    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method in a wireless device for transmitting an uplink signalling message in a wireless communication network. The wireless device is connected to a first network element over at least a first and a second wireless link. The method comprises determining a transmission mode among alternative transmission modes for transmitting the uplink signalling message. The alternative transmission modes comprise: transmitting on the first wireless link; transmitting on the second wireless link; and transmitting on both the first and the second wireless links. The method also comprises transmitting the uplink signalling message according to the determined transmission mode. The disclosure also relates to a corresponding method performed in the network element, and to the corresponding apparatus.

    Abstract: Handling of UE capability information in a mobile telecommunications network wherein an eNodeB receives information regarding the UE capability information from the UE and stores the information. The eNodeB sends the UE capability information to the EPC, i.e., to an MME, which receives and stores the UE capability information. When the UE transits from idle to active state, does an initial attach, or when a part of the UE capabilities have changed, it sends a message to the eNodeB regarding the update. The eNodeB forwards the message to the MME, which sends a response associated with the previously stored UE capability information to the eNodeB. The eNodeB decides whether the UE capabilities stored in the MME is up-to-date based on the message from the UE and the response from the MME. If the UE holds updated UE capabilities the eNodeB can request updated UE capability information from the UE.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods and wireless terminal devices that deal with issues relating to resource allocation in sidelink radio connections. One embodiment provides a method in a first wireless terminal device. The method comprises: establishing a sidelink radio connection with a second wireless terminal device; selecting one of a plurality of resource pools for wireless communication over the sidelink radio connection, the plurality of resource pools comprising a first resource pool and a second resource pool, the first resource pool defining a first subset of available physical resources and the second resource pool defining a second subset of available physical resources; and utilizing the selected resource pool for transmitting wireless communications to the second wireless terminal device, or receiving wireless communications from the second wireless terminal device.
