Abstract: A Device to Device (D2D) user equipment (UE) is configured to support synchronization in a D2D network. The D2D UE includes an antenna configured to communicate via a D2D communication. The D2D UE also includes processing circuitry configured to enter a communication Mode 2 when certain conditions are met. The certain conditions include: when a first timer (T310) for detecting radio link failure is running, a second timer (T311) for initiating the connection reestablishment is running, or a third timer (T301) for requesting connection reestablishment is running. In communication Mode 2, the D2D UE, on its own, selects resources from resource pool(s) to transmit D2D data and D2D control information. The processing circuitry further configured to exit the communication Mode 2 and enter a communication Mode 1 when the certain condition is no longer met. In communication Mode 1, the D2D UE uses resources configured by another station.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for CSI reporting mechanisms are provided. A user equipment (UE) includes a transceiver and a processor operably connected to the transceiver. The transceiver is configured to receive information indicating a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) resource configuration, uplink-related downlink control information (DCI), and a CSI-RS associated with a selected CSI-RS resource in a same subframe as the uplink-related DCI. The processor configured to determine, in response to a CSI request included in the uplink-related DCI, an aperiodic CSI in reference to the CSI-RS. The transceiver is further configured to report the aperiodic CSI by transmitting the aperiodic CSI on an uplink channel.

Abstract: A relay node capable of supporting wireless backhaul communication includes a controller configured to identify a first timing of a backhaul downlink (DL) transmission and a second timing of an access uplink (UL) transmission to be substantially aligned, and a transceiver configured to receive at least one first symbol in the backhaul DL transmission from an base station (BS), and receive at least second symbol in an access UL transmission from a user equipment (UE). The controller is further configured to substantially align a third timing of a backhaul uplink (UL) transmission and a fourth timing of an access downlink (DL) transmission, wherein the transceiver is further configured to transmit at least third symbol in a backhaul uplink (UL) transmission to the BS, and transmit at least fourth symbol in the access DL transmission to the UE.

Abstract: A method for a coordinated transmission in a wireless communication system. The method includes processing feedback information from multiple transmit points (TPs) operating in license assisted access (LAA) cells, generating scheduling information for the coordinated transmission by the multiple TPs to a user equipment (UE) in accordance with the feedback information, transmitting the scheduling information to the multiple TPs, and receiving the feedback information from the multiple TPs.

Abstract: Drive testing for network optimization has been supplemented by the use of information measuring radio conditions collected by mobile terminals (i.e. UEs). To improve the user experience of multicast and broadcast services based on cellular telecommunications networks, such as MBMS and eMBMS, a mechanism is described that adapts UE-based reporting of measurement reports to multicast and broadcast services.

Abstract: Adaptation of measurement procedures for cell detection and association provide more accurate and frequent reports for use by the network, to enhance cell association. A user equipment receives, within a configured measurement bandwidth, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing symbols comprising discovery reference signals (DRS). For subframes in which the DRS are transmitted, a discovery reference signal received quality (D-RSRQ) is determined from the DRS within the received symbols as a ratio of discovery reference signal received power (D-RSRP) to carrier discovery received signal strength indicator (D-RSSI), where the D-RSRP is measured in symbols containing DRS resource elements and the D-RSSI is measured in all symbols in subframes containing the DRS. For a UE configured to also measure common reference signals, non-DRS measurements are suspended upon deactivation of a secondary cell, and measurement timing of the DRS during a deactivation period is based on a measurement timing parameter.
