GNB coordinated device to device communication

Abstract:

Systems and methods establishing and maintain a direct User Equipment to User Equipment communication link in a gNB are disclosed. A gNB may determine that direct UE to UE link should be established in a cell. The gNB may transmit information to a first and second UE to enable a device to device beam search procedure. The first and second UE may perform the beam search and report the result to the gNB. The gNB may determine the appropriate beam for the first and second UE to establish a communication link.
