- the PUE 100 receives the frequency identification information indicating the D2D resource pool in the macro cell.
- step S703 the PUE 100 starts monitoring the frequency band indicated by the frequency identification information. Specifically, the PUE 100 starts scanning for the frequency band of the D2D transmission resource pool included in the D2D resource pool.
- step S704 the MeNB 200 transmits the D2D resource pool in the macro cell to the MUE 100.
- step S705 the MUE 100 executes the D2D discovery procedure using the radio resource in the D2D transmission resource pool included in the received D2D resource pool. Specifically, the MUE 100 transmits a Discovery signal using the radio resource.
- the PUE 100 that is monitoring the frequency band of the D2D transmission resource pool in the macro cell receives the Discovery signal from the MUE 100 and discovers the MUE 100. Thereafter, D2D communication is started between the MUE 100 and the PUE 100.

For example, when the D2D resource in the pico cell includes the D2D resource that is not permitted in the macro cell, the MeNB 200 does not notify the UE 100 of information on the D2D resource that is not permitted.
- the fourth method even when the eNB 200 (MeNB200 / PeNB200) only notifies the UE (MUE100 / PUE100) of its own cell only the D2D resource set within the range in the allocated frequency band, D2D communication is possible between UEs residing in different cells.
- MeNB 200 may be reversed. That is, PeNB200 may transmit a D2D setting notification request to MeNB200. Further, the fourth method may be performed between the eNBs 200 having the same relationship.

To do. Similarly to the MeNB 200, the PeNB 200 may notify the PUE 100 of at least a part of the D2D resource information indicating the setting of the D2D resource in the cell having the mismatched operation frequency.
- the fifth method may be performed between the eNBs 200 that are in an equal relationship.
- the UE 100 uses not only the frequency (band) indicated by the D2D resource information but also a frequency band other than the frequency (band) indicated by the D2D resource information in the D2D proximity service (for example, D2D discovery procedure). , D2D communication, etc.).
- the D2D resource information is a list of frequencies that can be used in the D2D proximity service (D2D frequency list)
- the UE 100 transmits or receives a D2D radio signal at a frequency other than the frequencies present in the D2D frequency list. (Try).
- the UE 100 can use the D2D proximity service even at frequencies that are not indicated by the D2D frequency list.
- the eNB 200-1 belonging to the PLMN 1 broadcasts the D2D frequency list by the SIB 18, and the UE 100 located in the cell belonging to the frequency F1 of the PLMN 1 is changed from the eNB 200-1 (the cell)
- a D2D frequency list is received as D2D resource information.
- the D2D frequency list (hereinafter referred to as the first D2D frequency list) indicates the frequency F2 belonging to PLMN1 and the frequency F3 belonging to PLMN2 as usable D2D frequencies (bands) in the D2D proximity service (for example, in the D2D discovery procedure). Contains information.
- the UE 100 can find a cell belonging to the frequency F3 by cell search based on the first D2D frequency list.
- the UE 100 receives a D2D frequency list (hereinafter, a second D2D frequency list) from a cell (eNB 200-2) belonging to the frequency F3 of the PLMN2.
- the second frequency list includes information indicating the frequency F1 belonging to PLMN1 and the frequency F4 belonging to PLMN2.
- the UE 100 can transmit or receive the D2D discovery signal using the frequency F4 that is not included in the first D2D frequency list.
- the UE 100 may transmit or receive the D2D radio signal in a PLMN other than the PLMN to which the frequency existing in the D2D frequency list belongs.
- the UE 100 may have to transmit or receive a D2D radio signal only at a frequency that exists in the D2D frequency list. Since there is a high possibility that the D2D proximity service is not used at a frequency that does not exist in the D2D frequency list, the UE 100 can reduce transmission or reception of unnecessary D2D radio signals. Further, it is possible to reduce interference given to communication (for example, cellular communication) performed at a frequency that does not exist in the D2D frequency list. Therefore, the UE 100 may use a frequency that does not exist in the D2D frequency list only when use of a frequency that does not exist in the D2D frequency list is permitted (or not prohibited) from the network (including eNB). Good. Otherwise, the UE 100 may not use a frequency that does not exist in the D2D frequency list.
