IMPROVED HANDLING OF SIMULTANEOUS NETWORK COMMUNICATION TRANSMISSION AND D2D COMMUNICATION RECEPTION OR SIMULTANEOUS NETWORK COMMUNICATION RECEPTION AND D2D COMMUNICATION TRANSMISSION

摘要

A radio frequency communication device (100, 320) comprising a radio frequency communications interface (130) and a controller (110), wherein said controller (110)is configured to: establish network communication with a network node (200, 310) and to establish device-to-device communication with a second radio frequency communication device (325) via said radio frequency communication interface (130). The controller is further configured to determine whether there is to be performed a simultaneous communication comprising a network transmission over said network communication with said network node (200, 310) and a D2D reception over said device-to-device communication with said second radio frequency communication device (325) or a network reception over said network communication with said network node (200, 310) and a D2D transmission over said device-to-device communication with said second radio frequency communication device (325); determine if there is a transmission problem related to said simultaneous communication; and if so determine a mitigation technique; and perform said network transmission and said D2D reception or said network reception and said D2D transmission according to said mitigation technique to mitigate said transmission problem.
