Abstract: Techniques for performing peer discovery in a wireless network are described. A device may perform peer discovery to detect and identify other devices of interest. In an aspect, the device may perform peer discovery based on a hybrid mode that includes autonomous peer discovery and network-assisted peer discovery. In another aspect, the device may perform peer discovery based on a push mode and a pull mode. For the push mode, the device may occasionally transmit and/or receive a peer detection signal. For the pull mode, the device may transmit and/or receive a peer discovery request when triggered. In yet another aspect, the device may perform event-triggered peer discovery (e.g., for the pull mode). In yet another aspect, the device may perform peer discovery using both a downlink spectrum and an uplink spectrum. In yet another aspect, the device may transmit a peer detection signal in a manner to improve detection and/or increase payload.

Abstract: Techniques for performing peer discovery to enable peer-to-peer (P2P) communication are disclosed. In an aspect, a proximity detection signal used for peer discovery may be generated based on one or more physical channels and/or signals used in a wireless network. In one design, a user equipment (UE) may generate a proximity detection signal occupying at least one resource block based on a SC-FDMA modulation technique. In another design, the UE may generate a proximity detection signal occupying at least one resource block based on an OFDMA modulation technique. The UE may generate SC-FDMA symbols or OFDMA symbols in different manners for different physical channels. In yet another design, the UE may generate a proximity detection signal including a primary synchronization signal and a secondary synchronization signal. For all designs, the UE may transmit the proximity detection signal to indicate its presence and to enable other UEs to detect the UE.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for adapting uplink transmissions during wireless communications are described. The method and apparatus include transmitting, by a user equipment (UE) operating in a Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC) mode, a first transmission to a network entity in a first frequency region, the first frequency region corresponding to a reserved frequency division multiplexing (FDM) region of an uplink channel. The method and apparatus include receiving an downlink grant from the network entity in response to transmitting the first transmission, the downlink grant indicating at least a second frequency region for uplink transmissions different from the first frequency region. The method and apparatus include adapting the first frequency region to the second frequency region for transmitting one or both of a retransmission or a subsequent transmission based on the downlink grant.