- the UE 100 may use a frequency that does not exist in the D2D frequency list only when use of a frequency that does not exist in the D2D frequency list is permitted (or not prohibited) from the network (including e
- the UE 100 may prioritize the frequencies. For example, the UE 100 may determine a frequency that exists in the D2D frequency list as a first priority frequency, and may determine a frequency that does not exist in the D2D frequency list as a second priority frequency. After transmitting or receiving the D2D radio signal at the first priority frequency, the UE 100 only when there is a transmission or reception opportunity of the D2D radio signal or when a transmission opportunity or reception opportunity of the D2D radio signal is added Only D2D radio signals may be transmitted or received at the second priority frequency.
- the UE 100 when the UE 100 receives the information indicating the priority (cellReselectionPriority) from the eNB 200 together with the frequency list indicating another frequency band different from the serving cell from the eNB 200, the UE 100 exists in the D2D frequency list based on the information indicating the priority. Priorities may be given to frequencies (and not present in the D2D frequency list). The UE 100 may prioritize frequencies that exist in the D2D frequency list (and do not exist in the D2D frequency list) based on setting values related to cell (re) selection, instead of information indicating priority.
- the UE 100 not only prioritizes frequencies, but priorities are assigned in advance to each of a plurality of frequencies present in the D2D frequency list received from the eNB 200 (for example, the serving cell and / or another cell). Also good. UE100 may receive the information which shows each priority of a some frequency from eNB200 with D2D frequency list. Alternatively, a plurality of frequencies existing in the D2D frequency list may be arranged in order of high priority (or low priority).
- the UE 100 may perform cell (re-) selection based on the priority order of the D2D frequency. For example, the UE 100 may preferentially select a cell that supports a D2D frequency with a high priority (that is, a cell whose own cell frequency (band) is a D2D frequency with a high priority). Alternatively, the UE 100 may not select a cell that supports a D2D frequency with a low priority (that is, a cell whose own cell frequency (band) is a D2D frequency with a low priority).
- the UE 100 may use a value according to the priority order of the D2D frequency as an offset value of a determination formula for cell (re) selection (for example, Srxlev, Squal, Rs, Rn, etc.).
- UE100 may acquire an offset value from eNB200 by SIB with a D2D frequency list.
- the UE 100 not only directly uses the D2D resource information (information included in the D2D resource notification) for the D2D proximity service (for example, monitoring of the D2D discovery signal), but also for other uses (for example, , Cell selection).
- the UE 100 may perform cell (re-) selection according to interest in the D2D proximity service. For example, if the UE 100 is interested in transmission in the D2D proximity service, the UE 100 may preferentially select a cell that supports the D2D frequency existing in the D2D frequency list. In addition, when the UE 100 is only interested in reception in the D2D proximity service, the UE 100 may select and camp on a cell that supports the D2D frequency. Even if the UE 100 is only interested in reception in the D2D proximity service, it is of course possible to perform cell selection as usual and monitor at frequencies existing in the D2D frequency list.
- UE100 when UE100 receives D2D resource information from each of a some cell (plural eNB200), UE100 performs D2D vicinity service based on the received several D2D resource information. May be used.
- the UE 100 uses the frequencies existing in at least one of the plurality of D2D frequency lists (for example, all frequencies indicated by OR operation (logical sum)) , D2D wireless signals may be transmitted or received. Accordingly, since the UE 100 can use the maximum number of frequencies that can be used in the D2D proximity service, many UEs can be counterpart terminals of the D2D proximity service.
- UE100 may transmit or receive a D2D radio signal in the frequency (for example, all the frequencies shown by AND operation (logical product)) which exists in common in a plurality of D2D frequency lists. Thereby, UE100 can use the frequency with the highest possibility of being used.
- the UE 100 calculates a difference between a plurality of D2D frequency lists, and sets the frequencies that exist only in each of the plurality of D2D frequency lists (for example, all frequencies indicated by an XOR operation (exclusive OR)) to the eNB 200 (for example, , Serving cell).

- the ProSe instruction is a message including interest information about the D2D proximity service (information indicating that the user is interested in the D2D proximity service / information indicating that the D2D proximity service is no longer interested).
