METHODS FOR DEVICE-TO-DEVICE COMMUNICATION

摘要

A method in a first user equipment and a method in a network element, in which a first user equipment, UE, and a second UE communicate with a network element over a carrier. The first and second UEs also engage in device-to-device, D2D, communication using resources of the carrier that have been allocated to them by the network entity. Using the allocated resources, the first and second UEs communicate using a subframe that has a first set of symbols (802) during which the first UE transmits, a second set of symbols (806) during which the second UE transmits, and a guard interval (804) between the transmission periods of the first and second UEs.
