COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, NETWORK NODE, COMMUNICATION DEVICE, METHODS AND COMPUTER PROGRAMS

摘要

The disclosure relates to aspects of a communication system comprising a cellular communication network and at least a communication device interacting with the cellular communication network. The cellular communication network comprises at least a network node configured to receive, from the communication device, signalling about carrier aggregation communication capabilities suitable for D2D and carrier aggregation communication of the communication device; determine a configuration for the communication device regarding D2D communication and carrier aggregation based on at least the received signalling; and transmit the configuration to the communication device. The communication device is capable of D2D communication within a cellular communication system framework and capable of carrier aggregation for cellular communication, and is configured to determine carrier aggregation communication capabilities suitable for D2D communication and carrier aggregation; and signal the carrier aggregation communication capabilities to the network node.
