Abstract:
Methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable mediums for wireless communication are disclosed by the present disclosure. In an example, the present disclosure includes receiving, at a second device, a Random Access Channel (RACH) preamble from a first device, the RACH preamble initiates an access procedure between the first device and the second device; selecting, by the second device, a transmission resource associated with a second RACH message based on the RACH preamble; and transmitting, by the second device, the second RACH message on the selected transmission resource to the first device.
Abstract:
The present aspects relate to device-to-device (D2D) relaying in a wireless communication system. In an aspect, a relay user equipment (UE) may receive, on a downlink channel from a network entity, at least one indication including resource allocation information for at least one of the relay UE or a remote UE. The relay UE may further transmit, on a sidelink channel to the remote UE, the resource allocation information of the remote UE. In another aspect, a remote UE may receive, on at least one sidelink channel, resource allocation information from a relay UE, the resource allocation information indicating one or more resources allocated for sidelink communication for the remote UE. The remote UE may further transmit, on one or more sidelink channels, data to the relay UE in accordance with the one or more resources allocated for sidelink communication.
Abstract:
A method, computer-readable medium, and apparatus operate to reduce or eliminate interference with one or more other communication systems having specific transmission requirements within a specific geographic area. For example, aspects operate by determining that a user equipment (UE) is in a protection zone where additional transmission requirements apply. The additional transmission requirements enable coexistence with one or more other communication systems in the protection zone. The UE may identify, based on being in the protection zone and a coexistence mode, one or more transmit emission limit requirements to be met. The UE may identify, based on being in the protection zone and the coexistence mode, one or more maximum transmit power requirements to be met. The UE may configure a transmit output power, at which the UE can meet the one or more transmit emission limit requirements and the one or more maximum transmit power requirements.
Abstract:
A cross-carrier scheduling scheme is provided. The cross-carrier scheduling scheme may improve the resource scheduling, for example, in V2X communication. The apparatus (e.g., a UE) receives a resource grant on a first carrier for a second carrier, the resource grant assigning resources for the second carrier. The apparatus communicates with a second UE via the second carrier using the granted resources. The apparatus may apply the resource grant based on at least one offset, such as an offset between the timing of the first carrier and timing of the second carrier.
Abstract:
In one aspect of the disclosure, to improve the performance of device-to-device based relay communication, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus for performing rate control based on feedback from participating UEs are provided. The apparatus may be a first UE. The first UE may receive a signal from a second UE through a device-to-device communication channel. The first UE may determine a feedback based on the received signal. The first UE may transmit the feedback to adjust transmission of the signal at the second UE. In another aspect of the disclosure, a first UE may transmit a signal to a second UE through a device-to-device communication channel. The first UE may receive a feedback of the signal. The first UE may adjust transmission of the signal based on the feedback.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communication are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, the apparatus can receive a packet at a Uu protocol stack of a first user equipment (UE), the packet intended for a base station. In addition, the apparatus can transfer the packet from the Uu protocol stack of the first UE to a PC5 interface protocol stack of the first UE. Furthermore, the apparatus can modify a header of the packet at the PC5 interface protocol stack to identify the packet as relayed uplink traffic intended for the base station from the first UE. Moreover, the apparatus can transmit the packet including the modified header to a second UE for relaying to the base station.
Abstract:
In an aspect an apparatus receives information as part of a handover command, the information received from a serving cell and including radio resource information used in a neighboring cell for V2X communications. Additionally, the apparatus transmits, from the UE, a request for V2X communication resources as part of a handover command. In another aspect an apparatus transmits a serving cell SIB to a UE, the SIB including a reception pool. The apparatus transmits a cell ID in the serving cell SIB for a neighboring cell. The reception pool is a transmission pool for the neighboring cell. The apparatus relinquishes a communication with the UE to a base station in the neighboring cell.
Abstract:
Aspects described herein generally relate to managing resource pools in wireless communications to optimize the use of those resources for reducing latency in transmissions. The described aspects include receiving, at a user equipment (UE), an alternative resource pool information signal from a network entity; selecting, at the UE, a first control resource from a first frequency portion of the control resource pool based on the alternative resource pool information signal; transmitting, at the UE, the first control resource from the first frequency portion of the control resource pool; selecting, at the UE, a second control resource from a second frequency portion of the control resource pool based on the first control resource; and transmitting, at the UE, the second control resource from the second frequency portion of the control resource pool.
Abstract:
In one aspect of this disclosure, control information and data are carried in the same subframe in order to reduce control overhead. A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may be a first UE. The first UE determines a data block to be transmitted to a second UE. The first UE determines a first resource in a subframe for carrying the data block and determines a second resource in the subframe for carrying control information associated with transmitting the data block. The first UE transmits the data block and the control information to the second UE in a device-to-device communication channel on the determined first and second resources, respectively.
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.
