BEARER MANAGEMENT FOR PROSE DIRECT DISCOVERY

摘要

Methods, systems, and devices are described for improving resource management in wireless communications. More particularly, the methods systems and devices relate to techniques for suspending bearers when not required, for example, for D2D communications. In one example, a mobile device may send a connection request that indicates a service type. The connection request may be a service request (SR) or an extended service request (ESR). A set of bearers may be established for the intended communication(s). The indicated service type may not require all bearers of the set of bearers such that at least one bearer may be suspended.
