Proximity determination to a geo-fence

Abstract:

Techniques for device to device (D2D) wireless communication are provided. In an aspect, a first user equipment (UE) receives device-to-device (D2D) information from a second user equipment (UE). The first UE determines whether the first UE is within a threshold range from the second UE based on the D2D information. Application layer processing is enabled for a message in the D2D information, if the first UE is within the threshold range. The message is blocked from the application layer, if the first UE is not within the threshold range from the second UE.
