    摘要: According to an aspect there is provided a method in a base station that is to operate in a full duplex communication mode. The method comprises sending respective device-to-device, D2D, announcement configurations to one or more first wireless devices that have data to transmit to the base station. A D2D announcement configuration configures a first wireless device to perform a respective D2D announcement. The method also comprises sending a D2D announcement monitoring configuration to one or more second wireless devices that the base station has data to transmit to. A D2D announcement monitoring configuration configures a second wireless device to monitor for a D2D announcement transmitted by one or more first wireless devices. Next, the method comprises determining information relating to receipt of D2D announcements by the one or more second wireless devices according to the D2D announcement monitoring configuration, and identifying, based on the determined information, an uplink, UL, wireless device from the one or more first wireless devices and a downlink, DL, wireless device from the one or more second wireless devices for a full duplex communication in which the UL wireless device is to transmit data to the base station and the base station is to transmit data to the DL wireless device.
