Proximity Signaling and Procedure for LTE

Abstract:

In some examples, a network node receives, from a first user equipment (UE), a report indicating that the first UE received a proximity beacon from a second UE and indicating a transmission opportunity during which the proximity beacon was received. In response to receiving the report at the network node, the network node transmits, to the first UE, an identity associated with the second UE according to contents of the proximity beacon.
