Abstract
The devices, systems, and methods discussed herein include a first user equipment (UE) device receiving, from a base station, configuration information instructing the first UE device to randomize selection of a discovery resource pool for discovery transmissions. The first UE device randomly selects the discovery resource pool from a plurality of discovery resource pools. At least one of the plurality of discovery resource pools is a discovery resource pool that is separate from a data resource pool, and at least one of the plurality of discovery resource pools is a shared discovery and data resource pool.
Claims12
A first user equipment (UE) device comprising:
- a receiver configured to receive, from a base station, configuration information instructing the first UE device to randomize selection of a discovery resource pool for discovery transmissions;
- and
- a controller configured to randomly select the discovery resource pool from a plurality of discovery resource pools, at least one of the plurality of discovery resource pools is a discovery resource pool that is separate from a data resource pool, at least one of the plurality of discovery resource pools is a shared discovery and data resource pool.
A method comprising:
- receiving, at a first user equipment (UE) device from a base station, configuration information instructing the first UE device to randomize selection of a discovery resource pool for discovery transmissions;
- and
- randomly selecting the discovery resource pool from a plurality of discovery resource pools, at least one of the plurality of discovery resource pools is a discovery resource pool that is separate from a data resource pool, at least one of the plurality of discovery resource pools is a shared discovery and data resource pool.
