Abstract: A transportation vehicle, a system, apparatuses, methods, and a computer programs for user equipment and a network component of a mobile communication system. The method for a first user equipment (UE) of a first mobile communication system operated by a first operator includes transmitting information related to a subsequent direct communication with second user equipment to a network component of the first mobile communication system. The second UE is assigned to a second mobile communication system operated by a second operator. The method also includes receiving information related to a coordinating network component from the first network component. The coordinating network component is a network component of the first or the second mobile communication system. The method also includes receiving information related to radio resources to use for the communication with the second UE from the coordinating network component.

Abstract: A method, mobile radio station and computer program to perform a change of the mobile radio device category based on the state of the transportation vehicle. When the transportation vehicle is stopped, a lower mobile radio device category is selected, wherein the downlink and/or uplink data rates are reduced. This protects the battery of the transportation vehicle and improves the resource utilization in the mobile radio system.

Abstract: An apparatus, a method and a computer program for determining one or more radio resources to be used for performing a wireless communication over a sidelink of a mobile communication system. The method includes estimating a level of interference, selecting a way to determine the one or more radio resources based on the level of interference, and determining the one or more radio resources to be used for performing a wireless communication over the sidelink of the mobile communication system based on the selected method or mechanism. The way to determine the one or more radio resources based on the level of interference is selected from among elements of the group of using pre-defined radio resources, the group using a decentralized coordination of radio resources, and the group using a base station-based assignment of radio resources.
