METHOD OF SHARING A UE RECEIVER BETWEEN D2D AND CELLULAR OPERATIONS BASED ON ACTIVITY

摘要

Systems and methods are disclosed for utilizing non-overlapping time periods within one or more Discontinuous Reception (DRX) cycles configured for a Device-to- Device (D2D) capable wireless device for different types of operations. In some embodiments, these different types of operations are cellular and D2D operations such that the D2D capable wireless device performs cellular and D2D operations (e.g., reception of cellular and D2D signals) during non-overlapping time periods during one or more DRX cycles. In this manner, a D2D capable wireless device that, for example, can only receive one type of signal at a time is enabled to receive both cellular and D2D signals.
