METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RECEPTION OF A DOWNLINK CONTROL INFORMATION (DCI) FOR DEVICE-TO-DEVICE (D2D) RESOURCE SCHEDULING

摘要

A method and apparatus for reception of a DCI for D2D resource scheduling. In one embodiment, the method includes a UE (User Equipment) receiving from a network a DCI addressed to a D2D RNTI (Radio Network Temporary Identifier) for D2D resource scheduling, wherein the D2D RNTI is allocated to the UE by the network. The method also includes the UE transmitting an acknowledgement to the network in response to reception of the DCI if the DCI is used to initialize a D2D resource.