- the UE 100 # 1a may transmit the second D2D resource information to the eNB 200 # 1 in response to an individual request (inquiry) from the eNB 200 # 1. Or UE100 # 1a may transmit 2nd D2D resource information to eNB200 # 1 based on the information (for example, SIB) broadcast from eNB200 # 1. For example, when the information broadcast from the eNB 200 # 1 includes information requesting the report of the second D2D resource information, the UE 100 # 1a may transmit the second D2D resource information to the eNB 200 # 1. Otherwise, the UE 100 # 1a does not have to transmit the second D2D resource information to the eNB 200 # 1.
- the UE 100 # 1a receives the second D2D resource received from the eNB 200 # 2 only when the second D2D resource information received from the eNB 200 # 1 is different from the second D2D resource information received from the eNB 200 # 2.
- Information may be transmitted to the eNB 200 # 1. Thereby, it can avoid that all UE100 which exists in eNB200 # 1 reports D2D resource information received from the other eNB.

May be. Specifically, when the SIB change period has expired, the eNB 200 # 1 does not include information requesting to report the second D2D resource information in the broadcast information, and the SIB change period has not expired. Information for requesting the report of the second D2D resource information may be included in the broadcasted information.

- [Appendix] [1] Introduction Agreement-Supports inter-Frequency and inter-PLMN discovery for monitoring UEs.
- the eNB (if possible, with the corresponding PLMN ID) a list of carriers (intra-PLMN-inter-frequency and / or inter-PLMN-inter-frequency) that the UE attempts to receive the ProSe discovery signal in SIB May be provided.
- the cell does not provide detailed ProSe settings (SIB18) for other carriers. If the UE wants to receive a ProSe discovery signal on another carrier, it needs to read the SIB 18 (and other related SIBs) from that other carrier.
- Whether there is an option (as a setting) that the eNB may provide detailed ProSe discovery information for other intra-PLMN carriers is an FFS (further challenge).
- the UE sends a ProSe discovery signal only on the serving cell (if allowed by the network).
- Intra- and inter-frequency (and inter-PLMN) ProSe reception does not affect Uu reception (eg, UE uses DRX opportunities in idle state and connected state to perform ProSe discovery reception) Or use a second RX chain if available).
- the UE should not create an autonomous gap.
- Proposal 1 At least in Release 12, it should be assumed that only the RAN provides a list of inter-PLMN frequencies that support ProSe discovery.
- the UE may monitor the discovery signal transmitted on the additional ProSe carrier.
- the UE is allowed to receive another permission regardless of whether the frequency is in the list of SIBs 18 received from PLMN1 or PLMN2 only if the UE has permission from the higher layer and does not affect Uu reception. It may be further determined whether to monitor the discovery signal at the PLMN (ie, PLMN 3 not depicted in FIG. 21).
- Proposal 2 The UE is not requested from the serving cell to match a carrier other than the ProSe carrier existing in the SIB18 list. Furthermore, there is no restriction on the UE monitoring frequencies that are not present in the serving cell SIB18 list.
- ProSe reception does not affect Uu reception (for example, UE performs ProSe discovery reception) To use DRX opportunities in idle and connected state, or to use a second RX chain when available).
- the main purpose of this agreement is to avoid the UE using an autonomous gap for ProSe discovery. This means that the gap set by the eNB (eNB-configured gap) is based on the existing mechanism for the measurement gap procedure and is not considered to affect Uu reception.
- Confirmation 1 A gap clearly set from the eNB is not considered to affect Uu reception.
- ProSe discovery using only DRX opportunities may result in a decrease in discovery probability, that is, best effort discovery.
- a UE with dual Rx chain capability has an additional advantage, but currently assumes a single receiver for discovery. Furthermore, it is assumed that a non-public safety UE may not be able to receive simultaneously on the DL and UL spectrum of an FDD carrier that supports D2D proximity services.
- the discovery opportunity should be based on the existing gap mechanism.
- the serving cell should have detailed ProSe discovery information for other inter-PLMN carriers in order to set appropriate parameters for UEs interested in Discovery monitoring. It is. Since it has been agreed that the UE needs to read the SIB 18 of the other Inter-PLMN carrier in order to monitor the discovery signal transmitted on the other Inter-PLMN carrier, the UE has already acquired It will be assumed that it is necessary to have the ability to notify the serving cell of detailed ProSe discovery information about other inter-PLMN carriers.
