Control information exchange for control of D2D communication A first D2D communication device () receives first information from one or more second D2D communication devices (). The first information indicates control information for one or more links from the respective second D2D communication device (). Based on the indicated control information, the first D2D communication device () determines control information for one or more links from the first D2D communication device ().

Control information exchange for control of D2D communication

Methods, a data split unit () and a data collection unit (), for controlling data transmission over two connections used for communication of data from the data split unit to the data collection unit operating in dual connection mode. The data split unit obtains (2:4) a receive split ratio between the two connections as perceived at the data collection unit, and adapts (2:5) a transmit split ratio for distributing data over the two connections based on the receive split ratio. The transmit split ratio may be adapted to reduce or eliminate a difference between the transmit split ratio and the receive split ratio. The transmission of data is then distributed (2:7A,B) over the two connections according to the adapted transmit split ratio.
