Base station and user terminal

Abstract

A base station according to a first aspect allocates a gap pattern to a user terminal connected to an own cell based on a message received from the user terminal, the gap pattern defines timings in which the user terminal should monitor D2D signals transmitted from other user terminals at different frequencies than a frequency of the own cell. The base station includes a transmitter that transmits feedback control information to the user terminal, the feedback control information used to determine whether or not it is necessary for the user terminal to include, in the message, feedback corresponding to system information that is received by the user terminal at the different frequencies.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
