Abstract:
A method includes configuring one or multiple pools of Device-to-Device (D2D) communication resources by an eNodeB (eNB), signaling of the configured pool(s) of D2D communication resources by the eNB to a first User Equipment (UE) and a plurality of UEs using a common broadcast channel; sending a request for one or multiple D2D communication resources to an eNB by the first UE configured to transmit D2D messages; determining one or multiple resources for D2D communication by an eNB for the first UE; communicating D2D resource allocation information to the first UE; communicating D2D resource allocation information by the first UE to multiple UEs; and transmitting D2D data by the first UE to multiple UEs. Methods for configuring and signaling D2D communication resources by relay or out-of-coverage UEs are also considered.

Claim (Index 1):
A method, comprising:\n configuring one or more resource pools for device-to-device (D2D) communication by a base station; signaling, by the base station, information regarding the one or more configured resource pools for D2D communication to a first user equipment (UE) and a plurality of UEs using a broadcast channel; receiving, by the base station, a request for one or multiple D2D communication resources from the first UE, wherein the first UE is configured to transmit D2D messages; determining, by the base station, one or multiple resources for D2D communication for the first UE based on the request; and transmitting, by the base station, D2D resource allocation information on a downlink control channel to the first UE, wherein the D2D resource information includes information on resource block for D2D data and information on resource for D2D control channel.
