Abstract:
Methods, apparatuses, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication in an unlicensed spectrum. In one method, a clear-to-send (CTS) signal may be employed to manage or otherwise limit potential interference for communications in the unlicensed spectrum. For example, communications using long term evolution (LTE) may employ an unlicensed spectrum, particularly for small cell deployment. In such case, the LTE communications may be protected from interference due to communications by other networks, such as WiFi, using the unlicensed spectrum.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for storing and deleting received data packets over combined vehicular and wireless communications networks. In one example, an apparatus in a vehicular communication network may receive a data packet and may determine whether to store or delete the received data packet based on a ratio of distances between the data packet and its destination address as well as the data packet's source address and its destination address.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may be a UE. The apparatus receives a safety message from a second UE. The received safety message includes a cluster indicator that indicates whether the received safety message is a first safety message type or a second safety message type. The first safety message type is associated with a single UE and the second safety message type is associated with multiple UEs. The apparatus determines whether the received safety message is the first safety message type or the second safety message type based on the cluster indicator included in the safety message. The apparatus determines whether a proximity condition between the apparatus and the second UE is satisfied based on the received safety message.

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for selecting data packets for forwarding in a vehicle network. In one example, a method includes receiving a first data packet at a first vehicle in a vehicular network and determining a geographic destination of the received first data packet. The method may also include forwarding the first data packet based at least in part on the geographic destination and a current wireless capacity of the vehicle network.
