METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING DEVICE TO DEVICE (D2D) CONTENT ESTIMATION AND TRIGGERING OF BUFFER STATUS REPORTING (BSR) IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method and apparatus are disclosed for performing buffer status reporting in a wireless communication system. The method includes a D2D (Device-to-Device) data arriving in the UE (1405). The method also includes triggering a ProSe (Proximity-based Service) BSR (Buffer Status Report) (1410). The method further includes deriving a buffer size value by at least considering an amount of oncoming data (1415). In addition, the method includes sending the ProSe BSR (1430).
