    摘要: In radio communication networks, such as the Long Term Evolution (LTE) or the LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) of the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), a user equipment (UE) may communicate with another UE via a base station. UEs may also communicate directly with each other by applying resources dedicated by the network for a device-to-device (D2D) direct communication. One part of device-to-device (D2D) communication is discovery to find other interesting peers (in general a peer can mean an application, user, service, device, etc.) in proximity. The discovery can be implemented either using the direct radio signals between the devices or it may utilise network side in the process. The same discovery process may be utilised in relation to small cells. A system information block SIB comprising information on small cell discovery and D2D is generated. Any change in the SIB is indicated in a paging message. The UE receiving the paging message is thereby requested to also receive the related SIB to apply the changed information.

    摘要: Various methods for device-to-device key management are provided. One example method includes receiving a communication mode change command requesting a mode change to device-to-device communications, and generating a local device security key based on a secret key and a base value. The local device security key may be configured for use in device-to-device communications. The example method may also include receiving a security key combination value, and deconstructing the security key combination value using the local device security key to determine a peer device security key. The peer device security key may be configured for use in device-to-device communications. Similar and related example methods and example apparatuses are also provided.
