network entity based on the dual connectivity configuration.
Abstract:
A remote UE may detect one or more relay UEs for a dual connectivity configuration for communication with a first network entity and a second network entity. The dual connectivity configuration may include a primary connection with the first network entity and a secondary connection with the second network entity. The remote UE may receive, from the first network entity, a configuration for establishing the secondary connection via one of the one or more relay UEs based on a decision at the first network entity. The remote UE may establish the secondary connection via the one of the one or more relay UEs for communication with the second network entity. The remote UE may configure one or more second bearers for the secondary connection via the one of the one or more relay UEs. The one or more second bearers may support data transmission via the secondary connection.