- the serving cell does not have any detailed ProSe discovery configuration information between interested PLMNs, ie there is no network level coordination (ie sharing detailed discovery information between OAMs or RANs)
- the following two options are considered as options for the serving cell to obtain this information before deciding whether to set a gap for the UE:
- Option 1 The UE transfers a part or all of the SIB 18 received from the inter-PLMN cell (a cell belonging to a different PLMN) to the serving cell.
- a further issue is when the UE has to send inter-PLMN SIB18 information to the serving cell.
- Option 2 The UE notifies the serving cell of possible gap opportunities, eg, the gap pattern determined by the UE based on the SIB 18 received from the inter-PLMN cell.
- Option 1 is more preferable than Option 1 from the viewpoint of signaling overhead because the UE may need to transfer multiple SIBs 18 to the serving cell.
- Option 2 only requires the UE to inform the serving cell of the desired gap pattern. Whether the serving cell can indicate whether inter-PLMN coordination between NWs can be assumed or whether the NW can determine whether UE assistance is required for inter-PLMN discovery is a further issue. is there.
- Proposal 3 The serving cell should set a gap for Inter-PLMN discovery monitoring (receiving discovery signals between different PLMNs) in the UE.
- the setting may be based on a gap pattern requested from the UE.
- eNB may provide detailed ProSe discovery information for other intra-PLMN carriers is FFS.
- the serving cell is the neighbor regardless of whether the serving cell directly provides detailed ProSe discovery information of neighboring cells to the UE. It may be assumed that the cell has detailed ProSe discovery information.
- the FFS suggests that the serving cell may not only provide its own SIB 18, but may also provide detailed ProSe discovery information for other intra-PLMN frequencies.
- the significance of the FFS is not whether the serving cell can provide ProSe discovery information of an inter-frequency cell (different frequency cell) to the UE, but that the serving cell can actually cooperate with the inter-frequency cell.
- the serving cell can set an appropriate gap for the UE for inter-frequency ProSe discovery without providing detailed ProSe discovery information.
- Table 1 compares two cases: (1) the UE directly acquires SIB18 from other carriers (baseline), and (2) the UE acquires SIB18 information only from its serving cell (FFS). Show.
- the FFS scheme (Case 2) has the advantage of reducing UE complexity and allowing network configurable operation.
- the baseline scheme (Case 1) relies on existing DRX mechanisms. Thus, even if the UE obtains the SIB 18 directly from another carrier, that information is not at all useful for the UE if the discovery opportunities are very limited. Therefore, as a configuration option, we propose that the eNB has the ability to provide detailed ProSe discovery information for other intra-PLMN frequencies (same PLMN frequency).
- the eNB may provide detailed ProSe discovery information about other Intra-PLMN carriers via SIB and / or individual signals as configuration options.
- Proposal 4 cannot be agreed, it is possible to consider alternative schemes. As shown in Table 1, network-configurable discovery opportunities are beneficial to ensure discovery performance as well as a reduction in UE complexity. It may be assumed that the serving cell may acquire SIB18 information of the inter-frequency neighbor cell via the OAM. In this alternative, not only does the serving cell not provide the entire contents of the SIB 18 on other Intra-PLMN frequencies, but the UE does not need to inform the serving cell of some or all of the SIB 18 on other carriers. However, the serving cell has the ability to set a gap for the discovery monitor in the UE. This alternative scheme can be a compromise, since the drawbacks (signaling load) can be removed.
- Proposal 5 Even if the serving cell cannot agree to provide detailed ProSe discovery information to the UE, the serving cell should set an appropriate gap for discovery monitoring in the UE.
- FIG. 22 shows an example of a case where a monitor UE camping on a serving cell that does not support ProSe discovery wants to know a list of carriers that support ProSe discovery.
- the serving cell provides a list of carriers in the SIB
- the operation of the monitor UE is similar to the agreed inter-frequency discovery.
- Proposal 6 Serving cells that do not support ProSe discovery on their carriers should also provide a list of other ProSe carriers (and detailed ProSe discovery information (if Proposal 4 is agreed)) in SIB.
