Patent ID: 10306452

Abstract:
Resource allocation techniques for device-to-device (D2D) discovery are described. In one embodiment, for example, user equipment (UE) may comprise at least one radio frequency (RF) transceiver to receive device-to-device (D2D) configuration information comprising a D2D discovery period index value for a first D2D discovery period and logic, at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to determine a D2D discovery period index value for a second D2D discovery period based on the D2D discovery period index value for the first D2D discovery period and determine a set of D2D discovery resource allocation parameters for the second D2D discovery period based on a set of D2D discovery resource allocation parameters for the first D2D discovery period and the D2D discovery period index value for the second D2D discovery period. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
