There are provided measures for mobility management for device-to-device communications. Such measures exemplarily include receiving a radio handover request message indicating that a radio handover of at least one communication endpoint utilizing device-to-device communication is to be hidden from core network, and determining, based on device-to-device context information, which is information on said device-to-device communication, and/or on information on said at least one communication endpoint, whether a notification of said radio handover is to be transmitted. |

1. A method comprising
receiving a radio handover request message indicating that a radio handover of at least one communication endpoint utilizing device-to-device communication is to be hidden from core network, and determining, based on device-to-device context information, which is information on said device-to-device communication, and/or on information on said at least one communication endpoint, whether a notification of said radio handover is to be transmitted, and enabling, upon determination that said notification of said radio handover is to be transmitted, transmission of a device-to-device information update request message indicative of said radio handover, and disabling, upon determination that said notification of said radio handover is not to be transmitted, said transmission of said device-to-device information update request message indicative of said radio handover, and providing at least one communication endpoint utilizing device-to-device communication with enhanced neighbor cell list information, wherein said enhanced neighbor cell list information comprises a neighbor cell list listing neighbor cells, and information regarding X2 interface availability with each of said neighbor cells, and transmitting said enhanced neighbor cell list information via at least one of a system information broadcast and a dedicated control signaling. |