- the UE sends the ProSe instructions to the serving cell in order to notify the intent regarding discovery for both ProSe discovery (D2D discovery procedure) and communication (D2D communication) It was done.
- the eNB operation that receives the ProSe indication includes an option for handover that moves the UE to a carrier that supports ProSe communication.
- the NW operation for receiving the ProSe instruction is still unclear. Therefore, the UE operation is also unclear, for example, the trigger for the UE to send a ProSe indication is unclear.
- Proposal 7 The operation expected from the NW that receives the ProSe instruction related to discovery should be considered.
- the eNB assigns the UE to allocate a carrier depending on whether the UE indicates “interested” or “no longer interested” in the ProSe indication message for discovery. It may be moved (ie, handed over).
- the eNB receives the ProSe indication that the UE is interested in inter-frequency discovery and then receives the DRX parameter or (if Proposal 3, 4 Or (if 5 is acceptable) any of the gap updates may be reconfigured in the UE.
- the serving cell Upon receiving the ProSe instruction for discovery, the serving cell has the option to perform handover and / or change the DRX of the UE to assist the discovery monitor.
- the ProSe instruction for communication is desired to support ProSe communication including transmission and reception It is agreed to include the ProSe frequency.
- the ProSe indication contains the desired frequency. For example, if the UE indicates that the frequency of interest is the serving frequency, it is likely that no handover is required.
- the serving cell needs to provide the UE with a gap for handing over the UE to the frequency of interest or at least monitoring the discovery on that frequency. May be.
- the UE may not have a preference for the frequency of interest, but in the future application-specific frequencies will be indicated in higher layers, or the UE will keep historical information about discovery at a particular frequency There is a possibility. For example, if a serving cell sets a gap for a UE on a particular frequency and the UE can receive a discovery signal of interest on that frequency, the serving cell indicates to the serving cell the frequency of interest, It is then useful to prevent the UE from setting gaps for different frequencies that are not of interest.
- the method by which the UE indicates interest in the inter-frequency discovery monitor, for example, whether the UE just sends the serving frequency as the frequency of interest is FFS.
- Proposal 8 It should allow the UE to include the frequency list of interest in the ProSe instructions.
- the serving cell can know that the ProSe instruction notifies the interest regarding the inter-PLMN discovery using means for comparing the frequency list of the ProSe instruction and the list of its SIB 18. If Proposal 3 for obtaining information for setting the gap is acceptable, the serving cell receives the ProSe indication indicating the inter-PLMN discovery monitor and then performs inter-PLMN discovery monitor on the UE. Appropriate actions should be taken.
- Proposal 9 In addition to intra- or inter-frequency discovery, ProSe instructions for notifying the intention regarding reception of inter-PLMN discovery should be permitted.
- the UE auxiliary information is only intended for a request for transmission resources in an intra-frequency operation.
- the ProSe instruction may have many functions including an inter-frequency operation.
- the eNB and / or UE operation is consistent, there is no reason to have two independent messages for similar functionality. If Proposition 11 is acceptable, such a conflict may occur when the ProSe indication indicates that it is interested in an intra-frequency discovery announcement, but it can be distinguished by the type of serving cell that receives the indication. is there. That is, if it is a ProSe support cell, a Type 2B resource is allocated, and if it is a non-ProSe support cell, a handover can be started. Therefore, it is preferable to unify both messages into one message.
- Proposal 10 One RRC message should be introduced to unify existing functions assigned to UE auxiliary information as baseline.
- the UE can be handed over to a non-ProSe supported cell (probably one cell that is less congested) and the UE It may be appropriate to allow the use of a second receiver for monitoring.
- Proposal 11 The UE should notify the serving cell of the intention for the discovery announcement.
- Confirmation 2 The UE is not required to camp on a cell that supports ProSe discovery (see FIG. 23) when attempting UE inter-frequency (and inter-PLMN) discovery monitoring.
- the load balance between the frequency cells may be optimized.
- existing reselection procedures and priorities need to be changed to accommodate UEs that are interested in discovery monitors.
- the reselection procedure and priority are considered, taking into account the idle mode load balance issues specifically set for the UE via the cell reselection priority provided by the SIB5 or individual signals. Changes need to be carefully considered.
