METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ADVANCED TOPOLOGY (AT) POLICY MANAGEMENT FOR DIRECT COMMUNICATION BETWEEN WIRELESS TRANSMIT/RECEIVE UNITS (WTRUs)

摘要

A method and apparatus for advanced topology (AT) policy management for direct communication between wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) is described. A WTRU configured to communicate directly with at least one other WTRU in an AT mode of operation includes a memory, a central processing unit and an AT policy unit that is separate from the CPU. The AT policy unit is configured to store at least one AT policy in the memory, activate and de-activate an AT application that runs the AT mode of operation based on the at least one AT policy stored in the memory, receive data from at least one application within the WTRU other than the AT application, and control the at least one application within the WTRU other than the AT application based on the at least one AT policy stored in the memory.
