UE, eNB and method for channel access priority for distributed D2D

摘要

Embodiments of an evolved Node B (eNB) and methods for determining priority values for User Equipment (UE) are generally described herein. A method performed by circuitry of an eNB may include receiving, at the eNB, a usage report from the UE. The usage report may include information indicating a channel usage time and a transmission power of the UE. The method may include determining, using the usage report, a priority value for the UE. The method may include sending the priority value to the UE, wherein the UE is to utilize the priority value to perform distributed scheduling of device-to-device (D2D) communication over a D2D connection with a second UE.

1. An evolved Node B (eNB), the eNB comprising:
hardware processing circuitry to: receive a usage report from a User Equipment (UE), wherein the usage report includes information indicating a channel usage time and a transmission power of the UE; determine, using the usage report, a priority value within a priority map for the UE by prioritizing lower channel usage time and lower transmission within the priority map; and send the priority value to the UE for use in device to device (D2D) communication with a second UE.
