摘要:
A method for operating a user equipment (UE) in a UE group including at least two UEs includes receiving, from a communications controller, network resources information about an allocation of a first set of network resources to the UE group and a transmission indication, where the transmission indication indicates that the UE is selected to transmit in a second set of network resources that is a subset of the first set of network resources. The method further includes transmitting, to other UEs in the UE group utilizing a direct mobile communications (DMC) link associated with the communications controller, a first message including a control indicator in a first subset of the second set of network resources, the control indicator indicating scheduling information for a second subset of the second set of network resources.
摘要:
An embodiment of a system for operating a communications controller for a group of user equipments engaged in a direct mobile communication (“DMC”) link in a wireless communications system is provided. The communications controller is configured to allocate a set of subframes to the group of UEs for the DMC link, signal the set of allocated subframes to the group of UEs, and signal a length of a sliding window to the group of UEs. In an embodiment, ACK/NACK feedback for communications over the DMC link is aggregated according to the length of the sliding window, and the ACK/NACK feedback for the communications over the DMC link is determined independently from ACK/NACK feedback for cellular transmission between the communication controller and the group of UEs. In an embodiment, the length of the sliding window is a number of subframes.

摘要:
A method of establishing a direct mobile communications (DMC) link between a first user equipment (UE) and a second UE, where at least one of the first UE and the second UE is communicating on a first cellular link includes requesting that at least one of the first UE and the second UE participate in an evaluation procedure to determine a potential quality of a DMC link proposed between the first UE and the second UE. The method also includes receiving a report from at least one of the first UE and the second UE indicating the potential quality of the DMC link proposed between the first UE and the second UE according to the evaluation procedure. The method further includes establishing the DMC link between the first UE and the second UE if the potential quality of the DMC link exceeds a predetermined threshold.

A system and method for multi-cell access are provided. A method includes transmitting at least one control channel to a communications device. The at least one control channel includes control information, and the transmitting is performed by at least one cell in a subset of a cooperating set. The method also includes transmitting to the communications device based on control information transmitted to the communications device, or receiving from the communications device based on control information transmitted to the communications device. The transmitting is performed by at least one other cell in the cooperating set, or the receiving is performed by the at least one other cell in the cooperating set.
