Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif de transmission d'informations d'allocation de ressources. Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : un eNB source transmet des informations de type Dispositif à Dispositif (D2D) à un eNB cible ; et l'eNB source reçoit des informations d'allocation de ressources D2D en provenance de l'eNB cible, et informe un Équipement Utilisateur (UE) des informations d'allocation de ressources D2D. L'eNB cible agence les informations d'allocation de ressources D2D pour l'UE selon les informations de type D2D, ce qui permet de résoudre un problème selon lequel une technique classique est incapable d'assurer la continuité d'un service D2D lorsqu'un UE bascule entre divers scénarios de double connectivité, et par conséquent d'assurer efficacement la continuité d'un service D2D lorsqu'un UE du type à double connectivité bascule entre divers scénarios.