- the UE should follow the existing reselection priority set by the eNB.
- the idle UE is interested in ProSe discovery, it should be further considered whether to allow the ProSe discovery to be prioritized over the existing cell reselection procedure. If the inter-frequency cell is not synchronized with the serving cell, it should be considered whether the existing DRX opportunities are sufficient for discovery monitoring on other frequencies. In addition, if a UE interested in a ProSe discovery monitor also tends to be interested in a ProSe discovery announcement, it may be better for the UE to camp on a cell operating on a carrier on the SIN18 list. . This is because reselection can be avoided before transmitting the discovery signal.
- ProSe carriers need to be prioritized depends on the premise regarding UEs that are interested in ProSe discovery monitors.
- Proposal 12 The UE should be allowed to prioritize for ProSe discovery during cell reselection.

合意事項
・モニタUE(monitoring UE)のためにinter-Frequenvy及びinter-PLMN discoveryをサポートする。
この章では、inter-frequency/inter-PLMN discoveryを考察する。
inter-PLMNキャリアに関して、上位レイヤが、他のProSeキャリアのリストを代わりに提供できるかどうかは、FFSである。これは、サービングセルが所定の理由のためにSIB18を提供できない場合に、UEにとって有益な可能性がある。しかしながら、既存のコンセプトを引き継ぐために、RAN(無線アクセスネットワーク)自身が、自身のセルの動作周波数を決定して、且つ、どのキャリアがdiscoveryをサポートするかを決定する責任を有さなくてはならない。さらに、現時点では、上位レイヤ、すなわち、ProSe機能は、ProSe discovery(D2D発見手順)のためのキャリアのリストを提供できない、すなわち、E-UTRANがサービスを提供できない時にProSe直接通信に使用される無線パラメータのみが提供されてもよい。そのような上位レイヤ信号を導入した場合、RANとProSe機能との間の追加のインターフェイスの導入が必要となる。従って、少なくともリリース12では、上位レイヤによって提供されるinter-PLMN ProSe discoveryのための他のキャリアのリストをサポートすべきでないということを提案する。
(2.2.1)ProSe discoveryキャリアのリストを受信する上でのUE動作
UEがProSe discovery信号の受信を目的にできるキャリアのリストを、eNBはSIBで提供してもよい。これは、当該リストを制限するものであるか、当該リストがUEを補助するものであるかの一方又は両方のように思える。inter-PLMN discovery信号のモニタは、既存のPLMN選択手順の後に実行されるので、より明確にリストを受信する上でのUE動作を定義する必要がある。リストが、モニタUEの不必要な電力消費を減少させるための単なる補助情報である、すなわち、UEは、リストで提供されたキャリア上で送信されたProSe discovery信号のみをモニタしてもしなくてもよい、ことが好ましいと理解する。これは、例えば、図21に示すように、他のPLMN(すなわち、PLMN2)のSIB18におけるリストに存在し、サービングセル(すなわち、PLMN1)のSIB18のリストには存在しない追加のProSeキャリア(D2D周波数)に、UEが気付いた場合、当該UEは、追加のProSeキャリア上で送信されたdiscovery信号をモニタしてもよいことを意味している。さらに、UEが上位レイヤから許可を得ており、且つ、Uu受信に影響を与えない場合に限り、PLMN1又はPLMN2から受信したSIB18のリストに存在する周波数かどうかに関係なく、UEは、さらに他のPLMN(すなわち、図21には描かれていないPLMN3)でdiscovery信号をモニタするかどうかをさらに決定してもよい。
