Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are disclosed to establish proximity service communication between a first user equipment (UE) and a second UE. The method includes receiving, by the first UE, a signaling transmitted by an evolved Node B (eNB) to provide a radio resource for the first UE to transmit data directly to the second UE, wherein an indication of a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) is included in the signaling. The method further includes transmitting, by the first UE, data via the radio resource to the second UE, wherein the data is scrambled by the RNTI.
Claims20
A method for establishing proximity service communication between a first user equipment (UE) and a second UE, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the first UE, a signaling transmitted by an evolved Node B (eNB) to provide a radio resource for the first UE to transmit data directly to the second UE, wherein an indication of a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) is included in the signaling;
- and
- transmitting, by the first UE, data via the radio resource to the second UE, wherein the data is scrambled by the RNTI.
A communication device for establishing proximity service communication between the communication device and a user equipment (UE), the communication device comprising:
- a control circuit;
- a processor installed in the control circuit;
- a memory installed in the control circuit and operatively coupled to the processor;
- wherein the processor is configured to execute a program code stored in memory to establish the proximity service communication by:
- receiving a signaling transmitted by an evolved Node B (eNB) to provide a radio resource for the communication device to transmit data directly to the UE, wherein an indication of a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) is included in the signaling;
- and
- transmitting data via the radio resource to the UE, wherein the data is scrambled by the RNTI.
A method for establishing proximity service communication between a first user equipment (UE) and a second UE, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the first UE, a first signaling transmitted by an evolved Node B (eNB) to provide a radio resource for the first UE to transmit data directly to the second UE;
- transmitting, by the first UE, a second signaling to the second UE to inform the second UE to receive data directly transmitted from the first UE;
- and
- transmitting, by the first UE, the data via the radio resource to the second UE.
A communication device for establishing proximity service communication between the communication device and a user equipment (UE), the communication device comprising:
- a control circuit;
- a processor installed in the control circuit;
- a memory installed in the control circuit and operatively coupled to the processor;
- wherein the processor is configured to execute a program code stored in memory to establish the proximity service communication by:
- receiving a first signaling transmitted by an evolved Node B (eNB) to provide a radio resource for the communication device to transmit data directly to the UE;
- transmitting a second signaling to the UE to inform the UE to receive data directly transmitted from the communication device;
- and
- transmitting the data via the radio resource to the UE.
