Abstract:
1. A wireless communication method between a first network and a second network, wherein the first network comprises UEs including a first UE and a second UE, a gateway device, and a core network, comprising: enabling the gateway device to learn UE-related parameters of the UEs including operating modes, identity information, and connection status by selectively transmitting a first request to the core network or transmitting a second request to the UEs; enabling the gateway device to receive the UE-related parameters from the core network in terms of a first set of predetermined messages or from the UEs in terms of a second set of predetermined messages, and broadcast the UE-related parameters to the UEs in terms of a third set of predetermined messages; and enabling the gateway device to coordinate with the UEs allowing for the first UE to facilitate a communication with the second network through the second UE via the core network, depending on an interface operating status of the second UE and a spatial relationship between the first UE and the second UE.