上述の合意事項では、ProSe受信は、Uu受信に影響を与えない(例えば、UEが、ProSe discovery受信を実行するために、アイドル及び接続状態でDRX機会を利用したり、利用可能な場合は第2のRXチェインを使用したりする)ことが表明されている。この合意の主な目的は、UEがProSe discoveryのための自律的なギャップを使用することを避けるためである。これは、eNBから設定されたギャップ(eNB-configured gap)は、メジャメントギャップ手順に関する既存のメカニズムに基づいており、Uu受信に影響を与えると見なされないことを意味する。
この章では、inter-frequency/intra-PLMN discoveryを考察する。
(3.2.1)自身のキャリアでProSe discoveryをサポートしないサービングセルが他のProSeキャリアのリストを提供できるかどうか
eNBは、(可能であれば、対応するPLMN IDと共に)UEがProSe discovery信号の受信を試みるキャリア(intra-PLMN-inter-frequency及び/又はinter-PLMN-inter-frequency)のリストをSIBで提供してもよいことが合意されているが、図22に示すように、自身のキャリアでProSe discoveryをサポートしないセービングセルが他のProSeキャリアのリストを提供できるかどうかを明確にすべきである。
ProSe discovery(D2D発見手順)及びcommunication(D2D通信)の両方に関して、UEがdiscoveryに関する意図を通知するためにProSe指示をサービングセルに送ることが合意された。ProSe communicationに関して、ProSe指示を受信するeNB動作は、ProSe communicationをサポートするキャリアへUEを移動させるハンドオーバに関するオプションを含む。しかしながら、ProSe discoveryに関して、ProSe指示を受信するNW動作はまだ不明確である。従って、UE動作もまた不明確であり、例えば、UEがProSe指示を送信するトリガが不明確である。
(3.2.3.1)周波数情報
discoveryに関して考察されていないが、communicationのためのProSe指示が、送信及び受信を含むProSe communicationをサポートするための所望のProSe周波数を含むことは、合意されている。discovery目的に関して、ProSe指示が所望の周波数を含むこともまた利点がある。例えば、興味のある周波数がサービング周波数であることをUEが示す場合、ハンドオーバは必要とされない可能性が高い。
ProSe指示と同様の機能性に関して、ProSe discoveryリソースを要求するためにUE補助情報メッセージを再利用することが、ベースラインとして合意され、それは、Type2B discovery(すなわち、各UE個別にdiscovery信号のアナウンスのためのリソースが割り当てられる手順)のための送信リソースの要求にのみ関して基本的に前提としていた。従って、ProSe指示をベースライン合意と統一すべきかどうかが課題である。表2に機能がリストアップされている。
モニタに関する意図を通知するためのdiscoveryのためのProSe指示が合意された。UEがdiscoveryアナウンス(送信)を実行したいが非ProSeサポートセル(すなわち、ProSe近傍サービスをサポートしていないセル)に現在接続しているケース(図22参照)において、UEのためにそのような行き詰まった状況への対処法を考察すべきである。可能な解決法は、サービングセルがProSeサポートキャリアへのハンドオーバを実行することをUEが期待しており、UEがProSe指示で当該アナウンス意図をサービングセルに通知することかもしれない。この通知によって、サービングセルは、例えば、UEをProSeサポートセルにハンドオーバさせる必要があるかどうかを決定できる。UEが二重に受信機を備えており、且つdiscoveryアナウンスの意図を有さないケースでは、UEを非ProSeサポートセル(おそらく、より輻輳していない1つのセル)にハンドオーバさせて、UEがdiscoveryモニタのために第2の受信機を使用することを許可することが適切かもしれない。
RRCアイドルUEにおける優先処理を考察する前に、inter-frequency discoveryをサポートする方法を明確にすべきである。MBMSケースにおいて、MBMS受信を試みるUEは、単一の受信機を備えている場合に限り、UEは興味のあるMBMSサービスを提供しているセルにキャンプする必要がある。一方で、「intra-及びinter-frequency(及びinter-PLMN) ProSe受信は、Uu受信に影響を与えない(例えば、UEが、ProSe discovery受信を実行するために、アイドル及び接続状態でDRX機会を利用したり、利用可能な場合は第2のRXチェインを使用したりする)。UEは、自律的なギャップを作り出すべきではない。」によれば、discoveryモニタは、ProSe discoveryをサポートするセルにキャップすることを要求していないように思える。これは、既存のinter-frequency測定におけるCRS受信と同様のアプローチである可能性が高い。しかしながら、UEがinter-frequency discoveryモニタのためにそのセルにキャンプすることを要求されるか否かがまだ明確でない。
[4]結論
この付記では、inter-frequency及びinter-PLMN discoveryに関する未解決の課題を考察し、現在の合意の明確性を与えている。discoveryモニタ手順及びProSe指示に関する拡張の必要性を主張している。さらに、既存のセル再選択手順への考慮を与えている。
