Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems are provided for facilitating device-to-device connection establishment. A method may include directing broadcast of an indication of a device-to-device registration area identification in each of one or more cells forming a device-to-device registration area identified by the device-to-device registration area identification. The method may further include directing receipt of a device-to-device registration request originated by a first terminal apparatus in response to the broadcast indication. The first terminal apparatus may be located within the registration area. The method may additionally include registering the first terminal apparatus based at least in part upon the device-to-device registration request. Corresponding apparatuses and systems are also provided.

Abstract: An example method includes determining, for a protocol data unit (PDU) to be provided to a receiver entity, whether a segment of a service data unit (SDU) is to be included in the PDU and, if so, determining a position of the segment relative to the SDU. The PDU comprises a header part and a data field part. The method includes determining whether to include information in the header part in dependence on the determining whether the segment of the SDU is to be included in the PDU, and, if so, determining the content of the information in the header part in dependence on the position of the segment relative to the SDU. The method also includes providing the PDU to a receiver entity.
