Abstract
[Object] To be able to perform management involved with wireless communication without routing via a base station. [Solution] Provided is an apparatus including: a generation unit configured to generate information related to data wirelessly transmitted or received without being routed via a base station; and a control unit configured to control transmission of the information to a node which is not involved in the transmission or reception of the data.
Claims17
An apparatus that communicates with a base station that services the apparatus and a second apparatus, the apparatus comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to
- generate information related to data, the data being wirelessly transmitted to or received from a second apparatus on a frequency band via device-to-device (D2D) communication and without being routed via a base station, the frequency band being a component carrier used in wireless communication with the base station, and the information relating to an application corresponding to the data;
- wirelessly transmit the data to or receive the data from the second apparatus by D2D communication on the frequency band;
- and
- control transmission of the information to a node which is not involved in the wireless transmission or reception of the data, the node being separate from the second apparatus and the base station.
A non-transitory computer readable medium that stores a program which, when executed by a processor of an apparatus that communicates with a base station that services the apparatus and a second apparatus, causes the processor to:
- generate information related to data, the data being wirelessly transmitted to or received from a second apparatus on a frequency band via device-to-device (D2D) communication and without being routed via a base station, the frequency band being a component carrier used in wireless communication with the base station, and the information relating to an application corresponding to the data;
- receiving wirelessly transmit the data to or receive the data from the second apparatus by D2D communication on the frequency band;
- and
- controlling transmission of the information to a node which is not involved in the wireless transmission or reception of the data, the node being separate from the second apparatus and the base station.
A method performed by an apparatus that communicates with a base station that services the apparatus and a second apparatus, the method comprising:
- generating, by the apparatus, information related to data, the data being wirelessly transmitted to or received from a second apparatus on a frequency band via device-to-device (D2D) communication and without being routed via a base station, the frequency band being a component carrier used in wireless communication with the base station, and the information relating to an application corresponding to the data;
- wirelessly transmitting the data to or receiving the data from the second apparatus by D2D communication on the frequency band;
- and
- controlling transmission of the information to a node which is not involved in the wireless transmission or reception of the data, the node being separate from the second apparatus and the base station.
