Publication number: 20200107181Abstract: There is provided a communication system in which a base station controls direct device to device (D2D) communication between communication devices. The base station transmits information identifying a pattern of radio frames designated for communicating D2D signals between communication devices. When the base station receives a request for allocation of resources for transmitting D2D signals by a communication device, it transmits, to the communication device, information identifying the communication resources allocated for the D2D signals within the designated radio frames responsive to the request. The base station also transmits, for receipt by at least one other communication device in a vicinity of the requesting communication device, an indication that D2D signals are to be transmitted.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 2, 2019Publication date: April 2, 2020Applicant: NEC CorporationInventors: Abdoulaye BAGAYOKO, Caroline JACTAT, Christian MOUTON, Lanto RAKOTOHARISON, Philippe DELAHAYE
